Greetings from Morocco.  
There are three big plus points in our view of Morocco; firstly it is culturally completely different from home, the smells, noise atmosphere is Arabic so you feel your are slightly outside your comfort zone which is great, second the French influence means the food is very good, dare I say better than in France and certainly better value. And as only one case of coronavirus has been reported in Morocco as yet this seems to be a safe place to be so another plus point.

Today is my birthday (67 in case your interested). Gill has kindly bought me a new fangled smart phone which I have been playing with. My first mobile phone (in 1986) was the size of a house brick, cost several thousand pounds and the battery lasted 30 minutes maximum. By the time I worked for Ericsson in the mid 90’s I of course had the latest Ericsson phone and also linked it to a Psion organiser (Piss On as the children called it) and could do emails on the move so I was definitely an early adopter of technology. Since then I have moved backwards, partly as I have a great aversion to people who use their mobiles when in company of others (as rude as rude can be in my book) but also because I, like most people if they are honest enough to admit it, have no need to be contactable 24 hours a day.

For my 60th birthday Gill bought me an iPad which although I found a bit frustrating to use it had a great app on which to do my banking and credit card management. Move on seven years and Apple won’t or can’t update the software so it no longer supports banking!
