The 18-seater prop plane journey was a novelty too. It didn’t really feel like an overseas trip :) -- Will Hargrave +44 114 303

Yes, this: it was great to have such an interesting integrated meeting of the two isles. The ION conference added another helping of great people, too. And Belfast was utterly awesome. Anyone that didn't fancy leaving Britain to get over there really did miss out. I'd like us to go back as soon as possible, please. :) Thanks for being such a good host as well, Dave! Tom
Re: [uknof] Belfast
Good venue, good people, good content, good hosting, tasty shortbread biscuits and delicious scones (not had scones in a break since Bristol?). Thanks to all involved. Rob

Any bum-puckers at all? :) Reason I ask is I read this the other day: http://www.aaib.gov.uk/publications/special_bulletins/s5_2014___jetstream_31__g_gava.cfm I used to love eating the sticky buns and pastries on the Newcastle to Belfast Harbour flight, I often had the plane almost to myself (other than the crew and a pile of mailbags up front) Very annoyed I couldn't make it myself, one of my favourite cities. -- sent via Gmail web interface, so please excuse my gross neglect of Netiquette
[uknof] CWDM Advice needed
Looking for some advice here. Deploying cwdm onto a dark fibre link in next few weeks. I have a pair if 11 channel mux/demux's which include wavelength 1310nm. I'm talking to now two suppliers, one in china who supplied the mux's and one in Europe. One supplier is saying I can use standard sfp optics as they use 1310 nm on my 1310 port and these are cheap as chips! However the other supplier is saying that these won't work as they are not as finely tuned and say I need cwdm 1310 optics which are considerably more expensive! Can anyone here advice which is correct? Regards Joe Waite
