Drawing: Possible causes of your problems. I've been appalled at the scenes we've witnessed over the last few days. It's utterly unacceptable that people should have to live in fear because of the colour of their skin.
[Polite comments only, please.]

Recovering from Covid, and yes, taking things slowly. This drawing is for those for whom recovery is taking / has taken rather longer.

New cartoon: Please use the cycle path.

Technical Q.
1. In Mac Mail, what is the difference between a Gmail account with a 'G' and one with an '@' (see below)?
2. I have an active Gmail account, which is one of the 'G' ones, and a deactivated version of same address which is one of the '@' ones. I've had problems for months sending email, as it tries to use the '@' account, not the 'G' one, with resulting error messages. Causes me huge stress, and (literally) days of work time. Any ideas?
