Morning all :hello:

Our binmen didn't turn up as scheduled yesterday, so yet another email to the council. 😠
Off to ALDI this morning.
Looks like it'll be raining all day.

Some collections were put back a day due to the public holidays. Did you check their website?


Morning. I thought I was going to get an early walk but I can see the road glistening so will give it a miss just now.

Mornin'. The wind is howling like a howly thing and rain hitting the windows like machine gunfire. Another day in paradise Lancashire. 🤔 Seven hours straight sleep which is very good but I'll try for a nap later.

Still more work to do on the ride calendar, the hovering needs doing, meds to collect and there's a forecast break in the rain around lunchtime so I'll walk over the hill to collect those.

Rovers are at home tonight. We will go but I've no great enthusiasm for it and suspect #1 son won't bother with the 45 minute drive to get here.

Hovering is a good trick if you can do it. :laugh::laugh::laugh:

Reviews generally read really well ! About the only detrimental comments I’ve read have been about weight. And that it’s quite heavy ?

I have a 15” laptop I use while lounging in the front room. And dislike it for the ‘weight’ of it. So am considering a smaller / tablet.

How are you finding the Lenovo weight wise ?

Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.

I always go for Samsung tablets. Not as light as some, but I don't like flimsy stuff. Never had any problems with them.

I've not noticed it, it's a little heavier than the 10" Lenovo I've been using if I hold them one in each hand but I've not noticed it whilst using it. .

Our Galaxy S7 Lite weighs 360g against the Lenovo at 490g.

The Galaxy feels nice and chunky so I would get on with the Lenovo too - It's only a few ounces more and I like a bit of heft in products. Not that anyone will really notice the additional small amount of weight.

Many reviews contain negative dross often by tech review sites who compare everything to the latest and greatest.

We just replaced our Huawei phones with a pair of Galaxy S13's (£190 down to £130 - absolute bargain) and some of the tech reviews said the chip used was slow and laggy.

Seriously! It's a very competent phone and we've never seen any sign of slowness or laggyness (word?).
