I have a wireless connect Wi-Fi. signal is good in the sitting room where the first router is connected via cat5 to the external dish. I have a second router ( cat 5 and power supply, identical to the first one) in the office which is too far away from no.1 and can't pick it up. I can't get them to talk to each other. running a cable won't work as I can't access the roof voids. any ideas?!! I've gone on line and teide working in the addresses but it didn't work.

Due to budget cuts all they get is a can of fanta and a hand shandy. Coke and hookers are now out of the budget.

There's Fanta? nobody mentioned Fanta!

I'd say it's more like a glass of diluted miwadi and a photo of a cow's arse.

Thanks for the good wishes. There's no escape now although theirs no one more amazed and equally disturbed at the revelation than myself.

It was your huge level of disturbance that we found strangely alluring Albert

AND THE WINNER IS.... White Clover, with a record breaking time of (at least) 7 hours.

Yes, the mods are very glad to welcome emaherx and Albert Johnson to the team.

It's been a slightly fraught trip for them but they're finally into the inner sanctum.

Is there a prize? Do I get the same perks as the mods?!!

You get to shake the can of Fanta before giving it to the newly appointed to open;) Be nice now for a couple of weeks at least.

Reminds me of The Christmas Toy Show when Tubridy asked the kid what she liked to drink, to which she replied Fanta. He then proceeded to pour himself an entire bottle for himself. Dont think she was happy

Btw does mean those of us in the galley - have to row twice as much with the extra mods and all that

The information super highway is fairly well choked up this morning with all the students logging on. It's nearly as bad as traffic in a small town with 3 schools beside each other at 5 mins to 9 on a Monday morning.:eek:

First class for youngest lad was a no show by the teacher. You'd think he'd send an email to say it wasn't going to be on

That’s poor form.
Our 6th class are working off ore recorded video lessons. I thought it was a bit of a cop out but it allows flexibility. 12YO currently down mucking out stables and feeding chickens. She can do schoolwork when she has that done.

Derelict stone shed backing onto one in use. Frost knocked a section which of course damaged the shed in use.

Am rubbish with stonework but when weather improves it will need patching and pointing.

Maybe his Internet went out or something like that.
All the oldest lads teachers bar one made contact yesterday with him and a few gave half hour classes. He is not short of schoolwork after the day anyhow!
The younger lad has seesaw on the go, interesting enough he wasn't grasping a few bits yesterday that the parents were trying to do in a book but he could pick it up from the video online and the little computer games to help learning way easier. He is mad for computers and it must just come handier to him that way

I'm not great either, which is a pity seems as we have so many of the things all around us. I reckon the slower the better, plenty of looking at what will fit nice and always make it flat for the lad going on top.

All of the courses I've done, and am doing offer recordings which I think is great. One can rewind and replay is something is missed or unclear. Some, even some quite expensive ones (well up in the '000's) work exclusively off recordings, which you offer feedback and questions to mentors after watching within a certain time frame.

LC girl did Easter grinds last year with a private Dublin college, they were doing a special 5 for 1 offer at the time so 5 subjects for €120 covering half of the curriculum.

They provided hard amd soft copy of the notes, plus an online class. I got some screen grab software and recorded the classes and it’s a great his, she still watches them.

I'd recommend this book on traditional stone buildings and repair by Patrick McAfee

He also did one stone walls which is very good.

Why not ??

In fundamentally disagree with allowing posters to start a threads using “only x can post” next they will have a traveller bashing thread started with the comment “no travellers or balanced views allowed”

It’s an open forum, I felt I had something to contribute amd I did, if they are not ready for my opinion (which was fair and balanced) they need to grow a pair amd get over their insecurities.

If they want to talk in secret, let them go get an secret forum somewhere, but that would just give the impression of weakness amd embarrassment at what they have to talk about.

They need to grow up and be able to discuss their position with those they would so easily demonise without a second thought.

But you know well they won't grow up, and they will still demonize us. I totally agree with what you said by the way, but arguing with people like that is the equivalent of banging your head against a wall. I was just questioning if it's really worth the effort.

Bit like beef farming, hardly worth the effort but it’s what we do.

It’s a massive group brain fart by veganism to think that more vegan products in shops equates to an awakening of society to the riotous path.

What’s happening is that conglomerates have realised that there is a section of society that will eat compressed wood shavings if it’s packaged as vegan and they are rushing to milk the market for every easy euro it can get.

All best public health advice across the planet agree on one thing. Eat less processed foods - yet they can’t see that all that is being offered is more and more hyper processed “food” with more and more suspect ingredients. It’s a health crisis in a box, but because it fits the narrative they are heralding it as some sort of dawn of a new civilisation.

producing relatively square and aesthetically appealing walls from the most irregular shaped objects is nothing short of witchcraft!

Having said that, thanks for the link I could do with dabbling in these black arts too.

Glad you brought that up.

Yesterday a comment appeared on the forums tab which made bs claims from the CEO of Impossible Foods that animal agriculture was solely responsible for the loss of diversity globally.

I replied on topic, made no nasty remarks - referred to the CEO of that company etc and for that got banned.

Meanwhile the usual coterie of posters responsible for 99% of the personal abuse and general attacks on farmers and farming and who posted abuse on Buford, farmers in general and myself in the same thread got a free pass, albeit posts removed. But did they get infracted? Did they fuk.

Just two months ago Panch started a helpdesk thread on these issues and where the Admin of Boards finaly acknowledged that posters farmers or otherwise - had an open right of reply to farming / agriculture related topics on that forum. Looks like that's not been honoured.

Patsy was not wrong.

Still waiting for that Feedback thread we were promised....

Very sad stories on the Indo today of children from orphanages farmed out to farmers, it's unbelieveable that the neighbours and teachers of these children allowed the savagery to go on.

I’ll be pre recording my lessons and uploading them- a colleague in my dept, live taught today and the internet couldn’t drive the PowerPoint through zoom.

I’ll have work assigned that they can print. I’ve also offered to post notes to those that can’t access online.

A few schools around are doing a full tt of online lessons and the children are struggling. It takes a lot of energy to look at a screen all day.
