Tech isn’t always reliable. Or is it just me?

With a number of trips coming up in the next few months (Greece, France and England) I’ve been getting confused, perhaps because I didn’t book them in the order in which they will happen. So I checked the diary on my phone to which flights and hotel bookings are automatically added. And the diary got it wrong. The diary has me flying to the Isle of Man instead of Manchester in July. Why on earth would I want to go there? I checked with the airline and all is correct at their end. As far as they know I’m going to Manchester and they don’t fly from Belfast to the Isle of Man anyway. The hotel books too were a bit of a jumble - apparently I’ll be staying in both Dublin and Rennes on 11th June. So I’ve written it all down on pen and paper and that’s what I’ll consult when consultation is required. The cat in the photo is just that - a cat. It sits motionless and flowery on a shelf on our garden fence and lights up when it’s dark.

I'm a paper and pen person for a lot of things, especially lists of things to do. That cat is adorable.

I wish I could travel. So much I'd enjoy seeing. Glad the airline has everything listed correctly. Cute cat and lighting idea.

The cat is cute. I only trust pen and paper to be sure of what I do, I do not trust a lot my computer and NOT at all my smartphone.

That cat is very cute. It's difficult to go past pen and paper sometimes.
