Is there anything people do on their ipads that they can't just do on their iphones instead? I take both (and a laptop and sometimes a tablet) but generally end up just using the phone.

Unfortunately, for me my phone is not a " smart " phone...old Nokia for texting and calls only! Lol
However, I would imagine most people would be much like yourself.

Come on Dave, you can get an iPhone 5S for around £100 these days  ;)

The other questions is, what is it a terrorist can do on an iPad that they can't do on an iPhone? :o

 For the laptop, we plug it into the back of the television to watch the British T.V. Programmes while we are over for a month.

Supposedly pack more explosives into a lap top or iPad than a phone.

I read my books on my iPad mini and also my newspapers. Much better than the phone.

I take my kindle to read on the beach so I suppose, at a push, I can just take the kindle and my iPhone 6. I won't be risking my IPad in the hold.

Just bought an Amozon Firestick for the to Jacqui. £52 on eBay with Kodi and Mobdro installed. Can get all tV with that home and abroad.

We still get home before the Postcards.   I also think it is nice to be able to check on the family at home, when on holiday.
When I was a child and  went abroad with my Mum and Dad we had no way of getting in touch with my Nan, she did not have a phone and my Mum was always so glad to get home and see her Mother was O.K.
So, technology is not so bad and anyone who says it is, I would ask them... Don't you use it??
