bad day

you know when it mounts up & you stop being able to think properly...?

i found a pound or so in a coat pocket and i'm going out to buy chocolate in a moment...

i've made a tea, there it is, over there...

it'll be alright...

so i went out and tried the prototype pin number in the cash machine and it wasn't the one...

fair enough i thought.. took out the card, went over to waitrose who are still in the 20th century as far as credit cards go and haven't yet started using chip & pin... a fact that i only remembered today... got to the checkout, saw the chip & pin machines still covered over but in place... could only days before they're in operation but they're not working yet...

ask for cashback...

no this card will not allow cashback...

?

now is this because i just tried a wrong pin number with that card? is it that clever? or is there another, darker reason?

so i cancelled my mad dash into town to catch a computer fair and buy another power supply which was my stab in the half dark solution... felinity rang with a suggestion from her G which i haven't properly tried yet but that i doubt will work (of course i'll get round to it in an hour or so and find it works a treat)... thankyou felinity & G i do appreciate it...

right now i'm trying to find a software CD so i can install cubase on this computer and get working, except that spanish M is having a dinner party tonight... so i'm taking this computer upstairs to mine where it won't be attached to the internet...

happy day, joy of joys,

bullshit, bullshit, bullshit...
