Nice bright start to the day but it did cloud over and the temperature dropped a bit. The Silver Vixen wasn't feeling it today, so decided that Pilates would be a step too far and stayed at home.
The Gorse Fox headed off for football as usual. The roadworks that delayed his trip yesterday were unlikely to be finished, so he took a slightly longer route. This proved to be a good choice as he arrived earlier than usual - the A29 and A27 were spectacularly clear today.
Football looked as if it was going to be a close run thing. The sides looked pretty even, but in the end the yellows ran out 3-1 winners. Unfortunately the Gorse Fox was on the orange team. The game was marred by some agricultural tackles from the usual suspects and childish tantrums (and storming off the pitch) from another. It seems to me that some people wish to play the game by their own rules. They don't like the official rules, and argue about every decision that goes against them when they stray into their own rule book. The Gorse Fox has a very simple view of this - if you are not willing to play to the official rules - then don't play; we can live without you!
Back home, the Gorse Fox was preparing lunch when the phone rang. It was the Police responding to yesterday's incident. We had a long chat and the Gorse Fox helped all he could. It seems bizarre that the technology the Police have a their disposal won't accept video by email, can't accept it on a USB stick or SD card, and expects it to be submitted on a CD! Who still has computers old enough to read and write CDs? The Gorse Fox suggested he put it in a shared folder in the Cloud which they could access. That seemed to satisfy them, but in the end they saw the copy that was on Facebook and decided that would do.
