Modern day uses of the QL

I have been approached by a journalist writing an article for Computer Shopper.

He was particularly interested to know if anyone is still using their QL for a practical role, rather than just as a hobby/collecting.

I still maintain my business accounts on the QL (Cash Trader) and not too long ago, one of my customers was using a QL to run his accounts and payroll for a bakery business

Does anyone else put their QL to practical use?

I have my QL operating a display in a film set for a retro sci-fi film. I have QemuLator running the other screen, which needs faster updates ;)

It also operates some 2x16 character LCDs through the printer interface on the SuperQBoard.

When it's not doing that, it's being used for developing a block-pushing game I'm working on.
