Aren't you planning on going there next year?

Fair enough.
I'm sure you said you were going on holiday somewhere next year. But clearly you don't want to discuss it.

For anyone left standing I have a serious - if stoopid - question
I can't type. I use one finger and I'm fairly quick with it.

Until now this hasn't been a problem but being self-employed now means that I'm having to do a lot of reports and it's really starting to hurt my wrist. This is my wanking wrist so you'll appreciate my dilemma.

I don't expect to learn how to type but is there any ergonomic way to set up a laptop? I've tried the rather Heath Robinson approach of sticking paper under it to angle the keyboard.

I make no excuses whatsoever for my retardedness in such matters.
( The Disappointed Caravanner of the year, Sun 24 Jul 2011, 22:20, Reply)

For about a fiver, you could buy a USB keyboard.
That would give you more scope.
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sun 24 Jul 2011, 22:21, Reply)

Could be worth a try
I was always slightly more comfortable with a conventional keyboard than a laptop.
( The Disappointed Caravanner of the year, Sun 24 Jul 2011, 22:30, Reply)

Would you not be more comfortable with a desktop machine, rather than a laptop?
Likewise, can you automate any/many of your reports and reduce your administration time.
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sun 24 Jul 2011, 22:31, Reply)

In a fit of efficiency
I got rid of my old PC. I'd have been better with that.

I work within templates but there's not an awful lot of scope for automation - every property is different.

Are you finding life treating you well on the self-employed wagon?
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sun 24 Jul 2011, 22:37, Reply)

It's OK
I need more good contracts for security and a sustainable income, but the contracts I've got are very happy with price and service and keep coming back for more.

Just need to open a few more doors.
( The Disappointed Caravanner of the year, Sun 24 Jul 2011, 22:43, Reply)

Well fingers crossed you get what you need!
I take it you're not missing the world of transport.
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sun 24 Jul 2011, 22:49, Reply)

I still do the occasional driving turn
And I'd like to carry on that way.

I enjoy some of the private hire work but service driving - and service driving management - did me in.
( The Disappointed Caravanner of the year, Sun 24 Jul 2011, 22:53, Reply)

Sounds like you've got the balance spot on TD

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sun 24 Jul 2011, 22:57, Reply)

Not quite
But maybe this time next year I'll be there.

When I can work as few hours as possible to make the money that I need to live on and a little bit more, and I enjoy all of those hours, then it will be right.

Anyway - it's bedtime before my wrist gets too knackered and the memory of the C5 newsgirl fades.

I'm off to the land of nod too.
Catch up with you next week at some point.
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sun 24 Jul 2011, 23:03, Reply)

There are some online typing programs for practise
which should make your posture and hand positions better. I think the one we used to use was on the CBBC website (it's for kids, but we used it with adults). Then get a wrist rest.

happy wanking

Have you seen Mr Playground patrol recently?

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sun 24 Jul 2011, 22:31, Reply)

not until September :(
chances are I will see him then, then next july, then never, due to playground rearrangements
( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Sun 24 Jul 2011, 22:32, Reply)

You need to strike whilst the iron is hot in September Captain.
Make sure he doesn't get away.

If you're unlikely to see him again, after Sept until some distant point in the future
You've got nothing to lose.
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sun 24 Jul 2011, 22:48, Reply)

In between I'm meant to contact him for work-related things
anyway, I will just fuck up and go home wishing I'd said something. Although it is about time I added to my list of guys I've unsuccessfully asked out
( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Sun 24 Jul 2011, 22:50, Reply)

Well ask him out to discuss something work related.

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sun 24 Jul 2011, 22:57, Reply)

don't think I have enough excuse to do this
The other disadvantage is I will probably have workmates there who will rip the piss and/or accidentally cockblock.

Well, my friends have offered to start handing round cards to fit guys they see round town :/

You should come to Weston.
We'll find you someone on the pier.
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sun 24 Jul 2011, 23:00, Reply)

is the pier an excellent spot for that kind of thing?
I might go - but anything after september is a bit hit and miss, providing I get my job it'll be pretty mental at work. I like the idea of coming to that and then maybe going to London after for Montyfest or whatever it's called
( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Sun 24 Jul 2011, 23:03, Reply)

I've no idea if the pier is a good pulling spot, b3th would be able to tell you.

The difficulty with that
Is that three fingers of my left hand don't work, so any conventional typing training is out.
( The Disappointed Caravanner of the year, Sun 24 Jul 2011, 22:28, Reply)

is there not some way to work
out a version which is one handed but uses all the fingers (on the good hand) and is supported by the working fingers on the other?

I dunno, there must be some kind of typing program for one handed

I've not searched it but check here - it's mostly for dyslexia and visual impairment, though

Learn to type properly, the videogame "Typing of the dead" will help.
Using a single finger means your other fingers are never in the right possition. Feel for the little bump on the F and J keys, your index fingers should be there and your other fingers resting on ASD and KL: keys.
