I sound my barbaric #yawp over the roofs of the world. This is by way of a test
Made it to the car battery shop. The battery I needed was out of stock. So they fitted one with narrower posts and special lead sleeves over the posts to make up the difference.
Last night at a Mac User group meeting I was giving the audience a run-down on the fnd.io website, which is an unofficial software search site for all Apple Stores. The next presentation was to be on Pages app on the Mac, so I chose to search for Pages.
The site quickly displayed the Apple app Pages for both iOS & Mac, plus several other apps with Pages in their names.
Then I went hunting for a particular book, which was found in very short order.
Some ratbag in the mob then drew my attention back to Pages with an inane question, so I searched for Pages again, but this time with the Books tab selected on the website.
Nothing was found, so I announced that there were limitations: You can't find Pages in Books.
Had a chat a few hours ago with the gentleman who bought my old 11-in MBA (2011 model) a year ago. His son who uses it at university reckons it's still pretty good and the only real problem, lack of decent battery life, is addressed via a HyperJuice external battery.
It's just after 1 am on Friday. Later today I'm headed off to a car battery place about 30 minutes away. Why choose them instead of a local place? Price, mostly. I've already bought & paid for the battery, free fitting was chosen. I just need to rock up with my printed receipt (sent via e-mail) & they'll do the job making sure no accessories lose their memorise settings.
Bought some unusual (but nice) cheeses today. A mild, pleasant cheddar-style cheese but with goats milk. Very easy-going & pleasant. Plus a regular cheddar flavoured with chunks of orange peel, lemon peel & ginger. Feisty & fruity with a nice mature cheddar bite to it.
@bazbt3 No, you haven't lost the plot, baz. More like the whole frigging cemetery.
@bazbt3 Oh dear. I fear old age isn't just creeping up on poor baz. It's galloping after him with a vengeance.
