Next Forum Drinks - Friday 12th October at the George Canning


Recommended Posts

The world seems to be turning excesively widdershins today, but I'm sure it'll calm down eventually.


Lovely to see everyone, and mucho aplodjoth if I spouted far too much nonsense last night.

Once again I can but echo Sean's words at how good it was to see some new faces and I had such a blimmin' good time.

GG you're lovely and I really hope it all works out, in fact it will, I can feel it in my waters ;), and yes, our Ems is a superstar.


Right, snags and The Wire series 2 for me. Anyone up for the rugger tonight?

Thanks for last night folks but?


Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow! My head really hurts! Why would the gods do this to me? All I did was have fun and drink too much.


Oh cruel world. At least thou hast brought forth ibuprofen and bacon sarnies from thy bounty.


hmm bounty?

Excellent to see everbody old and new. Personally I am still reelng from Bagpuss' revelation concerning her feelings towards ginger hair :))


There was much talk (from me?) about meeting at the CPT for the rugby in that its in ED and the EDT wll be rammed full of people and Hoopers is a little off the beaten track for many.


What do folks think? I'll go anywhere, given half the chance.


Also up for Boothby Graffo at the Hob tomorrow.


Sorry I disappeared at 1 - saw a bus come hurtling around the corner and my mind said "bed".

Awwwwww Mike I think I was expecting you to be greek cos of your surname... & was a little shocked that you were not dark haired & olive skinned but ... well how could you possibly be offended or upset with Bagpuss for long??

Another great night. Met a nice bunch of new people & as always ran out of time to talk to everyone.


As for the rugby, I had a conversation with Mike (possibly more than once!) about it & we were thinking CPT. Any other suggestions?

What time does the Rugby kick off? You poor loves with your hangovers, see coming into work has its advantages.


Hey Bagpuss I did a recci on the school & all becomes clear now, HOW close are you??? We will have to "do lunch".


May see some of you later if you are not all still recovering.?


Cheers GG

    • I've heard of one called Fox Angels perhaps google them?
    • Whilst walking my dog in Peckham Rye Park this morning, we noticed a fox in the undergrowth near to the park entrance at Colyton Road and Forest Hill Road.  It was dragging its left rear leg and brush along the floor. I have looked online for a local rescue centre but can't find one.  Does anyone know of a local wildlife rescue centre?  There seem to be a couple for birds but no other form of wildlife. Thank you.
    • Meanwhile, I'm withdrawing my previous high appreciation.  Firstly there were my attempts three days ago to provide the detailed information they needed,  to enable the technical team to check a specific post in their log  and see the server responses.  I found myself as if going round in circles.   The bot eventually told me that it was Support I should be sending it to, rather than 'here in chat'.  I'd been following the links to the numbered Ticket throughout and had not even been aware I was in a different part of the building.   It was beginning to feel as if I was being gaslighted so I just gave up, and went off to educate myself on the latest requirements the biggies such as Gmail require in ther DNS security information.  I've long had an SPF record, and it's now clear that I should be ready to install at least a DMARC, and preferably a DKIM one too, in my domain's DNS record.  I'd not noticed any recent problem before the migration, so had assumed (but haven't yet checked) that Plusnet have been inserting their own secure identity confirmation items, for known subscribers like me who use their mail relay to send email as from their personal domain.   Anyway, I've just  had another try at giving the bot the required information, and that seems to have succeeded, so I'll see wait to see what the Greenby techs say about it all. On top of that, yesterday evening I was searching for a really important email which I had to reply to,  which I'd purposely put in a separate Plusnet webmail folder.  I found that all my added folders there were empty, just as in Vladi's reports, which I'm immensely glad  of.  Knowledge of his experience and a fairly quick and successful resort  to his strategy worked for me too and helped ratchet down my alarm, which was present even despite the knowledge that somewhere I should be able to find another copy of the file. It could have been otherwise.  A system fault like that, unreported and left uncorrected, could potentially contribute to doing people real harm.  I remember two years ago, a single instant of deep fear, on hearing something on the radio about the dire legal effect that could result from an inaction similar to one of my own, that was immediately followed by a slight oddity in my hearing in one ear.  I connected the two and measured my BP for a period shortly after.  That more or less confirmed that there'd been a marked jag in my BP, occasioned by the moment of fear, that gradually declined.   Two or three days later I woke up with a severe  hearing loss in that ear.  That led to a referral to an ENT consultant, but by the time that arrived the loss had thankfully been more or less reversed.
