Am I Twp?

 When I see a book review on some ones blog, that looks like a book I would enjoy, I usually look it up.. I saw 'Mrs Endicott's Splendid Adventure,' I decided to borrow it from the library,  but the only copy was an ebook. I can't remember who's blog I saw the book.

I did have the Borrow box app. on my old phone, so down loaded it again yesterday afternoon on my new phone and onto my laptop .  The book wasn't available, so I reserved it,  but then saw an author I liked so decided to down load that book, as a sort of trial. (had I down loaded it properly)

I was all hooked up with my headphones plugged into my laptop listening, when Dh came into the lounge and just looked at me.. because the voice was coming from my phone and not my lap top, and it took me a while to realise, it was on my phone and not coming through my lap top and head phones!!

We've both laughed and laughed about it.. Dh said he wondered what I was up to...am I twp   (Twp=Welsh for daft!)

LOL even  more...... as the confirmation for the book is that it will be available........ 26/07/26!!!

We have laughed and laughed.. Well I am an OAP and not supposed to be au fait with technology!

It has happened to me as well! That's a long time to wait for the book...

The pronounciation of twp. The vowel is as in put. Or book with a short oo sound. So you can say someone is a tup and they'll have idea what you're saying.
