Aaaaaaaaarghhhhhh!


How come technology always fails when you need it?!


There I was logged on to BM via phone, it starts playing silly devils and faltering every now and then just when convo getting good, then it dies completely for absolutely no good reason.


Get the laptop out ... it takes 20 mins to load up and get onto BM (God knows why?) then each and every time I ask the damn thing to do anything it either shakes its tiny fist at me in a Wg gesture and sits looking at me blankly or it shuts itself into its nice safe little blue screen of death mode!


Is technology really that clever that it thinks F**k her, she is enjoying herself a tad too much, think I'll pee her off by refusing to play ball??


Is it just me that is being infuriated by the whole flippin thing?

How about, go into recovery and reload to last safe save.... Might undo what ever settings have been changed.....alternatively switch it on in safe mode and carryout full scans for virus and defrag etc if that doesn't work...see post re fork down its port lol
