            Oh dear...

            "Hey WTFH, you know you were chatting to me about your next car"
            Me: "yes, order in March, delivery in April/May"
            "Would you mind if it was a '67 plate, registered in February"
            Me: "not an issue to me"
            "It's just we might be able to get a better deal. There's one of them in the UK."

              Home again

              Had a very nice lunch, and general chitchat with the parents. We watched that World In Action programme about the Liverpool A&E department from 1975, as they remember the Royal Southern Hospital (my Mum hated the place).

              And that led on eventually to us all gathered round my Dad's monitor (he prefers desktops to laptops) looking on StreetView at the house in Wales that he lived in when he was evacuated for a year or so during the war, and the walk to the village school (over a mile each way); and then around various bits of Woolton (my great grandmother lived down that road, and off to the right are steps up to the churchyard containing Eleanor Rigby's grave) and surrounding areas whence my Mum's family originated. I drove, as I'm better at StreetView than they are

                Oh, and of course there was an IT issue to fix

                To be precise, when my Dad went to a certain website in Firefox (his browser of choice) no, or hardly any, images loaded; whereas in Chrome, they did.

                Digging around, it turned out the site does that thing of loading without images, then pulling them in via JavaScript; and the script was failing because the browser's localStorage for that site was corrupted. Cleared the site's localStorage, and it worked again

                The site in question? Mail Online…

                    It appears that permission has been granted for the procurement of a new vehicular transportation device.
