There was nothing else for it.The PC was dying, thanks to a corrupted Windows 10 update.After a week of trying every which way, there was only one option left.I clicked the recovery button.And waited.And waited some more.And then ... a spark of life.Houston, we appear to have lift off.There's life in the old girl yet.And … Continue reading {In the} Recovery {position}

Bank of England Museum
As Windows 10 has granted me access (and who knows for how long ...),I'm making hay while the sun shines, as it were.We've had my GodDaughter and her family staying with us for a couple of nights,and yesterday we went en famille to the Bank of England.I only discovered the BoE had a museum recently, … Continue reading Bank of England Museum

Not all are to my cup of tea, but that's the … Continue reading Wood Street Walls

Grandad P. | An Update
Grandad P. may be dying, but I don't think it's going to be any time soon. When I visited him this morning, I found him out of bed, dressed and playing his harmonica. He also pulled my leg over my inability to tell the difference between When Irish Eyes Are Smiling and How Great Thou Art. Can't win 'em … Continue reading Grandad P. | An Update
