I've just noticed that my Mentions list is severely shortened, having two mentions for this month, then the next one is from February 2018. There seems to be something missing.

There a now-deceased Australian performer called Jon English who did an interesting version of Turn The Page. It's one of the songs from his Six Ribbons album from 1974.

This one consists of 20 capsules, 3 per day with food. I'm to see the GP for more if the condition doesn't go away. At this stage I do not envisage any problems

I did get rapid treatment, I've been given a 7-day course of antibiotics and already there's improvement. Being a disability pension recipient, the clinic's fees are fully paid my Medicare, our NHS equivalent.

Picked up a nasty chest infection, need to phone the medical clinic when they open in 20 minutes. With my medical history and autoimmune disease, I have a hospital go-bag packed in case that is necessary. Such a thing has been needed twice in the last five years.

I just use the iPhone on a tripod via Continuity Camera.

Observations on using the Apple Studio Display with Zoom.
The camera needs more light during daylight hours, currently supplied by the ring-light part of the old webcam. It has three touch selectable levels of illumination. It has an array of three microphones, together they don't sound as good as the Audio-Technica USB condenser mic I used to use so that's my go-to audio input device. The speakers are excellent, totally replacing a 2008 Logitech 15W USB subwoofer 2.1 stereo speaker setup. Now I have to find a use for that speaker setup, it's still very effective. The webcam in Centre Stage mode is inadequate; I prefer it in "normal" mode. If necessary I can use the iPhone's rear camera as a webcam via Continuity Camera. In Zoom, once you get more that about 5 participants, their effective webcam resolution drops to around 720p levels anyway.
It integrates so well with my other Apple gear, I can accept the high price because it has the promise of working fine for a decade or more as well as replacing other stand-alone peripherals.

You really shouldn’t equte screen resolution to photo resolution, they are different concepts.

(At Hadrian's Wall)
Roman soldier: "Centurion, there's a problem."

Centurion: "What is it?"

Roman soldier: "It's these painted guys keep showing up, they draw a cock on the wall and run back off north."

Centurion: "Urgh, unsolicited Pict dicks."

Well, it turns out the Studio Display will not arrive tomorrow as originally scheduled.

Why? Because it arrived today at 11:30 am. I have it set up now. I have been able to retire a few peripherals, one being a still very effective 2008 Logitech 2.1 stereo soundbar incorporating a 3-port powered USB 2.0 hub. The other retiree (other than the cheap display) is a 4-port Thunderbolt 4 hub/dock. I had only used one of its ports with Thunderbolt, the other three had various USB-C cables used to connect external drives or my iPad Air5.

The Studio Display has three downstream USB-C ports connected to the Mac Mini via the included Thunderbolt cable. If I were to use the display with the MacBook Air, that Thunderbolt connection would also charge the laptop at up to 96W.
