The new (to me, anyway) car has a switchblade-style ignition key. So I thought I’d try running the car with the key partly folded to keep the other keys away from my leg. That works, but not for startup: for that operation the key must be fully extended.
It cost me $3 to fix a failing with my car’s audio system: when in iPod mode, the time is not displayed. Solution: cheap stick-on battery powered LCD clock.

Went onto the automobile club website to change my vehicle details for roadside assistance.Te website is a right royal bastard of a thing, overly complex & slow to respond. I updated the vehicle details using the iPad then the whoring session timed out.
Checked again with the Mac & all details had been changed.
I tried the rear seat of the Mazda 2, it’s a decidedly 2nd-class experience when compared to the rear seat in the old Toyota Yaris. Access is awkward as the rear door doesn’t open as wide & legroom is reduced, as is available height. Seats are also uncomfortable.
However, in the 5 years I used the Yaris I only had the back seat occupied for one day. A plus is the inertia reel seatbelt for the centre rear passenger seat is built into the seat-back, rather than deploying from a roof-mounted pod.
@streakmachine Reminds me of a touring car racer out here called Will Power.

Received my first delivery from Amazon Oz today: a leather wallet with 2 compartments for banknotes, one for coins, 18 card slots, 2 photo ID slots and a secure zip section. Plus it’s RFID-protected.
@indigo I'm tempted to disable Mail access to that account before starting a VPN session.
