Things that make you go, Errr?

 The Gorse Fox was up before 7:00 as Ellie was due to be dropped off soon after. We went through the standard procedures and the Gorse Fox walked her to the school. We then had the usual Thursday delivery from Ocado and the top-up shop at Sainsbury's.

During the morning, the Gorse Fox received a message from Trevor. "How can I back up a conversation from Messages on the iPhone?" The Gorse Fox immediately thought it should be simple and set about trying it on his own iPhone. Well, it isn't simple. This falls under the category of "things that make you go Errr". If you have an Apple infrastructure then the messages can be captured on a MacBook or iMac without any effort. If you don't and rely on Windows, it isn't so easy. In fact, you need to install an app and use that to capture your Messages conversations and then save them as a PDF, CSV, or print them. These apps are fairly expensive unless this is something you wish to do on a regular basis. The Gorse Fox has provided Trevor with the information and now we wait to see what he will choose.

The Gorse Fox picked Ellie up after school and took her home. The Silver Vixen then helped her with her Geography homework while the Gorse Fox prepared "Grandpa's Curry" for dinner. Urban-Cub has just been along to collect her, but we will see her again just after 7:00 tomorrow morning.
