No doubt I'll need to get used to W 10 if I needed a new computer but I'll wait until then.Rosemary Gemmellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09311840205603508422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1764329434741342023.post-83506619239920475092016-04-05T12:58:22.504+01:002016-04-05T12:58:22.504+01:00Thanks, Teresa.

I really like 7 and will stick with it as long as possible I think. I'm glad to hear you're now able to get on with your writing - it's always frustrating when things like this get in the way xxTeresa Ashbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15350697922935549188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1764329434741342023.post-1683161595450951912016-04-04T22:24:59.807+01:002016-04-04T22:24:59.807+01:00We are creatures of habit and it's always disc...We are creatures of habit and it's always discombobulating when you are forced to make a change.
