I am looking to replace my current Samsung 7" tablet which is becoming increasingly arthritic and eccentric. (One of us is enough.) But with what? Same again? Or are there things on the market now more suited to my needs? I use it mainly for surfing the net and writing emails when I can't access my 'proper' computer. I…
When I came back from this Indian hospital I have been 6 or 7 hours too late. Little bro just found our father dead. Little brother is my Portuguese half brother and he is much younger than I am. Plus, we all live in different countries, have different nationalities, speak a couple of different languages and so on. Well-…

As I sit in my warm lounge next to a slightly open window (yes, you did read that…
I apologise for the late posting of this, Ron, it's only just caught my eye. I hope you have enjoyed your special day with family and friends. DD
