Pretty much, spent 20-30 minutes at a time in some of the beds.

Cadbury Creme Egg. The nostalgia got to me. The creamy filling was the same as always but the chocolate shell was just rubbish.

The TV is excellent and watching The Grand Tour in UHD is a great experience (it is surprising how many Amazon Originals are available in UHD).
Just got the new Microsoft Surface Bluetooth Keyboard. It looks a lot like the cabled version of the Mac keybaord, but with dark grey keys. The feel of the keyboard is the best I've found on any of the chicklet style keyboards I've ever experienced. I have 2 Mac keyboards, as well as the Microsoft Designer bluetooth keyboard. The feel is a lot better than any of them. It is a little pricey, but the quality makes the price acceptable.
I was trying to hold out for the Ergonomic version, but I've waited over 3 months for the standard version to appear over here, so I jumped at it. Plus, in my job, I am constantly moving between different machines, so having the ergonomic layout makes it a little awkward, when I have to sit at users machines or configure new machines.

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B001CC ... ref=plSrchIt will have paid for itself in weeks IMO - no creaking board or leaking iron, no fannying about for ages just trying to get the wrinkles out of one item. XXL t shirt done in a minute the first time I used it, jeans done in the same time. Dries damp clothes. Might even make toasties lol.

TBH we have a steam generator iron and have had one for a few years now. Makes a massive difference to ironing. Takes a while to warm up but even a t-shirt can be done in about 15 seconds. I've always been wary of flat presses as unless you get everything right, it will iron new creases into the garment. Would be interesting to see how the steam version avoids this.

I just smooth everything with my hand, press, then roll it over to the next bit. Did an entire collection of t shirts in minutes last night. It's an absolute game changer and I've become something of a promoter!
