Ten years ago today, was my grandfather’s funeral (he’d died on October 30). Two years ago tomorrow, my Nan died. Both my grandparents were a HUGE part of my younger life, one of the stable points of my family.
When I visited England for my Nan’s funeral, it was to be the last time I’d visit their home – the only home I’d ever known them live in, a place I could always visit for love and friendship (even more so in the earlier years when my Uncle still lived there too).
So on my last visit, I took lots of photos – and now Apple Memories has helped me create this strongly emotional memory video. For my family perhaps it stirs a similar emotion of love now lost but still with us in memory …
Another JD Power survey
Shortly after I bought my Clubman, I got a couple of new car surveys including one from JD Power – today I got another one, but it really wasn’t about my Clubman this time even though it pretended to be!
The survey started normally, asking about my experiences with the car and moving on to experiences with service at the dealership – but it then moved to asking lots of questions about tires, brands, etc. The paperwork even included an area to encourage me to gather tire data(?)
At least they paid me $1 for my effort!
2015, together
The new Apple Memories feature creates some wonderful memories from my 35,000+ photo collection on my iPad; today it created this “one year together” movie – it’s amazing to realize that some of these memories are only from last year!
