I'm off to the land of the Luddites again today for 2 weeks this time. I really must stop calling my friends that since they are on the net now and I will have total access to it.

I delivered my suitcase there last night and sorted out one of the husbands problems with the computer but the other seem to be insoluble( disappearing web site, I have to convince him that web sites aren't like books they don't last hundreds of years).
I also promised to put the god daughter on to an e-mail server. I thought I would set her up with Hotmail first then use that to put her on Gmail, so she can use msn messenger for chatting to her friends and Gmail for anything important. Then I've promised to try and sort out the problem they are having with the printer. I think I'll set up as a computer consultant for the totally inept, I would probably be quite good at it. I know enough to sort most minor problems and when to say take it to a technologist but not enough to frighten the idiots %).

Life will be a little easier getting to work too. I'll still need to catch two buses but it is only from one side of town to the other so 7.30 am is probably more than early enough to get my bus.

No that house belongs to my cousin Jane and her family they live in Sunbury on Thames. This house is in Newport and is one of a few hundred middle class Victorian terraced built just after the railway hit town. The one withe the hamsters and Pippin the cat and the rabbit. Though the hamsters all died of happy old age this year so its only me Pippin and the rabbit now.

Especially now the weather has changed to rain rain rain and just for a change a little drizzle. Misty doesn't have to be put in his run if it's wet and Pipin actually doesn't complain about not being let back out after tea. Pips is sat my left on the window sill making sure I'm not libeling him.

oh yes, he sits next to me where ever I'm sitting and last night he went into his deformed tadpole pose on the settee which is his whay of asking for a tickle. I minute latter it was teeth and claws go away now but that was a long time for him to be tickled.

Claudia does the teeth and claw thing, but so gently you know it's affection. Tessa's such a little softie, you can tickle her for ages. [cuddles Tessa who is on her lap]

Gentle Pipin is not, but a few minutes later he does come and push his head against the hand he has bitten. It's his way of saying sorry. I think he may be ultra sensitive to touch and too much physical contact actually hurts him.
