Great i'm going for a couple of days and couldn't pick my nose with irish racing, i shall be following blindly..

Jembatt gets in as a reserve tonight I've backed him for my biggest ever win. He would have gone very close that night at Cork if not being badly hampered and he has had some excuses since, the ground was far worse than described at Sligo last time and he was badly drawn and a similar story at Roscommon the time before. He was seriously aggressively campaigned for a horse that was returning from a lay off like many of the Mulvany's and it's possible he could be a new horse tonight with everything in his favour, ground to suit and a nice draw. It's not a bad race for the grade but on a mark of 49 (4lbs below that Cork run) I'm hopeful he can go seriously well. Norville feared most, ahead of Mr Good Guy. This is no 22/1 shot

Anyone here particularly good with computers? Having a problem connecting and I've tried all the basics, turning off and on etc, a restore didn't do the trick either and I'm sure it's not the router

Are you getting any error? Does tour computer see the wifi connection? Laptop or pc?

Peintre Celebre

It's connecting just getting a limited connection though. Laptop every other device is fine. I downloaded tunnel bear and was working fine but it stopped all of a sudden. Thought it might have something to do with that so I uninstalled it and still no joy

Did you leave the router off for a minute before turning it back on? If not do it and when the router is back on (give it 2/3 minutes) then restart the laptop. I have this issue a lot with UPC and running Windows 8.

You could sweep the computer with spybot and malwarebytes to clear any malicious ****e off it, this could speed up the limited connection you have.

Well done yesterday mate, too late to the thread, might back Ted again today, ground more in his favour.

Yeah

If you can right click the yelow triangle hit (open network sharing centre), then hit change adaptor settings on the left. Then right click the blue coloured connection "probably called local area connection" hit properties. Then go down to "internet protocol version4 " click that and hit the properties button.

In the second set of boxes click the user the following DNS servers and type the following into the box

Prefferred DNS server 8.8.8.8 "8 in each box"
Alternate 8.8.4.4. The press ok a few times .

Give that a shot first just in case the proxy software fecked up your dns settings

We need to setup an IT support thread here:)

Got sorted lads thanks ran a total restore and just added the tunnel bear as a chrome extension rather than the app. Seems to have done the trick

Anyone watch Britain the the Bookies? Steve Palmer looks like a serious mug

Yeah been watching that, real car crash TV.

Palmer is a legend IMO, no pretensions and down to earth. Always a good read in the RP, obviously a lost cause as a punter - bloody good judge on the golf though. Not condoning the posters in the bedroom or the "this will not get beaten" song...

Also, noticed the way they rejigged the timeline when following the Coral traders - Code Red ran before Elm Park or Latenightrequest/Open Eagle in reality but they showed it last as the race that "saved their day".

Please god a filly that really caught the eye last time and should run well at a unique track that will be bottomless ground. Did anyone see the clowns in Audi galway that put up a fake competition and were caught out
