For various reasons, largely having to do with the persistent rain of this rainy April, I have revived Project Tiddly,  and went one better by ordering delivery of my vodka and cooler. Having gone out to the super this afternoon and having cleaned the gunk of spring off the walker's wheels, I had no desire to do it all again. Equally all I want to eat is cake and have in fact eaten cake every day this past week thanks to a McCains Deep ad Delicious vanilla frozen cake. And very nice it was too. Vegetables simply don't do it for me anymore. I can't move in the mornings anyway so can't get downstairs to weigh myself so the damage will go unnoticed and unrecorded.

I wondered why I could never get Substack to load on my tablet. Discover it's because the upstarts tablet, bought in 2017 and retured to factory settings in 2021, refuses to load certain programs and apps like Kobo and Substack while the downstairs one is just fine with them. A nuisance, but nothing to ge done about it. The upstairs tablet holds a charge much longer than the downstairs one, which is perpetually running down its battery. Like now, for instance, after I recharged it last night and this afternoon.

However, see that my nephew has at last cashed the wedding cheque I sent him a month ago, so that niggle is settled.

Re the refusing to load certain programmes, that was why I had to update my tablet last time. Some things wouldn't run on the old operating system and the tablet couldn't cope with the new version of the OS. I resent having to buy new hardware because the software is forcing me to. :-(
