Yes its Mint I'm putting on it. This machine is an antique - no option to boot fom USB and it was a game producing a DVD for it as none of my machines have them now. The install may still be chugging.

Well my wife wanted some very ordinary articles, I said "Let's go down the shops and buy them", but she said no, "I'll get them from Amazon".

TWO DAYS LATER

"Will you go down the shop and collect my Amazon parcel? Here's the collection number."

Wide awake  been lying on my side and put my shoulder out....Again. Now the blooming pains got me up. 
Latte n Pain Killers now. 

hope you are soon better, Raven

We is posh.. We have a M&S..  What's a Chinese doctor.. ? 

It's a takeaway, and stop calling Granny a doctor 😬

That old laptop with Mint installed was still unusable. I dug into my box of bits and upped the memory from 2 to 4GB and replaced the disk with an SSD. The Celeron 900 CPU must be a real dog as the performance is still pretty awful. She can choose whether to keep it or junk it. I'll have my bits back if it is junked.

Beautiful day today.. My sunroom doors were open most of the morning..

Walked to the post office and zig zagged up and down roads on the way back, doing one of my litter picking runs.  Only half filled a bag, which is a good sign, for I have this area under my control now😬

You sound like a Womble.. 

Poor Wombles. What would they come across on Wimbledon Common these days?

Haha! ☺️

Scrumpy, the Chines Doctor sells alternative medicine.  I've never been in the shop, but it advertises various remedies.
