  • In the 70s we had a cassette tape kids story about a wizard who lived in a mountain and kept all the winds in a box.

    The story was about someone who went in and retrieved the winds.

    It involved blowing up sections of passageways (the narrator talked of lighting the blue touchpaper), and the wizard woke up and chased the hero.

    He had a walking stick so his steps were reproduced including that, and he was calling, “My wind! Somebody’s stolen my wind!”.

    I think it was probably on the front of a magazine or something. I don’t know if it’s a traditional story or something written for that production but I thought it was brilliant at the time.








  • I use Gboard and have been meaning to find an alternative, so this is a useful thread though it seems the concensus is there aren’t really any.

    What I’d love to do is completely remove any reference to stickers and gifs from the emojis selection but it’s not possible. The emojis button can be removed from the keyboard, maybe it’s time to go back to traditional ASCII.
