Facebook didn't like my new blog. I used the word 'swearing' in my first post and I think the possibility I might be cussing on here the world upside down may have upset the mighty FB empire. So...(sorry, Betti) you can share videos of people being beheaded and animals being tortured on Facebook but you can't threaten to use bad words.
Anyhoo, I went back to my old blog, which mysteriously stopped working in July when I moved house and got a new email address. I updated the email and the password yet again and - well, not exactly a eureka moment - I got in. Whether I can in fact share this on FB, well, we'll see...
Having access to information technology is just like having a car: it's wonderful when it works. You get lured into a false sense of confidence: Yes, I can handle this! I am a 21st century person, at ease with the machines. As soon as the Sky reception goes wonky (as mine did tonight), you're there shouting like a toddler: 'B*st*rd! Just work! Why won't you f*cking work?'
When I moved house in July I had so many problems with email addresses and passwords, I changed the password on everything so that it would always start: afknl - short for: aaaargh f*kin hell. It seems to have worked and I have the double pleasure of knowing I have a password that is just about impossible to guess (there's a number code after the sweary bit that you'll never get out of me) and I am getting a small but enjoyable revenge on technology.
So let's see if the share with FB works...
