yes i have tried various ones on the app store and they are all full of useless shizzt that is not needed.

day.. tap
time.. tap
text...add

You have just described the Google Calendar app as it runs on my phone. Agree the web version isn't great, but app works a treat for me.

^Would agree with google calendar. I use it to plot out my shifts and have it shared with those at home so they can see it on their phones too. I even print it monthly as the boxes are massive, handy for writing extra stuff in

GOTD: My new bike has been delayed, partly due to covid demand, and Brexit parts availability

tried the google calender app (its the first one i tried) and i dont like the way you have to set the time so bloody fiddly.

looks like i'll just have to remember/forget stuff.

My PSA level has gone up sharply after a year of being well within normal, looks like the cancer's trying to rally and more treatment will be needed. B0ll0x (well, prostate, strictly speaking)

My dad's been going through protate cancer treatment for a few years now but it seems to reasonably under control for now. Good job really as he's just survived Covid in time to have a stroke so has other things to occupy his mind...

As horrible as it sounds, I'm glad I don't have the worry about aged parents anymore. To see my mum's deterioration over a year wasn't pleasant.

Hope your Dad is ok Sir Trev.

I bought a paper calendar. I hung it on the wall and write things on it.
