   Oh what a wonderful lovely surprise 😁 2 in a week! The carbon dating meter has reset again 😆 I also didn’t realise how beefy Jami’s Sandwich was … sorry guys 😂

   We only have Netflix and YouTube subs, and for me they’re worth it for what you get for them, especially YT since it gives you Music.

   You have to do the age verification? 😶 but I’m guessing your account is older than mine too. How did you get around it? And more importantly, how are you finding the Toenail update?

   Chris! That’s the one. What a wonderful man 😁 maybe when you finally buy a new iPad or MBP he’ll be the one to deliver 😆 I mean you’ve done 3 Studios … it’s only right to iPad and laptop 😆

   Ahhh I never got to actually listen to that show, so the replay was a welcome listen 😊

   First Apple product aware of – for me it was the iMac G3 I think it was called? The college where I did my A-levels had a room full of them, and at the time I was only a Windows user so I remember hating how strange and alien a Mac felt at the time. Funny how the tables have turned 😂 shortly after that it was the 1st gen iPod mini, which I got in silver and adored, especially because of the sturdy metal clip it came with that you could attach to the top of your trousers. Memories …

   Tesco Clubcard points 😂 that’s completely changed now. We used to be able to get the entire shop for the Xmas and New Year period with the points. Not anymore.

   I always wanted the Mac Pro, I think it was after the bin but before the huge cheese grater one, which looked like the iMacs of the time but was way more powerful … but it was way, way, WAY out of my price range 😂 alas, I never got a Pro either.

   I think I’d like the benefits a touchscreen MBP, but the thing I think we all know is it would effectively kill the iPad, which is still very lucrative for them. Business wise I can see why it’s unlikely to happen. In saying that, having a desktop machine now for over a year, I don’t think I’d really want to go back to a laptop as my main machine again. Especially now I have two incredibly sexy monitors to go with the desktop 😂

   I’m not into folding phones at all tbh. I don’t trust the mechanism where it folds and can see it being problematic after heavy use.

   I recently downloaded Brave but haven’t had a play with it yet. Almost went to it when I had that little Vivaldi issue this week, but since that resolved itself I didn’t need to.

   Best Apple product I’ve had … I think for me it would have to be the 1st gen iPad Pro and the original Pencil. It was the tech development I’d waited years for, and because I was very heavily into my digital art at the time it was a godsend. I loved the massive screen size increase we got, a big boost to storage and it just worked perfectly. I only replaced it because I wanted the 2nd gen Pencil, but I probably could have carried on with1st gen iPad Pro longer without issue. I did get it in the tacky gold though 😂 same with my first iPhone (5S). I grew out of it 😂

   Worst for me were the Apple keyboard and Magic Mouse. I made so many typing errors cos I either hit the wrong keys or didn’t know if I’d pressed hard enough, and the mouse just swiped everywhere and had a mind of its own. I still have them, but they live in the guest room on the spare table for if either of us fancy a change of scenery … which we don’t tend to 😂

   Oh blimey. From the rare pictures we’ve seen of you I don’t remember you having any signs of scarring, so you healed up well at least 😊 Daddy wanting to smoke 😂 that’d have been both my parents had it happened to them.

   I remember when I first moved to Crewe in 2009 there were these NHS run centres where you could go for non-emergency and out of hours stuff so you didn’t clog up A&E … they appear to be gone everywhere now 😶 another nonsensical choice on the part of governments since.

   Next purchase is a long, long way off for me, as I have very good everything so far tbh. Since my desktop gets the most use, I’d imagine that will be the one, but again, much further down the road. Not interested in the big headphones since I learned they have no power button. A ridiculous thing.

   Get the iPad 😆 an 11 inch M5 Pro one. You’re so long overdue. And you can finally have a Pencil Pro too 😁

   I had Forklift accost me with a demand for a new license if I want to do any further updates as well 😒 I did not comply, so I’ll see how long it lasts before it stops working.

   Jami didn’t want to miss it! 😆 Thanks for sharing it, even if it’s several weeks later. Better late than pregnant again 😂 and hello past-Kimmee 😁

   See you all in the chat on Sunday 😁 so happy you’re back.
