It was a manual typewriter I used in school, mainly Imperial, and Pitmans Shorthand, which was the standard in those days and the hardest to learn, hence the reason I wanted to stay on the extra year so I could carry on mastering it.
I was in my middle 50s before I touched a computer. I was in the same school all the time, started when I was 5 then when you reached 11 you took exams and if you passed you went to grammar school, I didn't pass so stayed on in Secondary School till I left at 15.
I did do night school after for audio typing but still didn't get a job in an office,
I should think there are a lot of people who can't wait to get out and about.
It doesn't make any difference to me I'll just be glad when I've finished with all this paperwork I've got such a stack of it. The main thing is the car, I just wish they'd come and repossess it and be done with it plus let me know just how much money I'm going to be getting.
I've got paperwork coming out my ears, all demands, had a couple today although only one was a demand but when you get government papers coming in although the Inland Revenue one was ok as apparently our taxes are all in order and there should be a refund coming back, not a big one but it's better than the other way round.How are you doing with all the paperwork? Have you managed to find all the stuff you were looking for? I do hope you manage to get sorted with it and the car company is doing all they can to help you. I think the problem we have at present is everything, and everyone is on a go-slow, so it's taking ages to get anything sorted. We've still been getting the runaround by two energy companies for the best part of three months well probably 6 to 7 if you factor in the two faulty meters, a load of money spent on energy we haven't used and then the nightmare of trying to transfer them over to the new company which is all being stopped in its tracks (each one blaming the other) it's an absolute joke. But hey ho, people have it worse than us, so we keep going until it gets sorted.
Happy Friday lol ....sorry Happy Black Friday!
Will you guys be getting any deals today?
