I think there must be something in the air, like a solar flare.<br /><br />Luckily the air you'll be breathing soon will be full of glorious Italian smells! I'm envious, it is a place I've always wanted to travel.

Not fun. and yes, there is so much work involved in replacing technology.<br />Italy is the one international trip that is still on my bucket list.

When this computer was just over a year old the hard drive died! Fortunately, the computer guys were able to replace it and save all my files and pictures. Since then I've joined 'live drive' which is run by Google and which backs all my data on the Internet. I had an external hard drive a few years ago, but it, too, died and it was never possible to save the data. <br /><br />Have a wonderful trip to Italy! One of my favourite places. Lucky me, I have a son who lives there -- an hour from Venice -- so we plan lots of visits!The Broadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04976467218216864644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2643182421561288851.post-17425132930932583292012-04-08T20:24:22.718-07:002012-04-08T20:24:22.718-07:00Enjoy every minute!Enjoy every minute!Rosaria Williamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03133147851332084180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2643182421561288851.post-25925829764457489092012-04-08T15:53:27.650-07:002012-04-08T15:53:27.650-07:00Your reasons for blog-silence are SO much more int...Your reasons for blog-silence are SO much more interesting than my own!

He would say each letter out loud, standing for "Innate Perversity Of Inanimate Objects" and I think you might have some idea what he's talking about.

So sorry to ...Your trip to Italy sounds fantastic! So sorry to hear about the broken appliances, etc. It's true though, we've experienced the same domino effect. In fact, now that it's been several years since the last one, I better stop thinking about it, as I'm sure we're due for a rash of break downs! Oh gosh, we're doomed! It's been about 15 years since the last fall out . . . maybe more? I lose track of time these days!Sandihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15923693784234135636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2643182421561288851.post-22604649287565664612012-04-08T07:19:32.510-07:002012-04-08T07:19:32.510-07:00When you go to Venice, be sure to take the elevato...When you go to Venice, be sure to take the elevator to the top of the Campanile, the big bell tower in St. Mark's square. It isn't expensive and the view is tremendous. Just don't go around noon. The sound of ringing bells was in my head for hours afterwards.

Shame on you! Some folk would give their perfectly good cooker element for such a blogging opporunity.. (mumble, mumble)<br /><br />Oooh, I am SO jealous of your Italian trip, I've wonderful memories of all three of these locations, and would love to return. Do visit the Acropolis in Verona - it stages moonlit open air opera's there (sighhhhhh). To die for! <br /><br />Please do remember to come back again.Shrinkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18401403773851253351noreply@blogger.com
