Mum is pleased with the hairdo. Turns out she'd been doing some random DIY trimming which made things a bit more difficult but the hairdresser had no doubt seen worse.

I think it made her feel a bit more normal to be doing things like going to the hairdresser, so I will endeavour to make it a more frequent occurrence for her.

Quite a peaceful day, just tinkering around with bits

It’s the Apple Event at 18:00, announcing the new iPhones and such. Will this be the year I get a new one? There’s only been three such years in the history of the Universe, so the odds are against it

I intentionally updated a few weeks ago - because I suspect phone prices are going to be heading up a bit..

Oops. I must have over enthusiastically removed all the tracking junk.

I’m tempted by the iPhone 18 Pro Max. My current 12 Pro Max is perfectly fine for stuff like calls, messages, email, and so on. But the camera leaves a lot to be desired compared to the new one - it can’t even do macro shots! And the new variable aperture sounds cool, though they slipped in something about it only having four settings when they thought we weren’t listening…

But pricewise, the old one was a bit over £1,600 with the maximum-in-2021 512GB, whereas the new one maxed out at 2TB would be nearer £2,600

The folding one seems pretty cool too, but that would be over three grand with 2TB. So I might hold off on that until the National Lottery have got their act together and picked the correct numbers for once

Grab the 17 pro max, I got one from Cashconverters for £910 about a month ago..
