@merket @LauraCatPJs Key word there is “was”. Loved Wunderlist and used all the time. Tolerate MSFT To Do because I need a decent Task list Skype WAS also great but quickly went down hill. This is a terrible idea for TikTok but great for someone building a competitor

@AlboMP & @ScottMorrisonMP ... why can’t you go digital? The rest of the world is working from home. Why can’t you? I’m sure ZOOM or SKYPE or FACEBOOK would be happy to help. And there’s the @abcnews service you can take over too. Transparency is vital

Mostly winning at Wednesday. Have just completed a laptop update and it hasn’t broken. Still can’t get in to Skype, but the world will keep turning despite a lack of inane IMs from me.

I've waited since 10 june for first available legal video link with a client in wandsworth. Told just now (afternoon before said visit) that he's been moved to Brixton. Only told as WE called them to chase the missing Skype link. The whole system is broken and disjointed.
