Congratulations on the anniversary, Chris! ?Give us a wave as you pass us on your way to Totnes! ?We used to go there every so often, when we lived in Hittisleigh I think it was. ?The last time we set out to go, from Clyst St Mary, we lost our enthusiasm after a while and went somewhere else instead.

We are taking a couple of nights in a hotel in Sidmouth, to cover the Air Show on the Friday (27th). ?Yes, we could go down on the bus as we always have done before but we wanted to spoil ourselves!
Best
Susan

Hi Jude

Yes, we have been a bit quiet, but I was thinking about you and your iPad Pro yesterday, wondering how things were going.

I hope that your relative is OK. ?COVID remains a problem . . .

The iPad is a conundrum: it¡¯s really powerful and fast, but there are things that you can¡¯t do with it. ?Do you have the magic keyboard? ?I tend to take both iPad (Air 3rd gen) and MacBook (2017 12¡± Retina) because the latter has the filing system that works with my photo programme (Capture One Pro) and my photo filing. ?It¡¯s not as fast as my iPad or my iMac (2019) but it does the job while on holiday. ?And we¡¯re heading off to Devon, near Totnes, on Thursday for six nights. ?We¡¯ll have electric power but nothing else at the site.

When my training contract pays up I¡¯ll get myself the latest iPad Air, and perhaps buy my wife a new iMac (if she¡¯ll let me) to replace the 2011 20¡±.

It was our 41st wedding anniversary yesterday and we have a ¡°date night¡± to night at the local pub; it¡¯s owned by Mark Hix, a pretty well-known chef for seafood. ?I¡¯m not keen on seafood but there will be red meat as well.

Cheers

Chris

Hope you're all ok up there. ?I took delivery of my iPad -- been experimenting with it. Flash as it is I keep retreating to my Mac....love my Mac. But I will probably find uses for the iPad as I go along. So far I am thinking it is the toy I always thought it was. ?But something to fiddle with while we have been in 5 day lockdown - a chance to teach myself new things . Borders between Qld and NSW look to be closed past Christmas at this point. No one going anywhere down here.

I had a DNA connection come up on Ancestry who is a son of my late mother's only brother late Jun. I sent him some info he replied he had Covid and I haven't heard from him since that email 30th June. ?:-(?
