Thanks Stuart.

I like driving too, but these days it can be quite stressful and need to have a working memory map of where all of the pot holes are! There is something just so civilised about rail travel, possibly because it is more established than motorised road travel. There is also more freedom to socialise with more people. And with any luck there is a ‘buffet car’ to make the train an almost home from home, to satisfy another of the basic human needs in life.

The Adelaide to Melbourne sounds awesome! Australia has so much scope for amazing long distant journeys, for which one day perhaps I’d like to travel on the Ghan from south to north or vice versa.

With Apple and other brands, it feels like there is an emotional attachment that is bound to the memory of what it was when you first encountered their products. It’s like with people and first impressions that last. That later on when things change that there is almost disbelief and internal unwillingness to accept what has changed. But with all things and feedback, change can happen again for the better.
