We’ve hit the end of another week, and as the night dawns in, and me starting an iced americano late into the evening, it’s time for Last Week at Economy Class and Beyond.

Salmon skies – New Street, Birmingham
It’s been another one of those weeks, as we approach the end of life for Windows 10. And I’ve seen more new laptops in my life than I could imagine, as well as old laptops that have been through multiple hells.
In all seriousness, if you’re running Windows 10 at home, have you worked out what you are doing after the end of support hits on Tuesday, the 14th?
No?
Then stop reading this article and read my guide for Windows 10 users instead.
Onto your regular schedule programming…

Next Week
After an awful few weeks, I think there might be a seat on an airplane waiting for me to jet out of the country and take some time away from the office
We’ll see. Sickness, combined with a demanding work schedule, has taken a lot out of me over the past few weeks and being curled up in bed seems a better option… but we’ll see.
On top of that, I might get some time for some writing too. So until next week, Happy Landings!
Now, where is my suitcase?
