Inching forward

Very cold over night last night and very chilly first thing. The Gorse Fox was beginning to regret wearing shorts instead of his tracksuit... but he was a brave little soldier and switched the heating on in the car.

The football arena was quiet today. In fact we were the only players as we managed a 5-v-5 game. It was a game of two halves, as the pundits say. In the first half the Gorse Fox's orange bibs built up a 5-1 lead but as the half finished there was an injury to one of their players. We transferred one of our across for the second half and the injured player played in goal for us. We immediately started to concede. In then we fought to 9-9 draw with 3 goals from the Gorse Fox. It really was a very good game with some lovely passing and some very quick and slick moves.

Back home the Silver Vixen has been sorting through her wardrobes and storage boxes to select the clothes she will need for the holiday next month. This give her plenty of time to check on sizes, or replace items.

The Gorse Fox grabbed a shower and a bagel (not at the same time) and then retired to the study. He is inching forward in his "project" to get all of the old G+ posts correctly filed. The problem still lies with broken albums in the G+ data dump. He has, however, found a Wordpress plug-in that may simplify the solution. The problem is the execrable OAuth 2.0 security used by Google (which has so often proved a show stopper for some of the Gorse Fox's intended developments). We seem to have got to the point that the plug-in is authorised - it just won't actually retrieve the photos because Google claims some of the access tokens are missing. Problems has been referred back to the developer.
