Well I'm in Edinburgh, with lots of rain, a sore toe, and a flaky laptop.

If the laptop manages to hold it together, I might post a picture of the toe.

You dropped the laptop on the toe?

I'm going to assume, simply because the mental image is so satisfying, that the laptop stopped working because it got rained on, and he then attempted to drop kick it, thereby damaging the toe.

Well, it does provide a nice, simple, all-in-one explanation.

Indeed an excellent explanation, but sadly not the right one.

The toe I just managed to stub into a wardrobe on Monday evening.

The laptop has been flaky (prone to system crashes and BSODs) for a while now but has suddenly got much worse. It seems to be happy running in Safe Mode but does not like stuff being plugged in to the USB ports.

The rain is just wet.

How long are you here for? [livejournal.com profile] auldhoose tends to be the venue-of-choice on a Wednesday if you're still about this evening and fancy a glass?

Already arranged with [livejournal.com profile] autopope and [livejournal.com profile] feorag to meet up there. I'll limp in sometime after 8...

No - I saw [livejournal.com profile] major_clanger on Sunday when he rescued me from Heathrow.

I really hope this isn't gout - having had it I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

Not unless you can catch gout from stubbing toes on wardrobes!
