I have given my iPad a hot water bottle. And PupperJack is miffed. HE should have the hot water bottle.

Ah, yes, PupperJack, but you don’t stop charging just because you’re too cold! Whereas the iPad does …

No. I’m not going to look to see what the temperature actually is. I am ignoring it. If I knew, I might feel colder than I do.

I did ask Google what to do about an iPad that refuses to charge because it’s all wimpy and cold. And Google told me to bring it indoors.

I told Google it WAS indoors. Oh, how we larfed!

(Don’t worry. I wear fingerless gloves when at my desk. I have a blanket over my knees and more than one jumper on. And I’ll get my hot water bottle back when the iPad has finished with it.)
