Even airship carriers sare not entirely made up, but real experiments in that direction did not come very far.

Wish me luck, I have a meeting at the bank later this morning and if all goes well I will be out of debt.
I'm so excited I can barely put on my ski mask!

Don't go for peanuts. Look up one topic and try air piracy. That#s where the money is.

Thats actually rule 2. Rule 1 is don't get caught.

Be sure to remember that spelling, grammar, and penmanship are very important. You don't want the teller to think you have a "gub".

And of course manners...always say please.

Any suggestions of a "lightish" laptop which I intend some simple VS code programming over holiday break.
Will get low useage through out the year.
Screen size helpful, resolution more then physical. So many £300 laptops but 720p resolution.
Been using Mac Book Pro 2011 since 2011. Getting slow. Resolution getting a bit nagging.
Also considering replacing the aging tablet, so maybe kill two with one by spending on something that folds up for bed tablet viewing?
thoughts?

I'm running a 13" HP Spectre x360 for exactly what you described, currently about a year old. It was light to travel internationally with and I've had no problems coding on it. I even use it in tablet mode with a stylus for taking notes in meetings since my recall is better with handwritten notes and then I don't have to retype them afterwards for storage!
Does most everything I need it to without complaining. Only problem I've found is that it doesn't handle newer games all that well due to the Intel video card. Guessing if I picked up an eGPU and ran it through that I'd see much better results though.

Quick google, price made me skip a beat, but I think slowly rationalising replacing tablet as well, which this looks like if folds nice.

I had the same reaction to the list price, fortunately I snagged it during a sale which made it much more reasonable.
It does fold well and stays in whatever spot I select, be it laptop, tablet, or A frame for display. There is a slight gap due to the chassis shape when you go full tablet mode. Never had a problem though since it seems to handle being fully folded just fine and the gap comes back after you release any pressure.

My main complaint with mine is the 'feel' of the keyboard when using it as a tablet. just feels odd in my hands, even though the keyboard is inactive, I dislike the feel of the keys in table mode.
A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, navigate a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly.

I'll admit that at first I felt the same way, and you do bring up a valid point. As recently as yesterday I've bumped keys while converting it to tablet mode but but before it was 100% flipped so a few errant keystrokes have occurred.

It was a blast! It rained most of Thursday so didn't venture too far from the hotel but Friday was mostly clear skies and sunny so I more than made up for it. Friend of mine who lives there recommended visiting Nyhavn, Christiana, and Tivoli so I did all three!
Getting back to Stockholm was an adventure, I didn't realize that my train left from a different station and the local ticket machines wouldn't accept any of my cards. Made it with about 5 minutes to spare.
