I didn’t get this out last week as life just got in the way, so this is a sorta doubled up bumper pack of last week and this weeks stuff.

Trio the cat sat on my wife’s legs

Stuff 5

  • πŸ“± iPhone 15 Pro Max continues to impress for photos and video. I bought Final Cut Pro for the iPad today so I’m looking forwards to having a play with the possibilities there.

  • πŸ“· Had real fun doing the Micro.Blog photo @challenge again. I’ve seen some other people have made specific pages containing their photos. I’ll have to try and do the same πŸ€”

  • 🍁 I’m looking forward to autumn kicking up a notch and getting out there taking some photos.

  • πŸ“± Whilst I have my problems with the FineWoven cases for sure after a week with the case, it’s actually looking pretty much the same as when I bought it.

  • πŸŽ₯ SSD recording on the iPhone works great now I have a compatible cable.

  • πŸ‰ Really enjoying watching how playing rugby is making my youngest flourish. I am the antithesis of sporty and it’s exciting for me to branch out and learn an understanding of the sport and also stretch my social horizons myself.

  • 🏎️ Excited about the rumour F1 may be coming to Apple

  • πŸ™‡β€β™‚οΈ For shame, I haven’t done the next Japan diary yet, but I am making a start on it now!

Stuff 6

  • πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈπŸ’¨ This week has been a blur with work, kids clubs and ever continuing bureaucracy around my father’s death and sorting through stuff. My wife has been really under the weather this week as well but is thankfully slowly on the mend now.

  • 🏨 Got some holiday dates coming up. Tomorrow that I’ll use to recharge, reset and potter around the house, and a week off in a few weeks where I’m scheming to get to London and Manchester. This will involve one of the most tedious processes known to man… hiring a car 😱 1

  • πŸ’Έ I have so much old computer and gaming stuff I have to sell. I don’t think I can deal with the hassle of eBay anymore so tomorrow I will research selling it off to Backmarket as it seems to be the closest thing to how Apple deals with trade ins where you just freepost in it and get your lucre after they inspect it.

  • πŸ“· I’d love to get out somewhere and carry on testing out the iPhone 15 Pro Max camera capabilities. Maybe when I’m on my travels…

  • πŸ›’ We went to Costco! and stocked up on some bits as well as got some treats. Photo doesn’t show the refrigerated stuff we got (Cheese, meats etc). Some great savings to be had as long as you don’t get carried away buying some of the more crazy things they have there.


  1. God I hate the whole “Do you want the extra insurance” sales pitch you constantly have to go through every time… ↩︎
