Not much news, really. Computer seems to have settled down now. Still can't get the USB keyboard working, but all other USB things do. Indeed, I booted it up yesterday and it was asking which device I wanted to boot from (fair enough), but listing all the hard-drives, the DVD drive and all the slots in the USB card reader. Crazy. Imagine booting up from an SD card? How weird. I thought so anyway. Erm . . . and then I finished off all the Wickes floor varnish last night. So that's coat number . . . four? Is it? Something like that. I'm gonna put a final coat of this Ronseal diamond-hard stuff, but for some reason I have to wait for a month for the nasty, solvent-based Wickes floor varnish to 'settle in' or 'settle down' or something. God knows. M**** said I should try out a sample of Ronseal matt varnish on one of the cut-offs from the kitchen worktops, just to see how it looks. I not so sure though. I kinda like the oiled finish, even though it's a lot more faffy (is that a word?). Anyway, yes . . .
