| Gray day in St Ives, Cambs in 2016 |
A bitty day, a gray start to the week. Managed to get another post onto the Caldecote Local History Group site, about the school sports day, 1964. I was also able to add an extension to the WordPress twenty eleven theme site, to get the sidebar widget showing the archive of posts on an individual post page. Thanks heavens for Google and YouTube tutorials.
We just had a stream of phone calls that interrupted concentration. However, when Ulli called as part of our weekly update of dentistry, baking, photography and websites, I was able to share my frustration with a particular website problem. For an hour we shared screens on Skype, trying to find a combination of HTML5 and CSS that would allow me to have a responsive page with, a scroll-able larger image, centred in a smaller frame - without success! But a problem shared is frustration halved.
To top it all, had a migraine begin late afternoon. took tablets early but ratty for a couple of hours.
President Trump's executive order on extreme screening continues to raise increasing demonstrations and ripples politically as the ramifications spread across the globe. Today, more than one and a half million Britons voted on an online petition against POTUS making a state visit to the UK. Half a million voted for him to come in a separate petition. He must be laughing at the hornets nest he's initiated.
PM May met with the devolved government leaders in Cardiff for talks on Brexit; Wales and Scotland want to retain full access to the European market. The PM went on to Ireland to promise that there would be a seamless border between the North and South. It looks like an impossible task of squaring the circle.
Trump has fired the acting Attorney General Sally Yates for refusing to support his executive order and appointed Dana Boente in her place just now (about 2am). Off to bed as more news and comment ready by morning.
