It starts

OK here goes.... This blog is about the joys of your early thirties (insert sarcasm) when your single, a mature student and only have half an idea about what it is your supposed to be doing, not as it may suggest actual trials!!  Lets begin with the creation of this blog, listening to my lecture explain the intricateness of how to create and modify felt like listening to an alien language and the hint of code writing like a course in hieroglyphics.

As I struggle to work out how to update, include hyper-links, insert widgets (what even is that?) I realise that course in Latin really was the wrong move.  I blame my increasing decent into old age and the school system because my introduction to computers was on the old white apple computers that didn't even connect to the internet.  Where floppy disks ruled and touch typing was classed as computer skills. Before this point my involvement with technology and the workings of, tend to be on the old adage that you either turn things off and on or keep pressing buttons till something works!!

For some time now I have been under the pretence that being able to send an email and reach friends/update on Facebook and my recent addition to Instagram meant my integration to the internet was almost complete.  So I ask anyone who may be reading this to bear with me and my slow decent into madness whilst trying to update myself to this centenary. The blog will not always focus on technology but also will be in an insight into what it feels like to function in a society that seems to be moving faster than many of my generation feels happy to keep up.  Or is that just me? Answers on a postcard here.....
