Ah I’m so glad Mo’time is back on line and everything appears to be working so much smoother.
I am also happy to report my lowly eMac has had its surgery and now with a new heart/brain appears to be working better than before. This return to original speed will greatly help reduce post-production show time and help keep the quality a bit tighter.
The repair technician who showed up in Kitchen Studio was friendly and efficient. He had, apparently, been out to the island before to repair computers–he does all sorts. He told me my problems weren’t unusual and that Dell computers were also having massive problems with blown capacitors. Let’s hope it won’t happen again, with this new motherboard.
He was a bit taken aback when I offered him lunch. He politely rufused but tucked in heartliy when I set a turkey pannini in front of him. He lit up at the Blood Oranges in White Chocolate Sauce for afters. He was very pleasant, but on the whole didn’t seem to know what podcasting was about–or didn’t let on. He fell in love with my dog and mostly wanted to ask questions about the breed.
My dear (long suffering) wife said perhaps the computer should break more often if it would get me to clean the office as thoroughly. I even got rid of the cardboard I stuck to the window with tape to keep the sun from glaring on the screen and replaced it with blinds. This will let even more light into kitchen studio. WIth computer worries out of the way, the polytunnel finished for now, and my chicken yard well on its way, I’m off to line up a tasting panel for next week’s Corned Beef Taste Off.
