A few weeks ago, I sent my 1985 Swiss Army Knife back to Victorinox for a broken blade replacement.
It came back today, fully repaired, cleaned, polished, lubricated and in a new box.
Total cost: £10 + return postage.
They sent the knife back with an invoice. I didn't have to pay a penny before the job was done.
A product that's been out of production for almost 40 years, repaired at very little cost by the original manufacturer.
I'm stunned. Happy, impressed, grateful and stunned.

The music player list is very large and there are as many music players out there. Some better than others, each of them falling into categories for listenerAccessible Android
it's been 9 months since I started my new job. my most used keystrokes are now
alt+shift+up or down to move to an unread slack channel,
CTRL+shift+4 in slack to see what I've marked for later
And ctrl+. in outlook to see when my next appointment is.
it's very different to teaching, working in digital accessibility. I miss the students coming through my door with problems technological and questions most personal, and the colleagues happy to learn new things and see just how capable blindness can make someone.
But I am part of a solid, supportive team, have a wonderful manager who interacts with me more than once a half term and company leadership seem to care about accessibility. all good wins.

Was mir an #Thüringen gefällt?
Seit 2019 ist der #Weltkindertag in Thüringen gesetzlicher Feiertag.
Meines Wissens gibt es kein anderes Bundesland, dass #Kinder in dieser Weise wertschätzt.
Die CDU stimmte übrigens gegen die Enführung.
