Here we go again

Time slips by and updates get forgotten such a naughty girl. Well I'm always out and about and never get time.
We have our holiday booked for September, off to Mallorca again and the same apartment. This time we have Dolenta and Andy and Mark and Philip our friends from Brighton who we are to see in a couple of weeks.
Have had a disaster on the computer front. The hard drive on my iMac is failing, luckily I have a largeish drive so I managed to partition it and and am booting up from that, thank goodness I back stuff up. Then of all things Madame's computer failed, couldn't find the hard drive but luckily after taking it in to the Apple Shop it was just the wire connecting the drive to the main board and not the drive itself.
The week before last I managed  5 days out of six dressed which was amazing out here there and everywhere even the visits to the Apple Shop were en femme.
On the sixth we were off to the London Alternative Market but a little Billy no mates as our friends were all unable to attend but we had a lovely day and so good to catch up with Mistress Caramel.
It looks like I shall have quite of string of days to myself from Wednesday as Madame is off to her friends on Canvey Island frock making although I might get roped in spending the weekend there.

Oh my days sooo long since an update. Pointless trying to do things by date so I'll just rattle on. Of course its involved lots of going out and about. It never ceases to amaze me how I can find things in the British Museum and the V&A that I haven't seen before.
A minor disaster last week, the iMac decided it wouldn't let me log-in so it was off to the Apple Shop. Hardware all ok but I couldn't even get in to the diagnostics so it was a restore of the operating system which of course destroyed everything on the drive. Luckily I had Time Machine to restore most of the data. A quick order to Amazon for a USB stick and create a bootable drive and if it happens again I can redo it all myself.
The other Sunday it was off to Wokingham for Sunday dinner with friends. My goodness I thought my little part of London was fairly peaceful but out there you can hear a pin drop. I don't think we could cope with country life.
We went to the London Alterative Market at the beginning of the month the usual suspects were there but unfortuneatly I wasn't able to change a cosert I bought the other month as they hadn't brought one the right size.
A couple of weeks ago we took ourselves off to meet two friends from Brighton. A stroll around the British Museum and then off to Dolenta's shop in Euston. After the shop closed all six of us trooped up to Mornington Crescent to a Spanish restaurant for dinner.
