I survived this mornings fight with the Sainsburys self-service machine, only twice having to ask the young lady to fix it for me. The man next to me had no bother at all, I will have to use that machine next time! Grrrrrrrr.
This ought to have been no surprise to me, technology has been giving me a bad time recently. The router keeps switching itself off, when it returns the speed has gone from 55 to much less. As it keeps happening each time it returns the speed comes back slower, 48 to 32, to 27 to 14!!!
The air is somewhat blue around here.
I think, as the land line phone is somewhat scratchy, I may need to call in an engineer to fail to put it right. As we speak the speed is a mere 24, good enough for routine things but not good for things that require a lot of resources such as facebook or the football websites.
There again Ancestry is giving me gip! I tried to insert a 'tree,' and it is so complicated, the instructions not clear enough for an ageing eejit, and it took several attempts before I began to understand what I was doing. Several attempts at deleting things also!
Even worse, last night I lost my mobile. I then spent some considerable time seeking the brute until finding it in my discarded trouser pocket!
I hate technology!
Smarmy Sunak took another step into incompetence the other day, betting £1000 with Piers Morgan that asylum seekers would be on the plane to Rwanda before the election. Has any Prime Minister been more galling than this one? Even Boris would not have fallen for Morgan ruse. To think, this man has his finger on the nuclear button!

The Sunak bet was just so crass...to fall for that one shows his lack of moral compass.
As to technology...faugh!
They are offering Musk's Starlink internet here....not cheap to set up but reasonable monthly fees....then I took a look at the installation instructions and had to lie down in a darkened room...
Fly, I saw a 'Starlink' ad the other day. Musk must need money again.
I tried a self service thingy in a new supermarket today.
A supercilious young member of staff leapt forward to assist the old bat - clearly so gaga she would upset the machine - and could not get it to accept my chinese cabbage at any price, let alone the real one. He had a small tantrum and i went through the check out.
Fly, Cabbages are tricky...
Especially if they are chinese
Fly, Tee hee...
