sandway:
Bit of a calamity happened yesterday. One of my memory sticks containing many recent photos, both my own I’ve scanned and others given to me has given up the ghost. I took the stick to be looked at by an expert this morning and he has pronounced it dead. So remember everyone, ‘backing up’ not only applies to reversing your lorry. I now intend to buy some new sticks and make copies of all the photos on old ones.
Best save your data files online with Google or OneDrive (Mac have a free online drive too I think). Flash drives have a very limited life. The online drives are free up to a certain size and won’t lose your data.
Our boiler has expired and so on Thursday I have to clear out some space for the plumber to work in. This is where my photos are possibly stored (wife moved everything so I can find nothing)/ Let’s hope so. It would be nice to share some of them.
