Well I have managed to set up a Blogging Site all by myself - well with help from Bill and Diane from U3A.  I went to the blogging class last Wednesday and took my new ASUS Vivo Tab computer which I had purchased for our trip to the UK in May this year.  I knew I should have played with it a bit more than I did but there just wasn't time.  I arrived at the class all ready to participate and no matter what I did the little computer wouldn't do anything.  It was so frustrating and in the end I just closed it up and decided to participate in the class without a computer.  Not as effective for learning how to set up a blog that is for sure.

The next day I took the computer to my son Nick to have a look.  The next day my daughter in law returned the computer to me saying that it wasn't working.  The right side of the touch screen had a fault and it just kept on draining the battery and it was not responding at all.  Part of me was relieved because I thought it was me!!  I took the computer back to Harvey Norman and told them it was not working and to fix it please!! This is the first computer that I have had in 25+ years that hasn't worked.  I have had the normal hard drive problems but this cute little computer was just not working and had a fault - I am not impressed.  Hopefully they will fix it and I can take it with me to do the Blog on our trip to the UK and Europe. Or else I will have to use the Ipad which has worked perfectly since the day we got it.
