Want to learn how to crochet?
There will be two beginners’ classes run during May, one from 7pm on Thursday 24th and the other on Saturday 26th from 2pm. Both classes will be identical and will run for two hours, so feel free to pick whichever date suits you better.
During the class you will learn the basics, how to hold the hook and yarn, how to do chain stitch, how to do double and treble stitches. By the end of the class you should be well on your way to starting your first granny square. Continue reading “Beginners’ Crochet Classes”

Next Saturday I am going to re-run my Wireless Security Workshop. Last time I had 16 attendees all busy hacking away at the different wireless access points I set up.
This is a hands on workshop. It is aimed at beginners and you will be following along with what I do on my screen on the projector.
I will cover:
* What wireless is
* Different security settings
* The insecurities of each
* Live demo’s of Open Wireless, WEP, WPA.
* Discussion of WPS
The duration of the class will be 4 hours with a small break in the middle. For the class you will be required to bring your own laptop with either airtools installed, a virtual machine with Backtrack running, or booting into Backtrack via USB/DVD.
This will be the final security course that I run free of charge. In future I will charge a fee that will go towards the running of TOG.
Date: 28th April 2012
Time: 1pm – 5pm
Seats are limited to 16
SOLD OUT – Please add yourself to the waiting list and I will let you know this evening if a place becomes free
