Warming Up Again

After a couple of chilly days with a very cold wind the weather is expected to pick up again over the next few days.  We may even see the mid 20's again mid week.  It seems to be quite cold 'down south'.

My footy team didn't win in another close tussle.  Last year we won all the close ones, this year we haven't been so successful.  We had a lot of young guys in the team because of injuries.

Computer Club yesterday was a bit of fun.  One lady had a new laptop.  Whenever she scrolled down a list with her mouse, as soon as she clicked on something it reverted to the top of the list again!  Even with the touchpad the same thing would happen.  She was using a Logitech wireless mouse and she had the same problem with the previous laptop.

It turned out the problem was the wireless dongle she put into the laptop to receive the wireless mouse.  As soon as we removed the dongle, the touch pad behaved itself again.  We grabbed a cordless mouse from a "Club" laptop and everything worked OK.  She is shopping for a new wireless mouse this week.

I rode for 14k's this morning so I was a little weary when I arrived back home.

Trish and I finished watching Series 2 of "The Borgias" late last week.  We enjoyed it very much. It was around 10 x 1 hour episodes.

We have discovered a series called "Whitecollar" which is a clever lighthearted crime show.  Each episode goes for around 40 minutes so it is a handy fill in when there are a few spare minutes.

The Olympics finish tomorrow morning.  The top events from London are all on around 4 or 5 am, much too early for us!
