My poor blog has been abandoned for about a year now, having
started off life as a self-indulgent moan about the Berlusconi regime… which
also finished about a year ago. “No Harem… no blog!” you say.
Not completely true… and unfortunately the harem is still
out there.
The main reason I haven’t written is that Google did the
dirty on me: something very cunning and sly changed on my computer, and I didn’t
know how to get back into the blog again. Futile attempts at ownership just
resulted in funny messages in computer language that I didn’t understand. A
cleverer person than I would have just pressed the right buttons, but I’ve
never been any good with buttons!
I know everyone knows all there is to know about computers.
Except me. I still don’t have a telephone that takes photos, don’t know how
Skype works, have never copied a CD, never downloaded music from anywhere, still
don’t know the difference between an Ipad, a kindle and a tablet and wouldn’t
even recognise an MP3 if I tripped over it in the street.
However... When my computer came back from the hospital last
month after having emergency surgery lots of things had changed. For equally
unknown reasons I am now the owner of Tales From The Harem again.
Will there be anything to write about though? :)
This has got nothing to do with anything really but I have
recently discovered I was a pirate in a past life. Explains lots of cut throat
attitudes I have and why I like Jamaican rum.
Might tell you about it in my next post.
