Because of the new computer I had to buy I am on Staycation this year, i.e only doing odd days at home.

Sticks 03-10-2010 09:10 PM

I will be heading back to Lundy at the end of this week

Sticks 07-10-2010 06:58 PM

I start to head down to Ilfracombe tomorrow for my Lundy 2010 trip.

I hope to take a dongle with me, but am told that may not work. There is the Wfi in the tavern, if it is still working, but that was always flaky

So may not be around for a couple of weeks.

Sticks 09-10-2010 05:23 AM

I have established that there is no longer any WiFi available in the tavern on Lundy. If my dongle does not work on Lundy Island, and according to the coverage map on the website of the provider, it won't, It looks like I will be away from this board for a while.

I may have limited internet access via my mobile, but it will not be able to access this forum.

I am now off the island

I did not have the internet access I had in 2008.

I travel back to Newcastle tomorrow

Benjamin 19-10-2010 07:00 PM

Lundy island is a quaint little place. Went there a few years ago :)

Stacey. 19-10-2010 07:03 PM

lmao what the hell?

You were online not so long ago..

Sticks 19-10-2010 07:04 PM

I could not get online since 08-October

Stacey. 19-10-2010 07:06 PM

Yeah, you've been online LOL.

You were like the other day.

GypsyGoth 19-10-2010 07:07 PM

The only really limited internet access I had was on my mobile phone to hotmail, facebook and twitter. I was unable to use it for this forum, or the email account the email notifications go to

Jords 19-10-2010 07:24 PM

Im really confused :S You have only just got off this island since going there in 2007? When did the internet connection go?

You were using this forum though! And it was blatantly on a computer.

OK in 2007 and 2008 I was allowed to use the Lundy Island WiFi

Since them, due to the number of visitors using it causing problems for Lundy Island Staff, visitors were no longer permitted to use it.

I was therefore unable to use it this time.

I did have a dongle with me, but it proved unreliable as it was in a technical dead zone with atmospherics allowing only brief and barely usable connections.

My mobile phone only afforded me limited access to twitter, hotmail and Facebook

I was not able to access TIBB during my stay this time on Lundy

Stacey. 19-10-2010 07:34 PM

You're clearly lying...

Sticks 19-10-2010 07:43 PM

If you check this thread there was a gap between today's post and 09 October in the morning.

I went onto the island on 09 October 2010 and came off today. On Sunday 10 October my dongle seemed to work quite well for a short while. I do not recall visiting TIBB during this brief window.

Stacey. 19-10-2010 07:45 PM

I thought you meant you'd been on the island for 3 years. :blush:

I'm so lost umg.
