The others were off wandering around the town doing whatever. There was almost 30 minutes before they were due to leave, so I hurried off to buy some lunch. I should have had enough time; but then the shop took over 20 minutes to make two sandwiches!
I gulped one sandwich down as I hurried back to the group. By now everyone was back and they were all getting their gear on and mounting up ready to leave. I munched half the remaining sandwich, threw the rest in a bin, got my gear on, jumped on my bike and rode off with them.
As I rode along, burping loudly into my helmet, the half-eaten food churning in my stomach, I began to think about the effect that computers can have on our lives. A perfectly good day out on the bike had been spoilt by whatever it was that had happened to my computer! (And yes, by my own stupidity in not manually saving it as I went!). Computers can spoil your day! And they can also give you indigestion!
