I've got a Bluetooth keyboard for my phone, but in practical terms I don't really see the difference when your at the same desktop. The control key does seem to be behaving at the moment, or at least it was long enough for me to rather enjoy playing death on the road yesterday .

Btw, Sebby, I meant the end of post graduate hood in my previous post not the end of marriage. I don't think according to our wedding vows we technically can! have an end of marriage, up to and including death. Of course we could disregard wedding vows etc, but we're about as likely to do that as we are to disregard breathing.

Well the saga of the wandering washing machine seems to have come to a conclusion, though you'd be amazed how difficult finding a machine without! a inaccessible digital display swas. I did consider trying the "smart home" thing, accept that unfortunately for access you actually need to set the "smart home" function up on whatever device you want to use it on, which makes it sort of pointless if the very reason you want the dam thing is to avoid the stupid display in the first place.

Sometimes I think the hole business of making everything with a mock phone interface just to look swish has gone waaaaay! too far, indeed I miss the days when devices used to have handy knobs, sliders, switches and dials which were far easier to learn or label, hell it's sort of amusing that as a child I could pretty much guarantee to be able to use most tvs I came across just by pressing shannel buttons and turning nobs, now, unless I use my pc and a website I'm pretty much stuck. Ditto in terms of tape recorders and sterrios as audio devices.

Of course there are bennifits, I do love my victor and these days I'd not be without a pc, still when it gets to the point that a washing machine has to be digital I do wonder if someone lost the plot somewhere.

either way, we have managed to find a usable machine, with dials, and it's now working! hurrah! you'd be amazed how much you can miss having a decent quilt when you've been without one for several days.

As for other matters, annoyingly lst night we tried to watch back to the future from blindmice mart, only to find that A, it had the usual crappy balance and mono from blindmice, and B, and more seriously, it was amazingly! badly cut, and for a film like back to the future that relies on it's plot that is a major disappointment.

I did try my copy of the film on dvd, but it has no audio description track, which is disappointing.

Otherwise, I'm still playing with windows 10. I've got several db pages up for games that I've only just got chance to try, which have needed entires for some time, also I now have vipmud and mushZ installed, though the other day I was reacquainting myself with Erion since I wanted something a bit more combatty and a bit less guess the verb style. I do also need to finish my review for Cell by steven king before its' impression fades in my brain as well.

And this rambling mess has got waaaay too long so methinks I'd better post it pronto .
