So there goes the computer, which finally died in a blaze of blue screens yesturday. And no, we hadn't backed things up because a) there wasn't a backup facility installed on it, which was very helpful, and b) by the time we realised this and tried to install, the machine was already dying. Ah well. Supposedly there's a chance the drive won't need to be formatted, but I've already bade a mental farewell to all my icons, fic, pics, etc etc.

On the plus side, my current fandom love being Franz, and most Franz items therefore being rather large vids and clips, most of that stuff was burned to CD a while back. Plus it is amazing how random scrolling through bob_daily and franz_hai will lighten your mood.

Another cheering factor was my mother sending me an email of supposedly real newspaper cuttings.

Heh, it did make me smile - though probably I'd have just put the husband straight onto the ad and kept the kitten ;)

I love the last one - put a smile on my hungover face!

[lonelybrit]

That last one is pure style, hats off to the lady who thought of it, LOL!

Haha, the last two are really good!

Sorry to hear about your computer. All those Bob photos! At least you'll have fun collecting them again :D

A friend of mine got a leaflet through the door recently which if I had scanning ability I would have shared: 'Don't kill yourself with the gardening - let us do it for you!'

And yes, the trauma of having to trawl through all those pics again. Darn it. *ahem*

awwwwwww, look at the kitty!

There was a great little thing in one of the papers up here a few month ago, about how a train in germany had to be stopped as there was a man in a tuxedo lying on the lines, turned out though, it was an oversized toy penguin. :)

BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Well personally I too would have stopped for a penguin, be it stuffed or real, but still, that would have been funny. So long as you weren't on the train and late for something of course :)
