The story so far .........
I have bought a new notebook (lovingly called my "minnie") and was feeling extremely impressed with myself. Being a complete computer num-nut I was pleased at my ability to load windows, works, get internet connection etc on minnie.
However, due to length of nails, cannot use the touch pad thingy (do other members have same problem?), so bought a wireless mouse.
Opened box, plugged mouse in (yes even found usb port to put it in) and started to use it. Shout to my son "Jack, my mouse is not working properly - it's going the wrong direction!". Jack comes over, takes hold of mouse, and whispers in my ear .........
Mum, you've got it upside down!!!!!!
I dont think even "DOH" covers this amount of stupidity.
Anyone else been a prize prat lately?
