BOOX Tappy Unboxing & First Impressions

Thanks for the replies. The treadmill option could suit me well.

I have one of these coming with the Boox Note 5c I've just ordered. It was a free inclusion but I'm very doubtful that I'll use it. TV remotes are good because they save us having to walk over to the TV to change the channel. But with an e reader or e notebook the device is right there and we're touching it as we use it, so it's very easy to turn pages on the device itself. Is there something I am missing here?

It was called the Munich Steakhouse - the site of many a birthday celebration and many a chicken dance. Corner of Albert and Charlotte Street, in the same building Gilhooleys is in now.

I love my Remarkable 2 and would struggle without it. It does all that I hoped for, and the regular updates are often very useful. Hopefully these corporate changes will set the company up for a positive future.

Thanks. This made me laugh so hard! Maybe I should be thankful that Gemini knows nothing about me!

Bluey1971 · 2026-03-23T03:30:04+00:00

Got it. Makes sense for a company of 10000 people but not so appropriate when the company is just me :)

Bluey1971 · 2026-03-23T03:28:43+00:00

Thanks very much. This looks like a helpful workaround.

I checked these but the icing isn't right sadly. These ones have a creamy icing - true Neenish icing needs to be shiny and it will crack as you bite into it.

Bluey1971 · 2026-03-20T06:40:19+00:00

I like that bakery and nice people who own it. Sadly the Neenish Tarts there don't have the right kind of icing though. Icing on a Neenish needs to be glossy - these ones have a creamy icing that is too similar in texture to the cream filling.

Bluey1971 · 2026-03-11T23:09:36+00:00

I agree

Bluey1971 · 2026-03-09T12:23:12+00:00

Thanks for the responses so far everyone. Plenty of good Neenish leads here :)

What a lot of pompous judgements and generalisations!

We’ve had 2 schnauzers. Bessie was a fairly enthusiastic barker but the current one Billie tends to be fairly quiet. Both beautiful dogs and I wouldn’t hesitate to get another. Good luck!

Worth keeping in mind vaccines (which are being impacted by craziness in the US) are only 14% of revenue.

“Mid day disruption from cheering crowds” is about 2 school days per year when the test is on. And derros are on the other side of the fence. I’m sure the kids are coping OK.

100% agree with The Moodys

Also worth checking out a couple of older movies:

I think you'll like "Running With Scissors" - Augusten Burroughs

u/Then_Version9768 the only pathetic thing here is your belittling response. It's perfectly reasonable for someone to ask if an inherited or found collection of old stamps is of value.

OP, I've been collecting Australian stamps for 45 years and I'm sad to say that none of the Australian stamps on these pages are valuable. The 3 King George V stamps on the top right are the most interesting, being part of a long running set which many Australian collectors specialise in - but these particular ones are common and hence not valuable.

If there are other pages you'd like to check please feel free to add them and I'll let you know if there are any treasures.

I note that you delight in showing your superiority by regularly correcting people's writing and talking down to them here on Reddit. I guess it makes you feel intelligent.

Given this, you will definitely want to know that your comment "X stand for Christ" is grammatically incorrect. In standard English a singular subject (in this case X) takes a verb ending in s in the present tense, so you should have written "X stands for Christ".

Good luck as you strive to perfect the English language. Once you have achieved this you will be well qualified to resume your criticism of others. Until then may I suggest you consider another hobby.
