Enough time at home....back to work tomorrow.

Last week I bought a Belkin cordless keyboard and mouse frim Dixons. I find that the keys on the keyboard have a kind of collapse type of action - as you press a key the resistance collapses and the key makes a noise, also it seems to have a very long travel....in fact I am not happy with it. It is slow and noisy.

I only appear to write my blogs when I am ill.

I woke up this morning at 06.15 with the shits....It was like crapping hot water !! I took a couple of Immodium and thing settled down, but I was feeling rough, and did not fancy driving 25 miles to work in heavy traffic. Its lucky I did'nt go to work as I has to 'go' again and it would have been a bit tricky as at that time I would have been on the M56.

The annoying thing for me is that yesterday I was aking about having a day off on Thursday. I was going to do some work in the garden, and have a blood test at the same time.
Consiquently with me now ringing in sick, they probably think I am swinging the lead and using illness as an excuse for a day off.

As before - I only ever seem to write a blog when I am ill....the reason for this is simple. Its the only time I have the time or means.
At work we are not allowd to blog or read blogs, in fact these days we are not allowed in the internet at all for personal reasons...purely work only. This also includes emails...they have it well and truly tied up tight.

At home I am engufed in the daily routine of things.
My wife is pretty much oblivious to blogging and what it is. I did try to explain once but it was pretty much over her head. She considers any time spent on the PC not actually doing something useful, such as paying bills, is a waste of time.
She seems to think I use a PC as a glorified games machine....
I must admit recently she is trying more to become computer literate....however it is an uphill struggle.
