Could someone see if Monday 13th is free in the evening, please? If it is free, could you put HRM in from 7 until 1 (or as late as we can easily go)? If there is a film that night, can it be postponed? Everyone seems to want a HRM, and it has to be a Monday really. Do we know who will be KMing that ...

I tried the cafe kiosk computer, and it wanted a username and password to get past 192.168.11.1. Is it supposed to do that?

swithun

Not good. Looks like Ken is in the political wilderness for another 4 years. He had my vote.

swithun

I'll drop off the next Nisbets catalogue I get sent. They are entertaining as well as informative. I'll still have Screwfix to read in the loo.

swithun

I take it you meant T6 L545 for the 6 toilet bins. I've made the order. Do we have to colour code our rubbish now too?

swithun

I've contacted Catalina and Jason about a HRM in June.

swithun

I've created a sym link from bookings to screenprintingbooking.

I think the hall isn't going to use the new system yet, or is it, Chris?

swithun

I only wrote the thing. People in charge of the rooms need to crack the whip. But I've no idea if the screen printing room is ready for rent, or only just about usable.

swithun

It has less sodium than usual. And chlorine too.

swithun

It probably makes sense for the different facilities to have different pages on blog.thforest.org.uk, as the initiation process is different for each facility. From these pages, they can all link to the same booking system, but using different URLs, to future-proof themselves. While they are using t...

swithun

Web dudes - the new fangled room booking system is online at http://theforest.org.uk/cavebooking/ . It has this URL so that links to the old Cave system still work. But it now handles all facilities bookings. Can there be a single URL that all facilities can use, or should there be different URLs po...

I got 15 white bib aprons from Nisbets - cheaper in bulk than Chefskit! They should arrive on Wednesday.

swithun

Nisbets is the other place to find cheap kitchen clobber, and I have an account with them already.

I can get this stuff this evening.

The S-Dawg doesn't have much to cover up, but he does like to get his toque on when baking.

Your wildest dreams will come true.

There isn't a day that goes past when I don't think of nachos and hard rock. Some of the dishes on last year's menu didn't sell so well (i.e. at all). So here are some replacements: The Douchebag A collar poppin' soul patch of Jaegermeister spiked salsa The Fartknocker Marking the return of Beavis a...

Is it repairable? They are expensive, but isn't that partly due to them being made to be repairable?

None of the Magimixes at Nisbets have a commercial warranty either. Is that a factor?

If you want another go at installing Ubuntu, then that is OK. My parents got one of these Acer bad boys (on my recommendation, after I got this one for the office), and they had trouble when they put Ubuntu on it. It was freezing a while after booting - there would be a nasty hard disk noise, and th...

swithun

Can I have the Acer nettop back, if it doesn't have Windows on it? I think this model has a buggy BIOS, which Linux doesn't like.

swithun

On their way.

swithun

Am I the only one who buys stuff around here? I was on holiday, so I've only just seen this.

It should be arriving on Wednesday, with my name on it.

swithun

I think that URL is for a totally bogus Forest Facebook group. The real deal is http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=2504741238, where you can sign up for a ticket to kick it.

swithun

How out of touch am I? When I saw the Dead Kennedys, I thought that Jello Biafra looked pretty young compared to the rest of the band. He'd been replaced too.

swithun

Nice one. I hope you get a chance to button hole the Feargster over his position as running dog apologist for Big Content.

swithun

Thanks, Mike. I forgot about that. Work has been a bastard the last few weeks. Never do a skills audit.

swithun

You mean, like http://www.theforest.org.uk/2011-01menu_plain.pdf?

I'm seeing felafel a lot these days. I think it is how the cool kids transliterate. I'm still a falafel guy though. And so is my spell checker. But who knows?

swithun

Well done on getting some locally made films. It is part of our remit, but not happened very often.

swithun

The Guardian had a series of blog posts related to the Forest, and there were some entertaining, depressing and plain stone cold bat shit crazy comments posted by one or two people who would probably be better off in Broadmoor than the ECA.

Maybe that is what you're looking for.

swithun

It is the forum that dies harder than Bruce Willis. There aren't that many posts or topics, compared to other fora. But looking at the topics, they wouldn't easily fit into one or even many other fora. Volunteering is an important part of the Forest. It is more specific than what goes in the People'...

Hot damn. Catalina served me the best burrito I've had in a long time last night. It was the complete package. Good salads. None of this beetroot and pumpkin seed super food crap. Fucking potato and coleslaw and pasta salads and frisée green salad. And the size of the burrito. There are viable foetu...

The braille version looks good. Nice work.

A readable menu is something we haven't done before. A step into the unknown might be good. Regular customers don't need to read the menu. But, having navigated it, they might enjoy the menu's jokes and unusual design. New customers need to read the menu, and won't immediately appreciate the jokes a...

swithun

Looks like they fucked with the wrong trustifarians. Awesome work, dudes.

swithun

You should be able to see it now.

swithun

Nice poster.

Mondays FTW.

swithun

It could be done. Mould wine takes a while to make, so people could bring a bottle and get a bottle's worth of mould wine back. It just wouldn't be the same one. You could have a couple of pans with a couple of bottles on the go (so that you don't end up with 10 different wines mixed together), and ...

swithun

I hope the class goes ahead, but I can only do Mondays.

swithun

Fixeroonied. Chris is putting the old cable in the screen printing room to fester.

swithun

I'm going to check tomorrow with a cable the Neil donated. I do think the colour problem is with the cable that comes from the computer, rather than the one that goes into the projector. I'd rather not climb up the ladder, especially on a Saturday afternoon.

swithun

To get this a step further to realisation, here is some useful information.

swithun

I guess not. This topic is going down.

swithun

Look out for a tin opener shaped parcel Thursday or Friday.

swithun

I can't remember what the genders or length should be, but we could try it tomorrow, Neil.

swithun

The last time I was projecting from my computer, using the VGA cable that reaches to the sound desk, I was having difficulty getting all the colours to appear. It looked like one of the pins in the plug was bent, and I could only get full colour by holding the plug in a particular way. Has anyone el...

swithun

Mondays would be good for me, but only from 7.45.

swithun

I like it. Some rock art would look good. A mastodon or two perhaps?

Yes, thank you, I'll be here all week. I recommend the nachos.
