Been to Reading twice this week and that's enough for a while, thank you.

Much have you to learn, young Padwan. 'Tis a cornucopia of proper boozers and kebab joints (your regular Friday night is kebab night reminder there).

Puts me in mind of the Viz Skegness t-shirt.

My son went to a concert in Leeds on Thursday night. " Dad? Yes son? Does anyone in Leeds wash? Err why? Everyone around me smelled... Doesn't happen at a concert in Manchester.... "

The simple answer to that would be to ask in which direction the prevailing wind was blowing ? I always found it odd the poor burghers of Sheffield got stuck up at Lodge Moor to recover, it would certainly blow the cobwebs away.

Two months with this LG Android thing and I'm ready to donate it to whichever family member will take it away. I no longer care what an iPhone costs, nor whether it has a headphone socket. I just want an interface I can use - and autocorrect that doesn't reinstate my mistakes after I've corrected them.
At least it didn't cost me £600 to find out. The hardware is excellent but the software verges on unusable. It will suit someone but it's not for me.

I'm sure you'll enjoy renewing your acquaintance with such software perfection as iTunes in due course.

Seldom use iTunes these days. The CDs I want ripped are already installed on the ancient iPods I use for the car and the gym. Everything else I can get with Deezer, which the i3 will even control direct from the console - provided it's on an iPhone.

Of course I could say "told you so" but that would be mean spirited I suppose. 🤐

I had a variety of conflicting advice to choose from. Boy1 here was adamant I'd enjoy it, and he's not generally a mug. Nor, though, is he a nine-year iPhone veteran. I'm not a trick-resistant old dog - but the new trick does have to be worth learning.

Androids are for the "others" you know. Bit like Morrisons if you see what I mean? 😉

You were continuing to use an iPhone and decided to learn to use an Android at the same time. Doomed to failure, I think. I'd certainly have thrown one or other out of the window.
For most people there is little material functionality difference between Android and iOS, it is pretty much a case of which interface you prefer, and which you are used to. And, like switching between manual and automatic, or learning the width of a new car when parking, the older chap can struggle with change.
As it happens I prefer the Android, and am rewarded with a greater range of phones covering a greater range of pockets.
