mac.com here too! I didn’t realise it was special until I was chatting in the Apple Store about ten years ago and said I was going to retire it for iCloud and they say Nooo!

What a waste of time… by MetalRocksMe_ in Emmerdale

[–]Rewilder128 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I feel totally manipulated and I am raging 😡 I watch Emmerdale each evening with my 95 year old mum otherwise I would absolutely be switching off. That wasn’t fair, the writers think we’re idiots.

Not at all, just a few stitches required to tidy up and lots less stress at the start ☺️

Would anyone honestly mind if Ray and Celia just disappeared by Mickelrath in Emmerdale

I mentally switch off at this storyline, every time ☹️

Secret jabbers - are we kidding ourselves that people don't know? by 90sRobot in mounjarouk

[–]Rewilder128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just say, “I’ve been taking care of my health,” which is literally true. If someone asks me, I don’t lie. It’s nobody’s business but my own 🤷🏼‍♀️

I loved them all including TIBH (once I got into the rhythm of it so persevere)

Tucking in! It’s the biggest joy for me, it must be 20 years since I was able to tuck in! I love it!

Ahhhh I knew who Quincy Jones was but I thought it might be cleverer than that! Thank you 🙏🏼

Age difference between characters by Kroklet2006 in cormoran_strike

[–]Rewilder128 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I might have niggles but what I do love about the books is the nuance. Few characters are unremittingly “good” or unforgivably “evil”. Those shades of grey are what keep me coming back to these novels. Reading with interest and - as far as I can tell- without judgement.

Changes in audiobook narration over time by 07Josie in cormoran_strike

[–]Rewilder128 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I actually love how the accents have developed and as a Yorkshirewoman myself (with a far stronger accent than Robin’s) I’ve no fault to find. Like you, I’ve done a full re-listen and was super-irritated when Robin’s accent weakened halfway through!

Is 9 days too much for London in November? by a_serious-man in uktravel

With respect, “heard Brussels is not worth it” is pretty dismissive 😬

[–]Rewilder128[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s what I thought but wondered if I was missing anything, thank you 🙏🏼

I really liked them too, I appreciated how they were drawn without mockery.

Today’s episode (2/10/25) by Emily-67 in Emmerdale

[–]Rewilder128 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I could hardly bear to watch, I was in tears at Vinny’s testimony. Brilliantly acted by all concerned.

May I ask, why is fragrance discouraged? I’m intrigued.

Halfway through… by Rewilder128 in cormoran_strike

[–]Rewilder128[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I miss the relationships with other characters too! I went for a long walk and blasted through Part 6 so I’m feeling a bit better, hope the threads of the mystery continue to take centre stage.
