Hi folks, been a full time carer for the mrs for last 20yrs and as she’s a very independent woman a lot of the time I had nothing to do so taught myself how to build and repair desktops, repair laptops, tablets phones etc even been known to fix those hair straighteners ghds 😀 not an expert by any means but if anybody stuck with any tech problems give me a shout and I’ll do ma best to help

Thanks ron, that’s a generous and very useful offer. Tech stuff leaves me cold, and I’m sure I’m not the only one.

Nae worries Hezz if I can help anyone i'm happy, felt that way about techy stuff myself a few years back. As a typical stingy scotsman the price to repair my 1st computer probably helped with the decision to learn fixing these things myself

I'm not good at repairing computer hardware, but have been fixing all software related issues myself, including the ones that affect hardware. I could guide there too.. It never occurred to me to offer help on that front 🤗

Well done you two - I’m a bit of a technophobe! I don’t even have a mobile phone; just a tablet I use to iMessage and email. That’s about as modern as I get! 😂 I can change TV channels and use Netflix…I’m very proficient at Microsoft Word and Publisher, had a blog for 15 years and have even published a couple of books…but I don’t have a clue about tech and if I get stuck I have a husband, three adult children, a teenager and you two to ask for help!!

Hi Mona, always found building, diagnosing and repairing hardware faults was a lot easier than dealing with the headaches caused by dodgy software so would be absolutely delighted to leave any software queries in your capable hands Thanks ariella, I've got 2 phones,a tablet, 3 working desktops, last count maybe 5-6 working laptops got about 10 others in various states of repair but they are mostly older ones so will end up just dumping when get round to clearing out the sheds quite right no need with all those hands and minds to help and leave's you more time for important things like your budgies and other animals
