The PC Gremlins are about, and one of them is sitting inside my PC tower unit, poking a stick into my disk drive at random inconvenient times. The less-imaginative would say that my disk drive is experiencing an intermittent mechanical problem that could lead to permanent failure. So, I've backed everything up, ordered a replacement disk, and am limiting the time I spend on the PC ( the gremlin doesn't poke until the thing's warmed up ).
Instead of rebuilding my disk drive, what I'd rather be doing, is relating our December Whale Shark siting to The Whale Shark Project, along with photo. Something to do when I can hear my hard disk whirring instead of clicking.
Writing of sharks, I remember with horror about two years ago, when our staff canteen decided to put it on the lunch menu. They haven't made that mistake again since, but still every Friday, they insist on making another dent in the Cod population. It isn't easy knowing which fish are caught using sustainable methods, but fishonline can help with the decision making process.
( I really shouldn't be writing about Gremlins. It only encourages Elves. )
