I bumped my head on the ground (slipped when cycling) but was wearing a helmet. I thought I would get it checked out anyway as a had a minor headache and went to a major (and not cheap) hospital - actually saw a neuro-surgeon. When I told him I had taken a couple of aspirin for the headache he practically had a fit. "Aspirin makes your brain bleed!" he told me and recommended Ginkgo Biloboa (some sort of herbal remedy that has almost no effect whatsoever) to stop the dizziness. His 'brain bleeding' comments gave me pause as to his competence.

Excellent advice! As I need an AI like a hole in the head (which it closely resembles and my dog has a higher IQ 🙂 ) and I don't want to use the "free" options which makes portabilty difficult I have gone for this option. I did it and it seems to have worked.

Office is about the one app software that I actually pay for for my Windows L:aptop. Now I am told the licence fee is going up a whopping 25%. I googled alternatives and saw this on "nerdused.com" - LIFETIME licences of Office for a tenth of the price! how can this be kosher?

I will give you the benefit of the doubt and just assume you misuderstand my post. UK travellers must now make sure that their passport was issued less than 10 years before the date they enter the country when they travel within the EU. https://travelplaces.co.uk/ten-year-uk-passport-rule-explained/ Please check your facts.

After brexit in the Schengen area passport validity is ten years from DATE OF ISSUE so this means the time is effectively lost when applying early
