I have a pile of work to do, including my son’s end of year tax assessment, and yet here I sit, blogging, designing new themes and generally achieving zilch! Filling in a tax return is not my idea of fun but at least I can do it online….a much quicker and easier way than the old way of filling out numerous forms and adding too many numbers together.

The amount of things that can now be done online, never cease to amaze me. A fairly recent addition to these is our go-ahead, innovative local G.P.’s surgery. They have now made it possible for patients to book an appointment online. By logging in with your username and password, you are able to view all the slots available and then book the one most convenient for you. After years and years of having to constantly redial an engaged phone and then missing all available appointments that day, this has to be one of the best ideas ever! Dave has also recently signed up for a brand new service with his hospital where he’s able to log on and see all his test results. This is especially useful to him as his blood tests are a vital part of his treatment.

I have to say that I do love the internet. It has it’s downside, as in all walks of life. But on the whole I do think it’s enriched our society and far exceeded anyone’s expectations of how it would infiltrate our lives.
