DoctorLaptop’s Computer Repairs & Services:
I repair what others can only replace. All makes. Most jobs completed overnight.
What’s coming in the next big Windows 10 Update v1809 in Oct?
There are some significant, overdue changes such as an updated Clipboard with new Clip & Paste functions, and fairly silly updates like support for 157 new emojis. And of course they have reshuffled the Settings. What I found especially disturbing is the addition of these 2 terms in Settings: Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. Here is an example of AI at work. We already have predictive spelling, type 2 or 3 letters and the word pops up before you can finish typing. Now your comp will guess the next word before you finish typing the current word. I certainly don’t need Google to put their spin on what my next word should be. And I don’t need Machine Learning (since it surely knows better than me) altering settings I specifically set in a certain fashion.

Blood test recommendation wanted: Looking for recommendation for clinic to undertake a blood test. Preferably Velez-Malaga area.
Many thanks in advance. Paul, Valez, paul@hageman.co.uk

Salud 101 Update, Clinica Rincon has changed hands: We are members of Clinica Rincon’s very useful Salud101 scheme which gives discounts on private medical treatment. One of its advantages is it does not refuse pre-existing conditions. We just found out that Clinica Rincon has changed hands and the scheme is now closed to new members. I have tried to get more information but the receptionists I talked to didn’t seem to know much. They think that existing memberships will continue and can be renewed, at least for now. Does anyone have more information, or can anyone recommend a similar scheme suitable for ‘topping up’ health service cover?

To my person: My name is Kiki Trenew. I am practising Yoga since more than 16 years – nearly every day – and it changed my life. To understand Yoga you have to practise regular. With increasing practise your power, confindence & well-being will grow slowly. Your view will go to the inside and this will make a change in your life. Everybody can practise my Yoga whatever age or physical condition. The adaption of the Yoga postures to every single student is very important for me as we all have different bodies. I mix Ayur Yoga, Yin Yoga & Vinyasa Flow Yoga – the basic you will find in Hatha Yoga. Every class can be different as i always work in needs of my students. Come along and try out and learn to boost & stretch in a healthy way.
Wishing you all a wonderful week, light & love Kiki

Have you got German Win XP computer? Help needed – does anyone out there still have a German WinXP running on their computer? I changed some of the folder names to English on mine and it does not run properly – I have forgotten the originals. o, if you have yours still running perhaps a reminder for me over phone or email would be very helpful.

Pool Covers: Some time ago I advertised a pool roller and offered to give info on where to get covers. The roller didn’t sell but I have had lots of people asking about the supplier and they have all come back to me saying they agree that they are good value. So I thought I would post this for everyone! The supplier is www.outlet-piscinas.com You have a choice of buying uncut or fully shaped and edged. You can size and buy online but if your shape isn’t shown contact the sales team, they are very helpful. We have had ours a season now and are very pleased indeed.
