Uzzi, keyboards are cheap, under £10.00.

See if you can have a loan of one to check that you haven't done any damage to your processor.

Uzzi~~
Yours probably needs a burial !
As Foggy said keyboards are cheap as chips !
We have a few spare if you are desperate, wired or wireless , take your pick☺☺
Hope you haven't damaged your processor , mine is upright and way away from the keyboard, if I had an accident the printer below may suffer:(

I tell it as it is Sue M :)

Hubby's a suc**** for an apology, no that's the wrong word.Sorry !!!

Let's just say there are ways and means to make a good apology :)

Honestly, mine are usually quite tame, well thought out but accepted, thankfully !

How about a wipe over the keyboard with one of those wet ones that are meant for computers, there is also a keyboard spray.... this might get rid of the stickiness from the honey. Then it might just might become mobile again.

Otherwise I am with Sandie, use your wiley ways .... ignore Sue this is not her thread.

Our IT person was picking away at his keyboard one day when it had jammed - he had dropped one of his noodles in there from the day before's lunch and it had dried and caused a malfunction. So it can happen to anyone.
