Raemondo Aug 2024 4:04pm, 30 Aug 2024 12,043 posts	Quote Pin Raemondo I left my multi plugular USB cable in my car in Eindhoven, which will not be much use when I need to charge my phone and headphones once I get to Ireland. One takes USB-C and the other micro-USB, so I will either need to find another multi way one, or buy two separate new cables, ideally from a service station somewhere between Dublin and Virginia. Also my flight is now delayed, meaning I almost certainly won't get to my hotel until after their restaurant stops serving food. So I might be foraging for dinner at said service station, too.
