Techno Babble!

Have you ever 'Googled' your name?

I bet you have!!

And have you also been amazed by just how many people have the same name as you? And interestingly enough, in my case, the same occupation! (Although I am retired now, phew). I know that there is another Pauline Hollis who is a teacher, and several other Pauline Hollis's dotted around the world. It gives you a bit of a jolt to read about someone with the same name, especially if they had a 'past' so to speak! And are dead.

I recently required (AKA given, xxxxxx kisses there) an amazing new phone. I say phone, but it does everything except make the tea and I am still learning how to use it!! There are a lot of extra things on it that quite frankly scare me and I am terrified that I am going to open something in error. My fingers are big and chunky (my dad used to call them 'capable') and they keep touching the wrong letters when I whatsapp people, so instead of writing 'I went shopping', it ends up something like 'o wrmy sjipponf'. And because I am doing all this as fast as I can to prove a point, I get to the end of the message and can't read half of it. If I am feeling generous I delete and start again, if not.....off it goes.  Just as well my family can translate my ramblings!

Beautiful!

And it googles too.
