Workshop

Go for it 👍 s are cheap enough. Here's a space saving trick for it. When I installed Gisela's PC and Internet etc I put the on a slide out drawer like shelf just under the small desk top. Just shove it back in out of the way when you don't need it 😊 Leaves the desk/bench top uncluttered. 😎

Workshop

Hang it on the wall Martin, with just a remote on the bench. I hate those piddly laptop s, with 5 functions for each key🤔, anyway. I always took a "real" with me on business trips. 😎

Understood Red. Just wondered cos several members have often reported problems uploading pics from phones and tablets. I do have a Samsung mobile (and a vintage Nokia with fold out 😉). BUT; I use them for phoning and SMS only, very occasionally the camera if I don't have my Pentax or Sony with me. I dumped or deactivated all Apps that I never use and don't want. Cheers, Doug 😎
