Trialling Mailmate for macOS mail. Looks great and supports writing in Markdown. Feels like I’ve hardly scratched the surface of the app’s capabilities.
PowerPic. Brilliant design from Twelve South.
Black & White TV, not HD or HDR:
A total of 7,161 UK households have failed to start watching in colour despite transmissions starting in 1967.
Installed Scriptable to my iPad. All I need now is to know JavaScript.
C’mon America, you can do it!
For the 4th night in a row we have fireworks going off every few seconds. It’s really not fair for Minnie or any other pets.
I’m really starting to use the hell out of drafts dictate function… Even if it does get a few things wrong
My experience of Siri shortcuts is frustrated by Siri’s inability to launch shortcuts when the phone is locked
Someone is setting off World War III outside. Anyone who has animals will tell you that fireworks aren’t fun. There’s less “ohhh” and “ahhh”, and more whimpering and uncontrollable shaking. It’s distressing.
It’s incredible that the UK still has no policy in place to limit the use of fireworks. Anyone with pets knows all too well the terror they endure at this time of year.

Recently the blog has taken a backseat to other activities, both personal and professional. Hope to change this in the coming weeks.
I really like the look of the new iPad Pros, with straight, non-tapered edges on the enclosure. However, I’d prefer my pro computing platform to have pro software, so I’m sticking with macOS.
Fantastic piece of marketing for the BBC Sounds App, combining music, radio and podcasts.
Ding Dong!!! What sounds like a doorbell, and every dog in the bar starts barking.
Beautiful product photography. All Macs that I really, really want even if I don’t need.
“Austerity finally coming to an end”… at least until March.
My blogging use has overtaken my use of DayOne, but making Markdown entries I’m bemused by the developers removal of such a powerful tool when if anything Markdown has been increasing in use and popularity. I don’t understand their logic.
Enjoying the last 2/3 of the bottle and it’s very, very nice.
A year or 2 ago I won good bottle of red wine donated to the company. It’s sat gathering in the wine rack till tonight… when my better half poured 1/3 into a bolognese. Serves me right for holding on to it.
Experimenting with the Aeropress.

I don’t hate email. But there’s a special circle in hell reserved for those who Reply to All.
Finally received my new Apple Watch Series 4. A significant upgrade from my original/Series 0. Very easy transition process. But instantly turned off the haptics on the crown, the Apple Watch equivalent of Key Clicks on iOS.
