I've been married to my computer for a few years now.  I've been thinking it's time for a change.  This love/hate relationship is wearing thin. 

Fun post.

Be well,

Very Creative...
I don't know how many times I have stopped myself from throwing my computer out of the window.

Tony, computers know certain things:
  • when you're in a hurry
  • when you're fed up
  • when you've got a new toy you'd like to play with
  • when lost work would cause maximum harm

They should never be trusted. Do not call it Adele, but Adolf.

Great craft as usual.

Hi Tony
Great creative write and so true, I envy those who are able too sit and study their technical pc help books , for me that takes willpower something I wish I could purchase, bottled preferably . Enjoyable humour held within truth as always ! Mike

Nicely expressed in our own speciality. But when my computer goes nuts, it has been so for the past week, I go even bigger.

Computers changed my life but not always for the better.

Hi ho! which is worst a cantankerous computer or a nagging wife?

Just kidding, this is witty and funny, i know the feeling about computers, they can drive you nuts. I had to fix my antivirus program that turned out to have a corrupt file in it and would refuse to update. Had to call the company whose headquarter is in India, what a saga, an hour later after a long conversation with someone with Indian English we got there, and i learnt something about India in the process. Phew!
So best of luck, sometimes it is tempting to give them the boot.

Well put though. good sonnet.

If there were, Troosha, they're well and truly burnt.
In fact, I haven't had a chance to cook yet, but I will do now, thanks for the reminder!

PC - 6. Tony - 1

I think the PC one today's match - could hear it in the sound of your voice (oops, I mean Sonnet). 
Take a deep breath Tony - weren't there some pies baking?
