Macfilos Weekender with John Shingleton
Spotted in Chelsea Market, New York at lunchtime: Two ladies engrossed in their Apple MacBooks. What’s going on here? We’ll never know but I would guess that the lady on the left is either blasting a reply to an email which has annoyed her or more probably she is rushing to finish a presentation for a two o’clock meeting.
But as for her friend on the right, something has really given her a shock. A nasty email or perhaps she has just received a message that Planet Earth is being invaded by Daleks. Looking to her right it seems as if that message has come too late to save her.
Personally I feel that there is only one real explanation for her expression — she has just read Donald Trump’s latest tweet (although Mike keeps telling me to keep off politics on Macfilos)

I can’t begin to guess what the ladies are thinking, but I wouldn’t want to argue with either of them. I love the image – it’s ‘one that I wish I’d taken’.
