an increasingly technological age.

1. Post your thing.

2. Post your alternative-and the benefits

3. Post what the fuff you like.

MINE

1. Christmas Tree ? Why ?

2. Project an image on to your wall. No needles. Saves space. Changing display. Dog can't knock it over and you don't have to take it to the tip or the loft.

Why bother traveling to visit relatives?

We've all got zoom now. And when they get annoying you can 'lose your connection'
