I have created a room, go to the WFC connection in mario Kart and click on friends, then click on Auntie Bob to join the room for the race


Will wait till half past 8 to see who joins but if enough people join early enough then we can have a practie race

Well Siduhe and I just got well and truly beaten there by Melbourne Gr, more practice I fear.


I can't explain how we got it to work, one thing we did do was set the Wii to a fixed IP well away from the other devices on our network of which there are many. Firewall was on and seemed OK but we were hosting if that makes a difference.


Thanks for the game, and thanks for going easy on the last race...!

LoL. The first few times I tried to join, I got the same error.


Thanks for the races - good fun. I admire how you and Siduhe used the wheel so well. I am absolutely useless with the wheel :)) and use a pad. I also liked the aggressive tactics on the second race! >:D< - i've never been knocked off so early in a race before.


Hope to race again soon

have reconfigured my wii to static IP and also reset aspects of my firewalls so that it should allow me through


Will be looking for someone to assist in testing out the connection again this week if that is okay


as for when is the next race, asuming everyone can connect (and if my changes work I will post a guide here) then how bout next Tueday evening (day after the bank holiday)

Next Tuesday I will watching Brain of Britain at the BBC - no, best not to ask.


Can either join the one after that - although what about Bank Holiday Monday evening - or are people out and about then?


LP - happy to help with connection testing tonight if you want, from about 8:30pm.


Last night has made me determined to practice racing a bit more whilst sober - it was an entirely different experience. Also, that rainbow racetrack in space (which I kept falling off and plummeting to earth from) was very bizarre - going to try that one a few times before we meet again!

Would appreciate help at 8:30


Think if it is okay we can do a test by each of us creating a room (and then a quick race) to ensure that connections work for me


as for the rainbow road... best tackled stone cold sober as it feels like a road trip from the 60's

      Cllr Williams to stand down

      By HeadNun · Posted

      I edited my post because I couldn't be sure we were talking about politicians and I couldn't be bothered to read it all back. But it was off the back of a thread discussing labour councillors, so it went without saying really and I should have left it.  What I said was 'There's something very aggressive about language like that - it's not big and it's not clever. Some of the angry energy that comes from the far left is pretty self-defeating.' (In relation to a labour councillor rather immaturely, in my view, wearing a jumper that read 'fuck the Tories').  But I don't recall saying that "violent rhetoric" is exclusively the domain of the left wing. So I do think you're taking a bit of a bit of leap here.

      You literally just edited your earlier reply to remove the point you made about it being “politicians”.  Then you call me pathetic.    I’m  not trying to say you approve any of the ugly right wing nonsense.  But I AM Saying your earlier post suggesting  violent rhetoric being “left wing” was one-sided and incorrect

      I never said that. Saying I don’t like some of the rhetoric coming from the left doesn’t mean I approve of Farage et al saying that Afghans being brought here to protect their lives and thank them for their service means there is an incalculable threat to women.    Anything to score a cheap point. It’s pretty pathetic.

      Is Rachel Reeves becoming the new Liz Truss?

      By Rockets · Posted

      To be fair we are as hosed as the majority of other countries post-Covid. The problem is Labour promised way too much and leant in on the we need change and we will deliver it and it was clear to anyone with a modicum of sense that no change was going to happen quickly and actually taking the reigns may have been a massive poison- chalice. As Labour are finding to their cost - there are no easy answers.  A wealth tax seems straightforward but look how Labour have U-turned on elements of non-dom - why? Because the super rich started leaving the country in their droves and whilst we all may want them to pay more tax they already pay a big chunk already and the government saw there was a problem.
