Oh, what a day.
It was one of those days when you just knew you were going to stay in all day. Yesterday’s wild wind from named storm Dave had swung away to the north east, thank goodness and good riddance to it. We had a a couple of rolls of thunder, but it was the snow that was the strangest thing. I’ve heard my mum talking about snow in May. This was snow in April which was almost as bad.
I had set myself the task of Reissuing my Positive SSL, but Hazel, my trusty Webmonkey, had already reminded me that I’d sorted it out myself the last time this had happened, about a year ago and with that thought in mind I girded my loins (or is that Lions?) and asked for help from the Namecheap gurus. Just incase you’re wondering what a Positive SSL is and why it needs Reissuing I can tell you that it would take too long to explain. In other words, I haven’t a clue what it means.
However, thankfully I found Bohdan V who was a guru who seemed to know what was going wrong on my computer. After answering quite a few questions they said they could see part of the problem and an hour or so later the SSL was Reissued, it had been checked and everything in the garden was, once again, rosy. Just like the last time, a year or so ago, I didn’t have to do anything, just answer the questions when they came up and hope that the answers I was giving were the right ones. Bohdan seemed satisfied that they were and when I ran the check text they sent me, I got confirmation that “All is well”. That was good enough for me. I signed off with a lighter heart than when I started. My SSL was good for another six months or thereabouts before I’ll need to do it all over again. I hope Bohdan V doesn’t have a sore head tonight.
It was still snowing and hailing and raining when I returned for the mysteries of Positive SSLs and even better, it was dinner time.
My dinner was my Cannon of Hogget and it was just short of delicious. I think I over cooked it, but I’d have it again. Scamp was having roasted and spiced cauliflower with Hasselback potatoes which she also shared with me. They were very, very nice. I may even try to cook them some day soon.
We spoke to Jamie in the evening and heard about the wildlife that are attacking his veg patch and the problems of running out of calor gas just when you need it.
Tomorrow I may rest my clogged up brain and live a normal life for a change.
