The news that two-thirds of parents struggle to use technology and rely on their teenage children to sort them out doesn’t surprise me in the least. With two IT whizzkids in the house I’ve never bothered to get my head round how to sync my phone with my computer or download the latest Laura Marling [...]

But mostly, I am kicking back on the sofa with a glass of wine and watching what everyone else is getting up to and I have to say, some days I log on and feel like I have walked right into an episode of Jeremy Kyle! Just kidding, I love FB and I love you [...]

In yesterday’s post I mentioned the state of Reece’s handwriting and this particular reader said he’d heard schools were going to start phasing out the teaching of cursive (joined up) handwriting because, in the digital age, it’s becoming redundant. Can you believe that? I’m not really [...]
A paperless system is the natural choice for anyone who – like me – is wedded to their laptop. As Mystie Winckler – the pioneer in digital home management – points out “If you have a smartphone, a tablet, or a laptop, why not use them to their full potential? Why multiply tools with heavy, [...]

I’m mystified by the popularity of satnavs. For a start I don’t want to be bossed about by an annoying voice when I’m driving – and quite apart from that, satnavs aren’t all that they are cracked up to be. Lorries are always getting stuck in tight lanes, while car drivers have ended up on [...]
The iGuy is made with super strong EVA foam, which makes him bendable, whackable, droppable, squishable and even huggable! Georgie has been informed that if she wants to play with Daddy’s iPad (which she prefers to my larger one, score!), then she has to have it put in the iGuy case. She now fetches the [...]
