Is Your Cuppa Looking For a Fight?

I sit myself by the tv,

Put my laptop on my knee, when the phone rings

So I answer it you see.

I forget about my tea, resting at the side of me

Til it flows towards my laptop

Full of glee.

But I think you ought to know

I moved quite quick and missed the flow,

Which must have had my laptop sighing with relief.

It's reallly not set up

To handle liquid from a cup.

Too much of that, and its life would be quite brief. 

Don't do what I have done

A ruined laptop's not much fun

Eschew the armchair when you're sitting down to write.

Remove that cuppa by your arm

Don't be smitten by its charm,

You never know when it is looking for a fight.

This one made me chuckle, Sue. It's a good warning, too.

Yes Sharon,

I was just lucky that time and am now trying to be more careful with things.
