I spent the whole day working backwards from https://derrickjknight.com/2022/08/31/graveyard-goats/
on a final push to recover all the pictures to the date of the transfer to my new site, I travelled past that to the 14th. https://derrickjknight.com/2022/08/14/a-tale-of-wasps/
Anyone who wishes to see these or any in between will notice that the first has a header picture and the second does not.
For the first half dozen I was happy to find a suitable header and apply it. Even on these I kept coming across blocks of very faint pictures labelled “Unexpected content – attempt to recover block”. This was straightforward enough but needed to be attempted a block at a time.
As a tester I tried 7th July post:
This is fine. Well it was my birthday.
There must be an answer to this, but I will need to seek one from James Peacock.
This evening we dined on flavoursome barbecue pork spare ribs, boiled new potatoes, tender green beans and peppers, with which Jackie drank Diet Coke and I drank
Passamano Frappato-Syrah 2021 which has a paper label.
Lovely illustration by the gifted Gemma. So nice to have people in your life with such talents!
Thank you very much, Diane
I hope James can recover the remainder because I have a feeling there might be more that haven’t been recovered and may go back further than we thought.
I’m sure there will be, Sue. Those, though, I will just tackle as I find them. I can’t go through them methodically again. Thank you so much for all your help and encouragement
It has been my pleasure to assist, Derrick.

So much work–and so time-consuming!
I went back to your birthday post. What a lovely day you had!
Thank you very much, Merril
You must be relieved that the end of the photo transferring is in sight. What a massive undertaking!
It is, Liz, and I am. I think there will still be missing photos in all the posts I have produced. I won’t work on these so methodically – just when I find them. Thanks very much.
You’re welcome, Derrick. Time to rest from your labors!
Indeed
You are very conscientious.
I’m no good at giving up. Something we have in common. Thanks a lot, Tootlepedal
Happy Birthday again Derrick.π

Thank you so much, Jill
The photo recovery is a lot of work, Derrick. My best to you and Jackie.
Thank you very much from us both, Lavinia
Your experience makes me rather wary of purchasing a site from WordPress for the change-over does not appear to be as seamless as the blurb implies. Having said that, I am delighted to find your posts in the Reader again.
Thank you so much, Anne
You’ve put in a lot of hard and time consuming work! I admire that!
Best of luck with James and his help! I hope it all gets accomplished.
(((HUGS))) and β€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈ to you, Jackie, and the Sweet Little Family! Hope all of you have a good good good good GOOD weekend!!!
Thank you so much from us all, Carolyn X
Keep at it, Derrick, you’ve got them omn the run!
Thanks a lot, John
Lovely reading your earlier posts Derrickπ you no longer have a limit posting your photos?
No – but it will cost Β£40 per month to the new company – money well spent while I can
Thanks very much, Arlene
You have a beautiful family and that painting depicts that.
