Purple cup 'n saucer

Such a wet start to the day
And the prospect of a week of it.
It did brighten pm.
Decided to tackle sorting out scanners etc.
Why do these over clever ? devices Not tell you why they will not perform a task?
Sort of got there in the end but confirms why I reject wasting time with them but I suppose it's preferable to getting very wet.
Curry supper coming up.
