Monsieur iPad's Holiday

A very silly day began with my sitting in the sun to read my emails, catch up with blippers, and order about 40 more books for a trifling sum, just in case I run out of reading material. Ha! Those that know me will wonder at the wisdom of my introducing yet MORE books into our already-bursting house. There ought to be a twelve-step fellowship for book buyers such as myself.

Suddenly the iPad screen went black and a large yellow triangle appeared, with the word "temperature" on it. Poor thing had overheated in my buying frenzy. I took it iot a cool, dark room and went to look for a cooling aid. I then realised I had a gel-filled eye pad in the fridge, so I popped it on, and the poor creature made a swift recovery.

Later I realised that I'd given my iPad an eye pad! This seemed so unintentionally funny that I set up some silly shots in the cabin, of my iPad on holiday. The most stupid part of this tale is that I used up a lot of battery doing this, and when I went out later, to the wonderful Stratford park for an hour of hanging out, and then on to supper with friends, I could only get the words "battery exhausted" from my camera. Then I drank too much at supper, and the rest of the evening passed in a wibbly wobbly blur. No point in blipping in THAT state!
