At last, I can share with you the thrilling sight of a telegraph pole being dragged up the road. I bet you had a sleepless night wondering whether you’d be seeing it today, and here it is, below. I finally managed to get my phone gallery to connect to my OneDrive without it insisting I buy Google storage and put my photos there. This is all to do with a changeover I am trying to achieve. My primary Microsoft account is an email address that I soon won’t be able to use. I can use it to sign in as a username, but if they send me anything important, I won’t get the memo. So, I want to change it to another email address, and make that one primary, except when it sent me the code, it didn’t come through until hours later (to the Otenet email, which is perfectly valid), by when it was out of time. Now, it tells me I have to wait a week before trying again.
Meanwhile, my Word colour scheme is still setting itself to have a weird beige/green background, except when I open the settings to change it, or, like now, when I am editing the document, when it reverts to normal. Ah, now I’ve gone to another programme and back again, and it’s yuk again. I do that a second time, and it reverts to white, until I start to type, and then it goes to yuk colour… Give me strength!
Anyway… More and I hope better/interesting update tomorrow. For now:
I opened the gate on Monday morning expecting to find Neil back from Yialos, and lo! There was a long wooden pole sauntering past the house. It was attached to a digger at one end and a guy at the other, who was steering it away from parked bikes and Neil, who had to wait for it to pass before he could. The pole-dragging competition went on all morning, one at a time (slowly wins the race), until calm was restored to the lane, and the chickens reappeared on the road.
