The Codeface

I was up soon after six. I had slept well, but was wide awake and in need of a coffee. I pottered downstairs with the elegance of a ballet dancer, in bare feet, walking on LEGO bricks. When Jasper had finished laughing at me, he went upstairs to disturb Diane (which I had studiously tried not to do). I worked through the overnight news and decided that there was no specific intervention required from me.

Once we were both up and about, I opened up the MacBook and started to write some code. Bit by bit, I explored the API that gave me access to. data from the new Skoda Elroq.  Some of it was extracted quite easily, but that was data that was easily available anyway. The more complex information proved a challenge. Over the course of the day, I made progress, but the data I really wanted remained elusive. My ultimate objective is to be blessed to extract data into a spreadsheet, allowing me to create various cuts of the data to understand the performance and cost of the EV.

Just after lunch, Di had an appointment at the Opticians at the same time that I had to take Ellie to Angmering for a night out and sleepover with her friend Lily. Zoe took Di to the Optician, and Ellie (on her booster seat) sat in the front of our car with me as we headed across to Lily's. The traffic was dreadful, but we arrived in plenty of time. They are off to Brighton (with Lily's mum) to see K-Pop Superstars (or something like that) at the Brighton Centre.

I arrived home just before Di and made us both a cup of tea. It turns out that she does need stronger glasses and so has a new pair on order and is having new lenses put into some of her old frames. ~

The rest of the afternoon was quiet.
