But I'm sitting down here playing classical music through...

I think the birds must like the music too because I've had loads around
me this afternoon... and only one of them did a whoopsie on me. :-))

I put up a garden parasol which covers the laptop but leaves me in the
sun. I managed to create a new golf club web page out there today so it
can't be that bad... :-)

I have a black 'shelf' about 2 feet long x 1 foot wide and my laptop
lives on that. I just carry the shelf with the lappie on it to wherever
I want to use it. I'll take a piccie sometime.

I haven't been paid for any more 'pages' yet... if they don't pay me
for this it won't go up (it's not linked to anything at the moment)

Nope! :-(
I don't use an FTP thingy for the golf club site.

My shelf is handy because it can sit on a tabletop or on my lap and
it's even been used whilst I've sat up in bed.

Most of the time my lappie is on my computer desk, or in the village
hall for agendas and files etc. Only occasionally do I go into the
lounge with it, as I get blasted out with soaps!! :-(
