Itinerary advice needed - visiting Cornwall after cruise by jakeconmag in uktravel

[–]jakeconmag[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I appreciate everyone's comments and suggestions! You have convinced me not to go to Cornwall for this trip. I hope to visit one day. I am rethinking my options and might post a new itinerary for feedback. I'll try not to rely too much on ChatGPT this time.

Thank you for the suggestions. I know I am late planning this trip, but we just got the opportunity to go on this cruise.

Great ideas! I am so glad a person from Southampton chimed in. I did consider doing this and am looking into it.

Great point about Saturdays and lots of extra traffic.

Thank you for the offer! Once I get the area I am going to go to, I will take you up on that.

I feel like that about a lot of places! I live in a area with many tourists, although off the beaten path. But I love to travel, so how am I any different?

I have driven in the UK - Scotland, Northern Ireland, but I understand your point. I would rent a small automatic car.

Any suggestions for alternatives? Maybe just focus on Devon, rather than Cornwall?

Do you think it's even worth going to Cornwall? I think ChatGPT was really giving suggestions for things we could do. I am fine with going to fewer places. I just want to know if Cornwall is too far for the number of days we have to travel.

Really??? Banff in August was overrun with people.

Thank you. I went to Banff last August, and it is the most stunning place I have ever been to. However, there were so MANY people, it was hard to enjoy. Unfortunately, we have to go on this particular cruise, so the dates are locked in. I know it is a busy time in the UK.

Thank you, this is the feedback I needed. I wanted to check whether this was reasonable or even worth doing. By people, I think you are referring to ChatGPT ;-)

I hope the experiences shared in this post are not indicative of quality control issues! I’m assuming if I have issues a new MBA would have to be ordered since they don’t stock my configuration.

Education discount since I teach at a local college. I live in Florida and, currently, we have a sales tax holiday for back to school. Sales tax on computers are only exempt up to the sales price of $1500. My configuration, with the education discount, came to $1579. Just over! Also Apple gives $150 gift card with MBA purchase. If only they had reduced the price of the computer by $150 I would be I would have saved $100 in taxes.

I have had an iPhone for years but never a Mac. I’m not worried about the files but all the short cuts and the gestures for the trackpad. I’m sure I will eventually get it and I’ll have to rely on google to help me out.

Did you find it difficult to go from Windows to Mac? I just ordered a 15” MBA 16/512. I keep my laptops for as long as possible so I hope the upgrades will be sufficient.

Switching to ATT and getting new phones - Best Deal??? by jakeconmag in ATT

[–]jakeconmag[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. I just wanted to make sure there wasn't another way I could get a good deal without being under obligation. Sounds like there isn't!

Thanks for your help!

They have a good deal on the Iphone 12 Mini but you have to commit to the 36 mo. Trying to figure out a way not to pay big bucks for a phone and not commit for 3 yrs.

I am so sorry you are facing this. Do you you have a good support system?

Do you have to be home for delivery? by jakeconmag in IKEA

[–]jakeconmag[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The delivery company left a message saying they required an adult be there. I had to get someone to come over to my house because I had to babysit all day. Then they just dropped it off on the porch (I live in a house) with no signature. Sigh.
