Hi there, <br>
<br>
I'm wondering what people think about getting more Forest School
type activities happening again? I think that worked really well
when it did happen and I was sad to see it peter out last time. It
seemed to be a good way of making sure there was something for young
people. I know that some of the people that brought kids last time
were a bit disappointed. <br>
<br>
Also I don't know much about this area but I reckon you could do
some really interesting things with IoT / wireless and Forest Dens,
like rigging up cameras and microphones to try to record widelife or
similar.<br>
<br>
Anyway just a thought<br>
<br>
nice one<br>
Mick<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">I'll have a Lantern we can have a play
with, and maybe we could play </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">around with a satellite dish and try and
receive the higher bandwidth </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Lighthouse signal on a Pi?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We're also working on</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.thethingsnetwork.org">www.thethingsnetwork.org</a> network which is a
low bandwidth FOSS IOT </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">network, so may have a gateway/ some solar

<p class="MsoNormal">It's all about the low bandwidth for me at
