Getting old
It’s a sign on onrushing age when, should you take a tumble of a kerb, rather than stand, point and laugh people actually rush over to see if you’re ok.
Bastards.
Only real damage (other than to my clothing) is a couple of scrapes and bruising (but most of that’s to my ego).
In other news, I managed to revive my old Vx yesterday after a year of gathering dust. I was amazed that after giving it an hour’s juice, hitting the HotSync button promptly reinstalled all my programs and settings. The contacts are way out of date, but otherwise it was very reassuring to have an electonic reminder system in my pocket again.
In fact, it was so much fun (having been disappointed by HP’s response vis a vis fixing the iPaq) that … well, you can guess the rest, I’m sure. Let’s just say that Mr Hassle was impressed at how expensive three clicks of the mouse can be.
