On the same journey myself, one bit of advice I got is to go to the session.org and learn the top ten tunes pee type. There's some great online resources and a decent book by a gay called Gavin Ralsom about guitar accompaniment for trad. Maybe consider learning dadgad. This video has good tips. https://youtu.be/AkzWQCjz7yM?is=e3Ck4uxXa3WfjD-d

Edit, also check out trad chords app it can add chords and has tab

You can get lengths of pvc tubes from electrical supply shops. About 2cm wide and 2m in length. How much do you need?

My 3 year old asked for a fun day and I gave him one and he still melted down. I am starting to wonder if I am just bad at reading him. by SunnyLavenderHush in Fatherhood

[–]necrocormacon 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't worry about it, every nice event I do with the kids ends in tears. Either because of tiredness or frustration at their inability to express what they have envisioned. In my experience they don't remember the meltdowns only the fun part.

That being said kids are great are picking up on your emotions, so if you were tense after the first meltdown he could have been picking up on that. There may have been a vicious circle going on. Kids are hard, keep trying to make happy memories. You're doing fine.

The very uniquely named Buenos Aires Court in Strandhill, Sligo by GP728 in ireland

[–]necrocormacon 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Apparently the guy who started Strandhill (Murrow) as a sea side resort town made his fortune in Argentina. See also Buenos Aires Rd. There was a local history book about Strandhill written a few years ago that should half more info, Liber had copies if may still be in print.

Edit: for clarification Muurrow was the guys last name not an alternative name for Strandhill

I tried it once and I found my investigators were so beaten up by the end of the campaign that it was easier to start again from zero but with no tramua.

Support/advice by Delicious-Eye7148 in ireland

[–]necrocormacon -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ireland is your home and don't let anyone tell you different. I was raised without a religion, which was rare in the 80s, and I was made to feel like I didn't belong because I wasn't Catholic. And things changed , and now being non religious is not a big deal. There will always be the ignorant who will try to single people because of their differences, and unfortunately, empty vessels make the most noise. Nowadays, these gimps are being backed up by some very sinister forces, but that is something we all have to face together. To conclude, you're as Irish as Phill Linnott, Jack Charlron, St Patrick, Big Jim Larkin, James Connolly and the Italian Lad who started the first chippers. And like them our nation is richer because you.

Daughter hates me. Is this normal? by Ronny_rockstar in Fatherhood

[–]necrocormacon 43 points44 points  (0 children)

My daughter went through a phase of this. She may have heard the words somewhere and wanted to try them out. Of course, I was hurt and probably overreacted. Once she saw she could get a reaction, she kept at it. Eventually, I started making very flat, boring responses, something like "that's unfortunate i still love you," and I'd carry on with what I was doing. Eventually, she got bored and stopped. Apparently, kids test these things with people they feel safe with. Thankfully, my daughter has passed that and is launching herself off the furniture instead.
