X ( or Twitter ) Part 2

Aldous

It looks like the Application Programme Interface ( or API ) on X and the X feed app for my blog will only allow 1 update per week for my X feed. I could buy the X feed app for the blog which should give me up to 12 updates a day, but I do not really want to spend any money on stuff like that at the moment.

Food is a bigger priority.

So I will just leave it as is for now. And maybe see if there is a work around for the problem. Of course I could just use a different app or X equivalent. That’s a job for this weekend.

The rest of the site seems to be working okay though.

Addendum ( 12 hours later ): X just updated my post. Looks like it is just weekly updates only.

DIY

Aldous

I have only really done some basic DIY in my little flat. This week though I expanded my horizons and dismantled my built in fridge/freezer and moved it to a different wall. It backs on to the wall in my bedroom and I am tired of hearing it rumble on at night. Call me crazy but I think an uninterrupted nights sleep is kind of important …..

At least temporarily until I acquire a new one. A smaller and hopefully quieter fridge/freezer.

Not an easy job and I managed to fall down the stairs while taking out the doors and surrounding woodwork. Which was surprisingly heavy. I’m just glad I did not cause any major damage. To the stairs and myself. Though I have banged my knee again. Amazing how much damage that knee has had over the years.

Now I have to go out and get something to fill in the hole in the wood flooring. And weirdly a hole in the wall. Not sure why that is there. And then repaint everything.

iPad post

Aldous

Just downloaded WordPress app for iPad to see how it works. Oddly it seems to want to be connected to another app. Not sure what’s going there. Will try and look into that later.

Though not much later as it is nearly 2 AM.

Also tried to add another X ( tweet ) but it has not shown up.

Oh well ….. Apparently it might do so in a week or two.
