The computer kind. German ones have some of the keys swapped around and a difficult to find @ sign. It was a very interesting and curious business using a different keyboard. Constantly having to go back and correct.
I hadn't quite appreciated that keyboards come in different flavours according the language.
Even more interesting was the internet computer area at the airport on my return. Some joker had prised off a few keys and transposed them. So when I logged into one of my email accounts it required both the transposed letters and not being sure if I typed the right letter as we know passwords are usually hidden by asterixes. Or is it asterixii?

Try a Greek keyboard. Plenty of letters that aren't even in our alphabet!
LOL too funny.

Sometimes I am so glad that I found your blog because you are so wonderful. You give such great prespective on things and make it much clearer. What you said about my Mum is so true. We most definately should start a Bad Mothers Group with Jo.
Take care Doris and have a super fab weekend with your lovely family xxx

I use a french keyboard which I'm used to now. I wonder how big a chinese keyboard is?
P.S. Glad to see you're back. :)
I'm back-although under a new nickname and I've switched back to my old url, just to confuse you! :)
Hope you are well! Both me and the bump are doing well, it's not long to go now!
As for the keyboard thing, I have the same problem as Chandira with the pound sign or rather the lack of a pound sign! Very frustrating sometimes!
When you said you were going walkabout, I thought that you were speaking metaphorically, not that you were actually going to do it.
I always enjoy reading your bl*g so welcome back, I was a little worried that we had lost your wonderful thought provoking blogging but happily I was wrong
