Still laptop less. Finally managed to contact someone in our IT depratment in London today, after 8 attempts. They say its fixed and I can collect it tomorrow, hopefully they're telling the truth this time.

The last few days have been a bit hectic. We've completed most of our move now, just a few last bits to collect before Thursday evening. Hopefully that'll be the end of it.

Dad was taken into hospital on Saturday after his hands and arms swelled up. Thankfully it was nothing life threatening and he's out now. They say its gout but I've never heard of that in your arms and hands! He couldn't wait to get out, especially after the lousy food they provided. When we went on Sunday mum arrived complete with roast beef sannies to help him get through.

Wife is a little under the weather at the mo and has wangled a week off. Thankfully it looks like I'll be home every night this week.

The cats are now running the house. I have been evicted from my rocking chair. If I sit there then I get all 3 crawling all over me. If I sit elsewhere then they'll sit on there and leave us undisturbed.

Sherpa was also helping me sweep up by watching and then attacking the brush I was using. Well, it kept him amused anyway.
