First, lost iPad.

Should have stayed home.

Oh no, hope you get better soon.

I had a bit of a heath scare the other day. I found myself in hospital on Saturday, but was discharged after a few tests.

I am back at work now (against medical advice). I cancelled my trip this week, but will be flying next Saturday. A week between hospital and flying is about as much 'down time' as I can muster.

Gee, work got you under a knife much?

Wishing you a speedy recovery.

Is work that important?

Interesting that the new AFF mobile app has been reskinned (well, at least for Android anyway).

Not too bad; bit of a shift in the interface.

Not sure about the new "no avatar" avatar - makes everyone without an avatar look like a clown

 

[JohnK]

And the time I should be working feel like falling asleep.

Is it possible to be jetlagged commuting SYD-BNE?

I'm doing the trip (weekly) the other way and have always found daylight saving buggers it all up. No worries outside of DLS

And ads now too?

I got no ads. I am an AFF Gold member so I get no ads on the site; and I thought that consistent with this "no ad" approach, if you want to make full use of the app, you had to be a Silver or Gold member.

I am a gold member.

I notice you get a system notification every time you get quoted too..that'll surely drive some people batty.

You can turn that off, been like that for some time.

First thing I did when I got the new app was check the settings (always like tinkering with the inside of things when I get them), then noticed the Notifications settings and promptly turned them all off (except alert on new PM).

Is it sad that over the last week I have clocked up 4,000 QFF from EDR Rewards?

3 BWS offers 900
1 BigW offer 1000
2 WW offer. 1500
1 20 CPL. 600

It is sad for me, as I am getting no EDR love :cry:

10 hours?!?! :shock:

A lot to catch up!

Yes, surprisingly sober at the end as well, more talking than drinking

Nah half the time was spent remembering names and what had happened. Then the frequent toilet breaks...

The time went by very quickly.

We'd been sharing old photos/videos and collating names via a FB group, so names weren't a problem. Trying to match peoples current appearances with their photos was much more a problem - some people had changed a lot.

The 50 year reunion might shock!

Let's not even think of that milestone just yet. Most of us were mid 20's so a fair number of us should be alive. The Department Heads et al might be pushing up daisies.

I was notified to update today, and the previous app never notified me. Preferred it that way. Well off to the settings I go.

From memory you havn't had a good run recently.
I hope that all is ok for you, our health is perhaps the most important thing we have.

 

[cove]

When it comes to health I would prefer good health rather than money but I am reminded by John Spalvins saying " I've been rich, I've been poor.....rich is better".
Of course John Spalvins was a share market player who lost quite a bit when money was really money.

And ads now too?

I see what you mean now. Opened the app then and got a full screen ad.

I have Plume installed and I also see this kind of ad from time to time when I start the app (usually for some dumb game).

That sucks.... but I blame Tapatalk (and AFF has no real way to turn this off).
