Arrived in Prague later than expected. First thing we see approaching a taxi rank is a guy peeing in public and then we were charged 4 times the expected taxi price. Haha ๐จ๐ฟ

I seem to be in a gadget buying frenzy. Apple iPad mini 7. Anyone upgrading ?
Ok, I do not wantt to start a political debate; however this is funny. Apologies on threads - it is Walt Mossberg though ๐ www.threads.net/@mossberg…
I was up until the early hours trying to figure out the best way to get high quality music. I subscribe to streaming services and 10 years on, I feel I have nothing to show for it ๐๐
Finished the latest season of Slow Horses . It stands well on its own as a TV program away from the books
It is a bad day when it takes me up until 16:30 to open micro blog. I need to sort my priorities out
iA presenter is not a finished or perfect app from the people behind iA writer. I will still probably buy it without a need for it right now . I am just a sucker for good quality tools โjust in case I need themโ ๐คฆ๐ฝโโ๏ธ @ia@mastodon.online

Debate in our house. I say wearing headphones beyond having calls in the office, helps me concentrate and block out unnecessary chatter when Iโm busy. Others say I am being unsociable ..thoughts? ๐ง

This article โShould you Tipโ reminds me of a couple of occasions when we have been out with friends.
The new law means the service charge must now be paid to staff.
About time!
One couple said after spending ยฃ360, between the six of us and being the only people in the restaurant, that no tip is required where as another couple insisted.
An occasion in a coffee shop in India, where the barista chased me out the door to tell me she is not allowed to accept a tip and then an occasion at JFK, where the waitress took a baguette and placed it on a plate for me. As I did not tip for my ($19) baguette in 2007, she ridiculed me in front of everyone for being a typical Brit.
Upon returning to NYC, prior to the pandemic with my family. I would tip the doorman, driver and in restaurants. This time they either accepted it or looked disgusted that it was not over 20%. You will never keep everyone happy!

I feel more joy at the moment using a laptop/ MacBook over a tablet. Is it just me ?
I have been going through my podcasts and seem by bored of the same old tech shows I listen too. Wondery does not feel as good as it used to be. Anyone have any recommendations? I am open to genres, but do not need anyone else to tell me to โbelieve in myselfโ. ๐ง
