 Av> Yep this is all locked in now, I'll be away around 20 days. My mum is

 Av> like it could be benign or malignant it's a 50/50 thing so will hang for
 Av> a few more days to support them both during this time. My wife is coming
 Av> on this trip with me too so it should be a different month coming up.

Well, I'm sure it will be good to have your wife there for some extra support. Hope the surgery goes ok.

 Av> Thanks, this last few weeks have been mostly good and the team I am in
 Av> have all been working and sharing thoughts and feelings together. So
 Av> that's been good.

Yeah, that's good.

 Av> I'll need to set you up again to do the hatching yourself as the node
 Av> number was made inactive but I am contacting you now to confirm which
 Av> node number you want ... I think 1/182 would be best.

Thanks for doing this, although I have no idea how to hatch with synchronet.. heh. I'll figure it out I am sure, I wonder if I could hatch from my point? Not asking you to set something up, just wondering if it would work - seems my point goes through synchronet.

 Av> My daughter is into some online gaming and feels the same way, nicer when
 Av> there's some $$ spare but OK if not. I think now she is working she may
 Av> spend a few $$ on such things :)

Oh? what does she play? I've been playing mostly the traditional MMO style games, seems games are getting more and more monetised, Eve online is a good one, they really trying to get you to buy all the things. Then there are those casual games that you might play on your phone, always wanting you to buy the currency to get a bit more stuff, and don't get me started on loot boxes lol!

Oh well, been working on the OS a bit the last little while, (you might have seen on facebook) got the TCP working - before when I thought it was working i thought the "dropped packets" were because my ethernet buffers were filling up faster than my OS could handle them, but no. Works perfectly (touch wood) now.

Wife's birthday tomorrow. Her sister is coming over tonight for dinner, then tomorrow night wife and i will go out for dinner. Probably the last chance in a while!
