Indeed. It was on my dad's Amstrad 286 running MS-DOS that I really learned to program. My mum's boss had a Mac and I wanted one, so I started building a clone of System 7 in Turbo Pascal. I learned how to write my own mouse driver using interrupts, worked out how to create XOR masks to make mouse cursors display without obliterating the background underneath, and how to switch sections of the background to memory and/or disk so I could make windows moveable and resizeable.

When my dad bought a 386 and Windows 3.1 came out I sort of lost interest.

Of course then they invented the World Wide Web and for several years front end development was entirely made of extreme limitations, and I had the best time ever trying to build the impossible.

The genuine Apple adaptor contains a D/A convertor (the 30 pin interface included analog audio, Lightning doesn't).
I'm guessing the Zeppelin takes an analog feed and doesn't have a built-in D/A. B&W say the Apple one should work.
It's possible that if you got a non-Apple adaptor which doesn't have one.

I recognise Beaulieu.

Oh no not this again. It's the fabled "Dammit Bug".
It's not an Apple bug (unless you count a new browser feature Safari hasn't yet implemented), It's your password manager. https://www.lfgss.com/comments/17048644/

Dammit said "I deleted old unused passwords out of keychain and no more pop up keyboard."

Nope, I bought a Mini instead.
(and a Citroën C5, and a Citroën DS3, and seem to have acquired my father-in-law's Citroën C4 Cactus)

Surely the Panda is bigger than the 595?

But to truly downsize from one of the smallest cars there is? The correct answer is an Austin Mini, an original Fiat 500, or if that is too big a Peel P50. After that you’re looking a roller skates.

And these funny Toyota JPN Taxis that are like half scale versions of London black cabs are taking over from the classic Toyota Crown/Comfort models

Most unexpected spot was a Volvo 262C in Hiroshima, near the Mazda factory.
Mercs were very popular, as were these odd little Toyota estates called either a ProBox or a Succeed depending on spec.

Some nice cars from the streets of Japan.

Mind you I have since gone from an Aston to a new life in France, which is even better.

Having gone from a 986 Boxster S to an Aston DB9 I can only say you are absolutely right.

You will probably find that the hearths sit on a big concrete or stone slab. It can be done but it’s a big messy heavy job requiring an SDS. YouTube as always has some decent examples

That’s a blast from the past. I remember doing a 3 place tag in order to get the game back on track.

Still ride that hipster Cinelli too.

Would rep, etc.

The Eastest East Drinks has ever been?
With @shinkuu_kiss in Nakano, Tokyo.

I used to ride around with no hands all the time, full length of the London's famous Hipster Highway. It builds skills. Skills which you will need when you're out for a ride on your old Raleigh that you got out of the shed, and the headset pinch bolt lets go and you have to get 4 miles home again with no way to keep straight, or steer round bends other than your finely-honed ability to ride no-handed.

My point was that it’s not a rare car, just a rare spec. You may well be able to buy a 2nd hand wing in the right colour from a breaker. Maybe bumper too if those are shared.

Yeah, but it has the same front wing as a 1.6 diesel.

This is always the answer to stupid o’clock departures.

Get the Lizzy line there and stay in an airport hotel.

When are you nicking the bike?

How full is your hard drive? Delete a load of shit.

getting my last crown

Been squashed by a lorry driver.

My bad. I meant Purify. https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/purify-block-ads-and-tracking/id1030156203

I use Purity and set Safari to use that. Seems good enough.
