Rain At Last (2mls!)

A colder southerly change with showers blew into SE Queensland late yesterday.  By the time it arrived at Caloundra a fair bit of its 'oomph' had disappeared.  We awoke this morning to cool winds, overcast skies and 2mls in the rain gauge! It wasn't enough to really wet the grass!

I have had to do several "System Restore" for people on their computers the last week or so.  Trish's laptop would start up and then finish with a solid black screen, I had the same with another neighbour today and even a couple of people from the Computer Club contacted me looking to solve problems because things had stopped working.

System restore is built into Windows and allows users to return their computer system back to the way it was up to 4 weeks ago.  You find System Restore after Start, All Programs and open the folder "Accessories".  Then you open the "System tools" folder and it is in there.  The system is restored to the date you nominated but all your files (photos, documents etc) are not interfered with. System Restore works most of the time but not always.

So if suddenly a program you are using worked fine yesterday but won't go today, get into System Restore and restore your computer to a day or so earlier and most likely your troublesome program will run OK again.

After Computer Club yesterday things were a little quiet so I decided on a bottle washing.  I will be bottling tomorrow.
