Mornin
Sunny, dull, sunny, dull and cool
New lady came shopping with me yesterday and picked some stuff out I might like to wear :rolleyes: 🤔
Invited me out for drinks at local pub with her later this evening.. :)
Sunny again , done a bit of food shopping
Time for lunch
Stay happy all :D
New lady... Explains why you are quiet here. We are obviously not as exciting as new blood on tinder 🤣
 
Just got back from dropping W at Carcassonne airport.
Such a nice place, really friendly and handicapped friendly in the extreme.
Didn't even have to pay for car parking as I managed it, just, in the 15 mins they give you free.
Not at all like Bournemouth where dottir will have to pay lord knows what to park just to pick her up.
Dogs spent quite a while looking for her when I returned. :(
We decided to practise "whatsApp" ing each other as I don't do phones well at all. So switched my phone on a while before we left.
Comes up with "you need to update and have done since about 5 days ago." so got it to do it, only I didn't cos we have a problem with our internet service at the mo which is snail-slow. Got back, put it on to do it again, it is STILL doing it.
You do know how I HATE tech don't you? :mad::mad::mad::mad:

Yes but instead of being completely ignorant you are still persevering through it so that's more than most
 
No we do and she's said the other week she hasn't had one in a while so gonna treat her
This set me thinking as obvs my grans and grandas would never have barbecued.
My Dad and Mum never owned a pair of jeans.
Never barbecued.
Never had any sort of computer.
Never had a mobile, (really obvs)
Never took a digital photo.
Never even had a video recorder.
Never ordered food or groceries delivered.

He died in '98 and my mum in '88

How the flipping world has changed.

They have had BBQs but the chicken was v pink and it was very basic. They used to go over to USA in 70s and got a taste for it there.

an Apple product?????
You really are trying to make my head explode aren't you?
W has had quite enough probs with her Apple stuff. The latest being forced to replace an iPad cos the charging thingy would no longer work. Batt was OK, rest of it OK, but unmendable. So they kept it and sold her a new one "cheaper" at £400 odd.
For Flip's sake! :mad: :mad: :mad:
and on an Apple you can't even have more than one internet screen open at the same time. Or if you can she doesn't know how.

My ma died of breast cancer in her late 50s, my Pa died of who knows what actually cos he lay dead for a fortnight, they tried to say "pneumonia" but there was no evidence of his having even had a cold. He was 77 and had only 1/5th of his lung area working due to TB, since he was 18, so he did well.
The average age of death has gone up a little bit but then receded.
So you tell me? !;)🤣

How many tabs do I need to open.
You can do split screen too, but I find the phone or IPad a bit small for that.

May well be as I have to change it anyway due to 3g and 4g not being good enough and my 4g phone doesn't have the new "voice " thing on.
My Lappy is an old Samsung Notebook and I love it to bits. Only problem is that physically the carcase and the keyboard are falling to bits. You should see how much of it is held together with tape!!!
