No.70 Thursday, 12th.February 2026

For over 10 years I have written my diary in a well-known app for that purpose on my iPad. But the app died this morning and I have failed to revive it. However, it is still working on iPhone and Mac, but since typing this on the iPhone is fiddly and distracting I fired up the Mac. It is okay but not ideal – for one thing I keep stabbing the screen every time I want to move the cursor – I have been brainwashed by the iPad touchscreen!

Hopefully you cannot tell the difference. I have become unexpectedly diverted with all this tech excitement and consequently find myself running out of morning – and thoughts! I shall treat myself to a second cappuccino by way of compensation.
