On Twitter the conversation was about celebrities who’d made great achievements/ discoveries at a young age.

My response was a tad off-beat: “When Mozart was my age, he’d already been dead for 20 years.”

I’m sure this cat is demented. It’s galloping up & down the corridor since I let her in from the front door. She’s worked out how to get from the back yard to the front but relies on non-interference from the neighbour’s equally demented dog to retrace her steps.

It's a beta thingie.

I've not seen my younger sister for a while apart from a few fleeting hours at Mum's place. She's having trouble with her TV setup & wants my help. So it's dinner at her place on Tuesday night while I try to nut it all out.

I dare not cough, for doing so sends spasms through the sore back.

The Mazda CX-5 replaced the physically larger CX-7 yet the 5 is virtually the same size inside & has a greater cargo volume.

Winter 2018, day three, 5:20 am. I am in bed, wearing sweatpants & a fluffy dressing gown, with electric blanket on setting 2 of 3. My wool-filled duvet is rated at 3 blankets-weight.
Lower back pain is obtrusive, extensive & ignoring medication. Weather: 3.6˚C with neither wind nor precipitation.
I AM FREEZING MY ARSE OFF. AND GENERALLY UNIMPRESSED WITH LIFE.

Got three Macs to update to 10.13.5: so I'm downloading the relevant Combo Updater (it's 2.49 GB).

I humbly submit that it could be macOS 14 Stormy Daniels.

The iPad 10.5" is an iPad Pro. So yes. Ordinary iPads are 7.9-inch for the Mini & 9.7-inch for the standard one . iPad Pros are/have been 9.7-inch, 10.5-inch or 12.9-inch.
