We are on line again!

Sorry to anyone who has tried to contact us during the last week or so but we were talking to Nic and we saw a flash and heard a bang and everything went dead. Steve was with us and thought quickly, packed up the OSx and was off to John Lewis in High Wycombe in a flash. He was sent to their computer expert in Bellfield Road, Downley, who had been instructed by the shop to see to the OSx pdq. In a couple of days they rang me and said it was ready to collect - so I jumped in the Renault and set off for HWyc. As luck would have it Steve was in Edinburgh and also the M40 was locked solid as there had been an accident near the Thame junction 8a. It was too late to go cross country through Bicester and Oakley and I had to spend an hour and a half listening to my car's radio, until the road was cleared. I was panicking as it was getting near 5pm and I thought I may be too late to get to the shop. However, I left the M 40 at Stokenchurch and got up to Downley at 4.58. Just as the man was thinking of closing. He packed the repaired OS x in the car and I went home. Mum, of course was worried, but as it happened I was home by 6 and everything was OK. So that is that and all is now OK and here we are.
I hope Clive had a good birthday and as I write this we hope Jessica is also having a happy birthday. It will soon be 9/9 and I wonder if Pete or Jan can buy Amy some sweets in time for Tuesday. Unfortunately there is no post from here on Sunday, But we hope to get a card off on Monday. Love from Dad & Mum
