Just more stuff

Lazy start to the day. It was cloudy, bright, and there was a chilly wind.

The morning was spent on various domestic duties, but though boring they have to be done. The Gorse Fox has alway backed up his phone using the iTunes app on his main computer - but this has been fairly infrequent. As both he and the Silver Vixen now use the Health App to keep track of health data he thought it sensible to switch to the iCloud backup option. For the grand sum of £0.79 per month he can store up to 50GB of data - which is more than enough. He set this up for both the Silver Vixen and himself and triggered the first backup. Now it should happen automatically on a regular (daily) basis.

Cousteau-Cub had various admin things to complete including a decision regarding her return flight - the actual flight she had booked has been cancelled so she needs to move to a different time (or maybe day). The choice then becomes Gatwick or Heathrow and how long the various layover would be. She can't actually finalise anything until the agency re-opens on Monday (in Thailand).

We raided Sainsbury's again. There were several bits that the Gorse Fox wanted and Cousteau-Cub made the most of the time to look through the clothing section.

The nice man from Amazon turned up mid-afternoon. We have ordered a blood pressure monitor. Not that either of us has any concerns regarding blood pressure - but it's another data point that we can measure and monitor over time. The little unit is busy charging at the moment.
