MacBook Air showing battery degraded and service required. Also some intermittently flaky keys and not wanting to power on sometimes.
Found a chap who specialises in Macs and MacBooks only 5 mins drive from me.
Called him Thursday, took it in that afternoon. Battery replaced, KB cleaned, all seems to be OK now. £99.

Seems ok that, shame it needed to be done though. How old is your MacBook Air?

It's a 2017 model, but I got it in early 2018.

My car, which I chose because it's a bit more powerful then others in the range, uses a lot of petrol when I drive it faster than necessary. Which seems to be often. And it likes the expensive stuff.
This seems in every way a consequence of my choices and also a first-world problem.

If only someone had pointed out the economy lies to you beforehand!
Oddly mine seems to be getting more economical with mods. By which I mean I've seen 33mpg on my commute a couple of times.

Yeah, although I probably still would have done it anyway, and then still groaned about it later.
