Flat

We just bought a flat.

Yep, [livejournal.com profile] spikeylady and I are moving out of our flat we rent right above [livejournal.com profile] ergotia and [livejournal.com profile] lilithmagna's flat, and bought one... just across the road. Plans for the four of us to move in together are on hold while they try and fight with the builders to get their flat into a more saleable state, but since we can see their bedroom from Jess's bedroom we shouldn't be too far away :-)

Hoping to complete shortly after Whitby, but we will see.

Wheeeee!

This of course DEMANDS an experiment with two paper cups and a long piece of string... a reaaaaaally long piece of string.

The question is, will that work for the internets?!

[identity profile] ravenevermore.livejournal.com 2007-04-16 12:27 pm (UTC)(link)
well if you print out a webpage in binary, set up a microphone on the other end by the paper cup ...
and then install some speech-to-text software...

Great, get a bunch of geeks together, mention that you have two rooms in sight of each-other and they all get similar ideas.

[identity profile] ravenevermore.livejournal.com 2007-04-16 12:41 pm (UTC)(link)
need to get a think tank together... we could probably rule the world.

Oh, that's so last century!!!

No no no... you need two pringles-can directional antennas so you can still share the same wifi!

Cool, that is good news to get things sorted so quickly.

Rar! Give us a shout if you need a hand moving house (or should I call it 'carrying across'?!)

Congratulations and best of luck with the moving!

I suppose implementing a high speed data channel with support for light packets
transfer protocol but arguable resistance to tampering (aka clothes rope with clothes peg) is out of the question? there are even some RFCs around...

Congratulations and good luck with the move. I look forward to seeing the new lair.

We're thinking of calling it the West Wing...

[identity profile] webcowgirl.livejournal.com 2007-04-16 01:02 pm (UTC)(link)
That would be so perfect. :-)

[identity profile] lovelybug.livejournal.com 2007-04-16 01:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, it's west of Lisa and Lil's place, so it's kind of the West Wing of the Quad house :)

Congratulations! I am available to assist with manual labour should you decide to dig a tunnel under Hopton Road.

If you are a freeholder, you are now entitled to style yourself ciphergoth esquire.

String-and-Cans is so-o-oo last-century! If you have line-of sight to anyone's apartment it goes without saying that you will be leeching their WiFi with the aid of a Pringles' can. String is for vests... Unless you actually want people to refer to the West Wing LAN as the Vest Ring.

Many congratulations on the flat-buy. May it bring you pleasure and have much pleasure in it for many years to come :)
Enjoy Whitby, annoyingly I can never seem to make it due to work for the WGWs, so took myself there for a couple of days last week, not really the same, but its a nice town any time of the year I think.
