          @black3dynamite Yep it's all the rage. I don't know what the heck they learn from it, IT in (junior) Education is a big con I reckon, but what would I know, 2/5's of bugger all at best.

            actually it's interesting. I've been involved with IT in schools for 10 years & a report has just been released down here showing how students results, nationally, in the basics, reading, maths, science have continually fallen over the past 10 years.
            In my 10 years I've seen students using more & more IT each year and more and more teaching is being done with YouTube.

              old mate @nadnerB is up for a stinker today over there in the West, hotter than Hadies.
              I'm sitting here is almost full winter gear updating Minecraft on student laptops.

              Yeah, not a great day for gardening.

                  post on another forum about a trip to the doctor.
                  advert for doctor in the suburb where my ISP supplied IP address tracks to, shows up in FB
                  read post on another forum about a bloke who's just put in a concrete floor for a new shed he's building.
                  advert for concreter shows up on FB.
                  this is getting out of hand.
                  am I being stupid if I begin to look for a secure browser?

                    Also, logging out of BookFace when you're not using it is also good.

                            Almost lost my eye brows when I've been out... but for the most part, I'm cheating by staying in my air conditioned office.
                            We have hit 42 so far, and had the mobile network go a bit wobbly for a while. Evidently it's not handling the heat from the last few days well.

                              Hang in there mate. I'm off for now, just almost 1730 here. Probably have to light the fire tonight.
                              I think it's supposed to be 37 on Monday or Tuesday, so the AC will get a beating then.
