Printers!

Ok, I admit it! I am technophobic. I have hung on to my VHS cassettes, the VHS player, and my two tonne, take-all -the -space-on-your-desk scanner for long enough!
Tomorrow I will be installing a new up-to-the-minute scanner/printer etc which I am hoping will also be able to make cups of tea and massage my shoulders after a few hours at the keyboard. My french partner is on the whole fairly attentive in these matters, but all too often disappears off fishing while leaving me to 'relax' when my shoulders are hunched to a point that they almost meet in front of me!

Of course, I'll have to await my son's visit next week to explain how the scanner works and all the wonderful things that it can do, but at least I'm moving in the right direction.
I still can't get my iphone to work properly after 6 weeks, but that's just typical of me with new technology. My kids were able to programme the video recorder etc long before I could even co-ordinate the tv and satellite receiver! It seems to me that just as I catch up with the rest of the world, the planet does a quick spin to leave me trailing yet again. Thank goodness that my kids are on hand to help.

So how come I can use a computer without any problems at all? I can't remember the last time I had a major mishap, and fortunately my son set up a back up to save all my work.
When I was young, I thought parents had children to help them with the washing up and to look after them in their old age: Now I know the real reasons!
Nathan and Rebecca: Thank you for all your help with all things technical!

Ok, back to work on the admin site for

The Le Boat prices have arrived so I need to spend a few hours updating them ready for the 2009 season. Sore shoulders, here I come!
