I haven't laughed so much in ages.

LOL

There's one born every minute.
And to think a democracy means she has a vote.

Hope your OH gets over Shingles soon Pat. I've not had them but members of my family have and they were in a lot of pain.

I'd have been tempted to give a loud sneeze down the phone to your pal just for 'divvelment' ;O)

Am I being nasty 'cos I'd be inclined to e-mail her again and suggest she takes her computer to PC World to ask them to check her computer for Shingles. Obviously on a busy Sarurday morning.

Seriously though, I don't think I would be inclined to remain in e-mail contact with her 'cos if she doesn't understand the basics of computing, you can bet your life her computer is crawling with malaware, virus's etc.

Hope your OH is soon better.

Pat, Hi, if I hadn't read the whole thread I'd have thought it was a wind-up lol.

What a female plonker, eh. Sounds as if the loaf has a few slices missing ............

Anyway, hope Mr Pat feels better soon, and that he can also have a laugh at Marion's joke (loved it!).

Like that.

I am going to send her all your suggestions and then ignore her from now on. Thank you all for your comments and funny remarks. You have certainly made me laugh. Bless you all for that.

Pat,pmsl at that,However, perhaps you should send her one last Email informing her that the "Diagnosis" was wrong, it has now been discovered that it is "Painintheass" desease and it seens to have infected her computor,she must go to the "Mr.Computor Doctor" to get a cure. **M**.:o)))))))>.roflmao.

A fellow walked into a doctor’s office and the receptionist asked him what he had.
He said, “Shingles.”
So she took down his name, address, medical insurance number and told him to have a seat.
A few minutes later a nurse’s aid came out and asked him what he had.
He said, “Shingles.”
So she took down his height, weight, a complete medical history and told him to wait in the examining room.
Ten minutes later a nurse came in and asked him what he had.
He said, “Shingles.”
So she gave him a blood test, a blood pressure test, an electrocardiogram, told him to take off all his clothes and wait for the doctor.
Fifteen minutes later the doctor came in and asked him what he had.
He said, “Shingles.”
The doctor said, “Where?”
He said, “Outside in the truck. Where do you want them?”

Can I ask please Pat - in the last 2-3 years is this the first indication that your friend has given that she may not be too bright?

Unfortunately there are ,many people who work all day on a computer - and still now nothing about them and how they work. Probably just think of them as a glorified typewriter.
