Exeter Pride 2017

Posted: 2017-05-14 by Michael | #BenBradshaw, #dog, #Exeter, #ExeterNorthernhayGardens, #ExeterPride, #Pride, #Voigtlander40f14 |

Sam and I went to Exeter Pride – it was my first Pride event. I’m not really part of the LGTBQ thing – I’m straight and cis, but I do support the idea that people should be however and whoever they are, and love whoever they love. Well, more accurately, I can’t begin to understand […]

Devon County Show 2015

Posted: 2016-05-02 by Michael | #car, #DevonCountyShow, #llama, #Owl, #TitanTheRobot, #tractionengine, #tractor |

The Devon County Show is an annual event in Devon, where, for three days, a set of fields at Westpoint, near Exeter, become a showground and shopping area the size of a fairly impressive town centre. In theory, it’s an agricultural show, but there’s a lot more. There are tractors and traction engines, shops from […]

Looking down on Lauren, looking down.

Trying Bear

Posted: 2018-03-03 by Michael | #AppleNotes, #bear, #software |

I’d heard plenty about Bear, the note-taking and writing app for iOS and macOS, but I’d dismissed it because it used its own sync service instead of iCloud. But I was wrong. It doesn’t, it does use iCloud. I think I’d read about it using a subscription for syncing, and assumed that meant their own […]

iPhone X: Upgrading From my iPhone 7

Posted: 2018-02-24 by Michael | #Apple, #iPhone, #iPhoneX |

I’ll start with the story of how I came to be upgrading, and how the upgrade, through EE’s annual upgrade program, happened, so skip forward a bit if you just want to know my first impressions of the iPhone X. Background If you’re in the UK, phones are still commonly supplied by the mobile service […]

A Bunch of Small Changes

Posted: 2018-02-05 by Michael | #Cloudflare, #PigPog, #WordPress |

I started tonight by scheduling a few photos to post over the next week and a half, then remembered something I wanted to look into with WordPress. I enabled the ‘likes’ feature, since it seems to be getting some use through WordPress’ own system anyway. I then remembered that I’d been coming round to the […]

Getting a TV – LG 4k 43”

Posted: 2017-12-27 by Michael | #Palm, #Plex, #purchase, #tv |

We haven’t had a TV for a long time. Last TV we bought was a CRT. Big and heavy, but only, I think, a 21” screen. Seemed big at the time. Back in those days, TVs weren’t smart. They used coax and SCART sockets, and other than displaying the signal they were sent from an […]
