Apparently, I now have to verify my age in order to read direct messages (or access 'adult content' - though TBH, I didn't realise there was any on Bluesky).
Therefore, please don't DM me.

I'd guess you're referring to either the Hardknott Pass or Wrynose Pass? Neither are closed for half the year, though - only if conditions are bad (neither would be safe if icy) - so if not them, there could be another I need to enjoy.

Probably a topic for discussion at the next meeting, to work out when etc (the website is very basic so doesn't reveal any history). I imagine it predates the first SW Show, which. OTTOMH, was '98?
(Note: I might be too busy to join that meeting. OTOH, I might join it BECAUSE I'm too busy!)

I didn't buy the new TV from them - though I did include them in my various searches, so I fully expect them to try pushing TVs at me RSN. 🤷♂️

Although, this has been a thing with Amazon for a long time before we started branding anything involving a conditional branch as 'AI' 😁

Haha.
I suspect Matthew read this: www.riscository.com/2026/develop... - which refers to the previous meeting, in which that message came up as part of the discussion resulting from the method he described in his talk at London.
I did note Nemo's message, but deliberately chose not to specify it.

Developers' fireside chat - 10th January
The opportunity has once again come around for people involved or interested in software development on, for, or even of RISC OS to gather together and discuss

And as of last night (while watching the excellent film Apostle - albeit at my desk, on a computer screen; would've been better on my TV) the headphones started dropping out.
Looks like it's the lead, where it reaches the jack.
At least the headphones were cheap compared to the other three. 🤷♂️

A couple of nights ago the (mini) synthesizer (Roland JD Xi) suddenly stopped holding on to the currently selected patch (in the digital parts) and reverting to something useless.
(Analogue seems okay so far)
I like the JD Xi. Its small size makes it handy for playing with ideas.
