Any chance of a little more info, can you post your config files and any error messages you get.

The more information you give the quicker we can get it sorted for you.

I'll def be interested in going, maybe I have something to show. Maybe just taking lunch shifts etc.

So I've had my running career put on hold for 6 months so I thought I'd get around to making a remote control plane. I made a start on it today and printed out the plans and started attaching them to the foam boards. Once I've saved a bi of cash, I'll buy the electronics. m _KW06134.jpg More to come...

Heads up, SWMakers won't be at the science spectacular due to insurance problems....


hohummm

Just a heads up, I ruptured b\my achilies last night and won't be too mobile on Saturday.

6 Weeks in a cast is gonna suck

Bit of a botched printing job, printing another as I type. Will also be adjusting the logo to make it smaller and fit better within the frame.

I'll put it on the list

Thanks, sorted it

I was degding through the email this morning and found and email from the IT team in Perth.

Even if we just visit next year for the experience... I'll put it in the diary.

Decided to give the backyard a cleanup and managed to move the aquaponics along a little. I picked up a couple IBCs recently and decided to add one to the system. It wil make managing the temperature changes and fluctuations in nutrients in the system easier. At the moment I have about 100L in the s...
