Whilst I spend a fair amount of my time overwhelmed by the pace of technological change, I am right this moment charging my phone on an electric bus and I am all for it.

OH is working on the boy’s musical education. We’ve got Revolver on. He’s now wandering the house singing β€œwe all play in blue and tangerine”. My work here is done. #oafc

BIG disclaimer: we- relatively tech savvy Gen X-ers - use a Nest and my parents - reluctant boomer tech users - have Hive. We love Nest’s little things like settings that automatically switch the heating on and off when phones (and therefore you) are in the house. Parents reckon Hive can’t do that.
