A reminder to all who keep precious photos or other important docs on a PC or other device. Back them up! I keep all my files on an external hard drive to speed up my PC. Two days ago I thought that there may be a problem when my PC couldn’t find my screen saver photos on the hard drive. Sure enough the PC assured me that there was nothing on the drive, and I needed to format it before the PC could use it. All my photos and docs had apparently disappeared.
However this was merely an inconvenience since I back up onto a separate hard drive regularly, possibly Simon’s influence, and I last backed up less than a week ago. Consequently I haven’t lost anything. I have now temporarily backed up the back up onto my PC until I get a new hard drive.
And so, if you are not already doing so (Chantal doesn’t!) take note and back up! I use Synctoy, but no doubt most of you with a decent internet speed would use a cloudy thing.
Technically we live in Oaktree House, but sadly the tree had to go.
We now have a thriving Oakstump at the front of the house.
