Brand Spanking New Computer

ooh, I'm so excited! The New Computer arrived yesterday (and even though 3.30 pm is most definately not a morning delivery, I don't care). I have a cordless mouse and keyboard, a flat screen monitor (thereby freeing up acres of space on the desktop) and the latest version of **Office** which I know I shouldn't get excited about because I should be using something better via Open Source, but hey, it's easy to work, and besides I can't get Thunderbird to set identities the way I want them, nor to file stuff properly, andFirefox won't let me get into the bank website. Sorry, I'll stop moaning about software.
But the big problem with having a new computer is that all my folders and files and stuff are on the old computer, and it's now thrown a final wobbly strop and refuses to boot up. So I've (hopefully temporarily) lost the past nine months worth of accounting records as well as all of the Baby Smats homework. And not even the lure of Publisher which I refused to buy for BBS ("but Mummy, you can make leaflets and EVERYTHING pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease") is going to make up for the fact that I have singlehandedly ruined her promising academic career. Apparently.

On another note, Patroclus tagged me, so here is my Top Ten Current Favourite Foods*
1. Choc Mint shake
2. Chocolate Orange bar
3. Chocolate shake
4. Vanilla shake with a spoonful of decaff coffee
5. Cappuccino shake (not quite as nice as 4.)
6. Chocolate bar
7. Strawberry milkshake
8. Vegetable soup
That's it - everything else is foul.

* still doing the Cambridge Diet so not really a good choice to tag me for this one.
