Was thinking about getting the S21 this year but kind if annoyed that Samsung took out the SD card support and no head phone jack. In someways it seems like a down grade. I agree but that's the trend in phones these days. Helps make them slimmer and trimmer. I get the headphone jack as wireless ear buds do away with wires. I don't get the SD card slot. I guess a push to keep things on the cloud? At least most phones come with a ton of storage. Reviews of the S21 have been positive so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reviews of the S21 have been positive so far. I, too, understand the head phone jack and I use Samsung Buds live, which I really like, with my s8. But I'd much rather have my data in my phone than somewhere out in the cloud and have to pay for that storage. And though I think 256 gb in the s21 is probably plenty of storage I still find myself not wanting to give up the SD card. I have been reading good reviews about the phone and the battery in my s8 is getting a bit weak though I could get it replaced for $60. Decisions, decisions.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But those shiny, new ones are so tempting......😀 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That looks so delicious! I also like the apple cobbler you’d made. I made apple crisp the other day to go with ice cream also. So easy and so good. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both look amazing. I envy you those pork ribs -- pork is not "kusher", so it can only be find in special butcheries, owned by immigrants from Russia. Mainly steaks. Pork ribs -- very very rare. I enjoy them while cruising... 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer using my sd card then the cloud. I have no desire to get caught up in the cloud. I think I have samsung 9 or 10 and I was looking at upgrading just didnt see anything that is making me take the leap. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will say though, I am an equal opportunist, beef or pork ribs are delicious. 😋 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is starting to get warmer this week by London, hopefully for you as well. Edited March 1, 2021 by A&L_Ont Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We watched them cutting ‘keys’ last week in prep for this weekend’s blasting. They had to stop for awhile because the water in the Rideau River is a little low right now and they don’t want to have an ice jam near the dam/falls. They’ll start again in a few days. That’s the Ottawa River and Quebec in the background, we Re looking north from Ottawa. Edited March 1, 2021 by d9704011 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d9704011 Posted March 1, 2021 #9414 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Just to complete the photo journalism, here is a shot of Rideau Falls where the ice will empty into the Ottawa River. The other image shows the local icebreaker (a barge with a backhoe on it) breaking up the ice in The Ottawa River just north of the falls to get things ready for the eventual movement of all the ice and melt water downstream to Montreal. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coralc Posted March 1, 2021 #9415 Share Posted March 1, 2021 That is really interesting! Especially the dynamiting the ice part. Other places have so many unique situations or issues and such amazing solutions or fixes. Thanks for sharing all the photos everyone! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are blessed to live only 4 miles from s beautiful coastline. With UK lockdown we have to stay local so we now go to the beach 4-5 days a week. Hope you like these recent pictures. You even made her hold your ice cream. Perfect sun outfit for beach and/or cruise. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got a nectar mattress which is a huge upgrade for us. We also went from a queen to a king so had to get all new bed frame and bedding. 😇😇😇 Lol a new bed just before you have to move it? I never heard of a nectar bed, heard of purple, I'll have to google it. I'm picky about my mattress. That one hotel i had in florida killed my back. It was hard like a rock. I like soft and cushy.

grapau27 Posted March 1, 2021 #9421 Share Posted March 1, 2021 After a mild weekend it is 32°F this morning. It is sunny but the grass and car windscreen have a white covering of ice. Pauline has her work office set up downstairs for today and tomorrow so I am upstairs watching TV and eating breakfast in bed. I have a few customers to ring after 9am because I am working from home too. These customers are based in the highest UK covid19 infection rate city. Take care and stay safe everyone.
