Life without a PC

Well, my PC decided to desert me just as my very first Etsy sale was going through. Apparantly my PC was too dusty inside and overheated causing damage to the hard drive and sending it into a loop of never ending starting and rebooting.

The guys at bleepingcomputer.com were all very helpful (and recommended) but in the end I had to take it to a local shop called PC Wake Up. £70 later and we're better that we were last week!

I didn't realise just how much I would miss my PC, with the old I'll just google this, that or the other" and my music! I couldn't update my iPod which is like being without legs!

I couldn't use Facebook so had no idea that one of my friends had just cooked eggs and another was watching Eastenders - all very essential stuff I'm sure you'll agree.

I was kind of panicking as I didn't want to ruin my first sale (it had it's own issues anyway, it's all a steep learning curve for a numpty like me) It all went okay and I'm pleased to say that Dillon Spangle has a new home in the US of A. He'll love it over there, the bright lights, the big cities. He was so excited to leave.






Anyway, we're back up and running and I'm looking forward to putting some more wonderful creatures and friends on Etsy soon.

Thanks for reading
