Pleasant driving moment

A year ago I mentioned good memories of driving in Ohio, particular moments that may seem mundane. I also noted how the mechanics of driving can become subconscious if one does enough of it. For my life in Perthshire I do not need to drive as much but I am glad to find that these times can still occur. For example, on my way home tonight on the A90 the sun came out and the B-52's' Love Shack came on the radio: I turned it up and was driving largely automatically; for a time I felt as if life maybe is not so bad after all.

Dominant online vendors

I have mentioned wishing for viable alternatives to sites like Amazon that have a good range of stuff. I am willing to pay a little more for a site that annoys me less. Still, I am not very good at finding them. I sold a couple of things through not-eBay but do not now recall which sites I used. Recently I tried to avoid Amazon by buying through eBay instead and the seller then bought me the item through Amazon as a gift.

It is not as if there are not other fairly wide-ranging vendors out there so much as, at least for the UK-based ones I have looked at in recent years, mostly their websites are rather poor from my point of view. Perhaps they are tailored more toward people wanting to look at photographs from their tablets than to actually read information. At least one success last week was buying a book through AbeBooks.
