Cheers. 🙂👍
Listened to the last one this morning whilst making oak cable management tunnels, but that’s not important right now.

It just got important. WTF is an oak cable management tunnel? The class would like to know now.

I assume its a tunnel. Made from oak. For managing cables.

The real question is HOW it manages the cables. Dictatorially, or my develiping and nurturing a team ethos focused on delivery of plugs and sockets in an orderly fashion for the grater good.

WTF is an oak cable management tunnel?

Nothing that exciting sorry.
Just a method to route all of the wires and plug sockets and that down the centre, underside of a conference table I’m making, which is under the tarp.

Is a full size player of some sort meant to open when you listen to the podcast or is it meant to stay discrete in that small banner?

I get bored of beautiful and clearly skilled people in the air on their bike above a beautiful vista, show me a rider on that same terrain who looks as terrified and relieved to have survived the descent as I would be and I’d be more inclined to trust the capabilities of the bike/kit that they are on/using/wearing

How do I listen ad free without it constantly restarting just as Charlie says hello?

It’s just an mp3 file say in our media library that only full members can access. I’m not sure why it restarts unless there’s a connection issue. I will add the file to the downloads area tomorrow for full members.

I’ve now added it to the members downloads area under issue 147. It’s a 43mb .mp3 file.

👍🙂 Cheers. Will have a listen later!

Something that’s been puzzling me for some time now – what is a “plug socket”? Mains, USB, audio, video, low-voltage power?
