David Lodge "Thinks" (Penguin)

Thinks... : a novel by David Lodge




A predictable novel full of cliches. The main characters are a 50 year old lecturer and a recently widowed novelist and it is obvious from the beginning that they will fall into an affair. How this happens is predictable and I could also see how the novel would end from a great distance. Some witty moments, but these did not make up for the pedestrian and sloppy story line.

The wi-fi built into my old laptop keeps failing , and i find i have to reboot the laptop for it to operate.   Then it fails again.  The other laptop that my brother gave me works fine. So what i have done is that i placed an order from Amazon for a wi-fi dongle for the cheap price of £4.99, which has got good reviews by customers. This should give me the stavility of wi-fi that i need, particularly for streaming video.
