Write your comments here...When we left a CL this morning I carefully wound the electric cable in loops like I have for years and years and when I arrived at the next stop it took ages to untangle. What did it do in the bag and the intervening 2 hours to manage that? Why does it always do that? Will I never learn?

Another one of life's great mysteries......why can you never plug in a USB plug (for a phone charger, or whatever)  the right way up? Always takes several attempts.

Ian, on every USB plug there is a 'lightening bolt/aerial' symbol if you orient it so you can see it then it will go straight in without fiddling about. The USB socket is oriented to accept the plug in that position

Even though I know this and I look ?. I gett it wrong because I'm holding the device upside down .  Don't think my brain wants to cooperate!! But thankfully it is only ever two attempts.
