Are you on the same meds as @networkn?

Nope. But it's really hard to take her seriously. Let's be clear, she is single and not a mother.

If she only had one, it would be a monometer. Buh-dam tish.

I think unimeter would be more appropriate, as mono comes from Greek and meter from Latin.

I am (very) slowly working my way through the estate of someone who was involved with technical education and left a lot of resources behind. Unfortunately, most of it is very old but over time I will be drip-feeding some here on Geekzone. If anyone is interested in BBC Acorn-era computers, let me know!

Seriously tempting, but space is lacking :(

I still have the original user guide for the game Elite. I wasn't much good at it, but my brother loved that game.

Likes of Aliexpress sending me spam saying things like "376 people are buying this now"

WHO CARES, because I don't , in fact it puts me off.

Same with online stores that pop-up messages like 'Dorothy from Twizel has just bought some haemorrhoid cream".

I was recently in the market for an e-scooter and any site with those pop-ups got ruled out straight away.

Did Eric Clapton really think she looked wonderful...or was it after the 15th outfit she tried on and he just wanted to get to the party and get a drink?

What do you want? They are just ordinary little digital consumer devices with the usual scales. Nothing fancy but they work well enough for most use cases. Three are branded Dick Smith. Three are Uni-T (?). The rest I am keeping. If you want them come and collect or send a courier bag.
