Blush

I'm on the last stretch of 4 years of studying at home, I'm stressed and I'm tired. This morning my battered and bruised laptop finally succumbed and is no more. Sad

I sobbed and keened as if someone had died. Blush Blush Blush

The fact that I have no money to replace it is making me cry some more. Bur seriously, its a ridiculous over-reaction isn't it?

I meant I could post it to you. Or just put it on the ferry which is about 1 mile from my house and hope for you to retrieve it.

But whatever is best for you Grin

My computer died when I was writing my PhD thesis. I did cry and was also pregnant. Luckily all the technical people took pity on me. Hope it gets sorted soon.

I cried on the phone at 8.30am to the doctors today with frustation at the stupid locum GP hadn't told the secretaries why I wanted a paediatrician appointment and visual training appointment. I knew he wasn't listening and didn't care Angry.

The last straw came when she said that he hadn't passed on the letter that the hospital had provied which told them how to locate the appointment on Choose and Book specifically as it is difficult to findAngry.

5 minutes later she called to tell me she had found it but I am still recovering now! Grin
