Somewhat fancy part of Paris

Luckily there is a sign

Phew, otherwise you were sure to miss it….

Luckily the path got thinner
But even with a constant stream of scooters,
There were less holes in the ground to fall into
= much safer

You know… it’s not lost on me, the irony of a sport that Americans generally turn their noses up at, being the catalyst for unprecedented good behavior by Americans. I could be a fan but I’d need a team in Baltimore. I’m a hometown sports guy.

Note to self.

In future, if I am getting into the dinghy from the swim platform of SAKURA, and i intend (or otherwise) to do a gentle and very elegant backward flip into the sea, then I should zip up the pocket that contains my mobile phone. Phones are heavier than water and when you are upside down, they escape pretty easily.

Now, trying to get into my account to order another phone is impossible, because the only way I can get into my account is to get 2 factor authentication code sent to my phone, which is in 12 meters or water.

Vodafone you fucking suck.

@Giles that probably belongs in random rants. and it obviously sucks.

It was actually originally meant to be just the first paragraph, and was not intended to be a rant.

But I was on the phone to Vodafone whilst I was typing and as a result, it mutated into a rant.

After 3 attempts, I found a CS guy that actually knew what me was talking about, and he came up with a great solution. But it does require me to have a phone that accepts eSIMS. Waddya know? @AdamJ has a spare one on his desk....

BOOM

[goosehd]

@Giles does Paula’s phone not accept eSIMs?

[Giles]

Not going to dick around with her phone. Anything that does not work how she thinks it should ,for the rest of the phones life, will be roundly blamed on me.....
