The photo has nothing to do with the post. It’s another example of street art that I really love.
When Vince needed a new phone which would record various health statistics, he passed his old one on to me. They are Apple phones and now our son has gifted us ‘tags’ which we can attach to car keys/wallets/phones. These tags will be able to tell us where items are if we misplace them.
We had to pick the tags up from a nearby Apple store and the assistant was very helpful, explaining how they worked, etc, etc. To save her manually entering some information, Vince allowed her to get it from his phone. He then paid for another small item. She thanked us and added ‘and thanks for the new TV you’ve just bought me’. She was joking of course but I thought it was pretty funny. We gave the store a very good review as we had no issues at all with picking up the tags and getting information.

i think that murals are really challenging and need to be appreciated.
i don't know how i would feel about these tags. i think it can be helpful, but at the same time - it doesn't seem to safe. maybe i'm just too "paranoid" when it comes to these things and privacy. however, i hope you have good experience with them

@JudyEv that's true. when i put something in a weird place, i write down where it is. but that can't always be of much help, i guess

I love that mural. Magpies are renowned for dive-bombing kids and adults during the nesting season.

Before I opened your post and just saw the thumbnail photo, I thought it was a Christmas creche, and thought, "Why would an Apple store be selling them?" Mr Magoo has nothing on me...

That street art is very unique. Looks like it took a lot of time to do.
Those tags were a good idea from your son. Glad things went smoothly at the apple store.

The guy who did this picture has painted murals all over the world but he comes from this region.
