We're also going whale watching (June is humpback whale migration time in SF Bay), visiting Muir Woods/Sausalito across the Bay, avoid Fishermans Wharf, trolley ride, Lombard Street, Golden Gate Park (via Haight-Ashbury), Coit Tower, and whatever else we can fit in during our 4 days there.

Our hotel's just off Union Square, so I am sure we will visit there as well.

Re: What have you just bought?

Sony PlayStation Wireless Stereo Headset 2.0 from Amazon warehouse, so i got it cheaper as the box is damaged but it also has 20% off the final price so it was a bargain.

Re: What have you just bought?

A Amazon Echo Dot.

Having fun saying the following. (I've spoilered the result so it doesn't spoil the result)

"Alexa, are you single?"
Spoiler: 
No I'm attached, to the wall


"Alexa, Goodnight."
Spoiler: 
Goodnight, sweet dreams


plus other funny things.

I prefer the Dot to the Echo, mine's wired to an Anker speaker which is just as good as the Echo's speaker but at a fraction of the cost.

I mainly use mine to voice control my lights (Hue) and to control my TV (Harmony) when I can't find my remote. Other than that not much else other than the odd weather report or to play music. Good fun and excellent value if you get use out of it.

The market butcher says he is close to giving up as most of his potential customers demand "MUTTON HALAL MUTTON!".

And he doesn't allow halal on his van.

So when a friendly old face he remembers turns up he clears his van with loads of good offers.There was sirloin and pork loin at stupid prices too, but we have no freezer space at the moment.
