Too late. The IO Groups scheme terminated on Dec 1. Now you have to do the work yourself – you have until Dec 14. CJB

Bill, I'm a member of a couple of other Yahoo Groups that have just migrated to Groups.io. One thing I did hear was that Groups.io was charging a $220 (US) migration fee. In all of the Groups that migrated, the owner asked for members to donate what they could to help with that cost. Members donated anywhere between $5 and $50 via PayPal to the owners with the owners posting daily updates on the amount raised until the $220 was reached. Then the owners used those funds to pay Groups.io.

I've just sent those Groups' owners an email asking them what they did to get the powers that be at Groups.io to migrate them over. I'll pass on anything they tell me ASAP.

Moving the group to IO would require the administrator to invite a certain e-mail address. However, I could not contact the administrator. But we still have some time till Deember 14, so perhaps there is still hope that the administrator steps forward and the moving can be completed..

We've got a <pardon my Galactica> frackload of information stored here and the photos alone are priceless, especially of those showing some behind the scenes and some of the sets! Downloading everything into one's computer (which is what Yahoo is saying we have to do before December 14) would take, probably, longer than the deadline. Also, we would lose all of the messages that have been posted (which we can't download), as well as all other files.

The Running Tide #7 railroads

is up on my public skydrive

http://sdrv.ms/12cgzcR

What do railroads have to do with TOL? Series 1 N7 is "Passage to

Pernambuco", where James implausibly distracted a crew of 1000 railroad

workers to dig wild grape vines in return for a shipload of salt. TRT

was produced independently of TOL but there was some attempt to match

them, so TRT #6 steam was added to S1N6 "Salvage", in which Albert

used his steam pinnace to prevent Callon from salvaging Charlotte

Rhodes. Was that also where Albert corresponded with John Ericson, a

real steam engineer mentioned in TRT #6? TRT #5 crimping was added to

S1N5 "Catch As Can" when Baines was crimped. Anne learned to navigate in

S1N2 "Plain Sailing".

Remember that The Onedin Line was written and filmed in England and used genuine tall ships along with their crews. The ships are still around as are most of the crew members. The BBC at the time produced (and maybe still does) historically accurate and high budget drama programmes including similar series such as Poldark.
The Running Tide filmlets were produced by a t.v. company to 'waste' time. They appear to be badly researched, low-budget, and are US-centric (unsurprisingly). Sadly the History / Discovery Channel(s) a few years ago also produced a series of programmes on sailing ships that were equally as badly researched. I would opine that t.v. companies haven't got a clue about things maritime.

If you really want me to I shall watch them all again and take notes?

 

The difference between a sloop and a cutter is not due to the position of the mast but simply the number of sails set forward of the mast, sloops have only the one, cutters two or more.

 

I did say 'implied' discovering Longitude, some mention of Harrison whould have removed that implication.

 

I used Helm as an example, not because it was mentioned, which it wasn't. Helm is a noun, it's a physical part of a ship (generic) not an action and still is in 2013!

 

I sincerely hope I'm not bursting any bubbles but as I've already said TOL is primarily romantic fiction, yes it has a damned good go at being historically accurate but even it can be nit-picked on the historic front. Next time you watch it look for Talurit, or swaged wire splicing in the rigging, or my Clarkes 'Pasty' shoes in one episode before Ken the wardrobe man caught me not going barefoot! (imagine an angry John Inman from Are You Being Served!) Precise it is not but mostly due to bloopers.

Masefield's long trick is a reference to steering (with the helm!). Contrary to common belief steering is often more disliked than any other duty onboard primarily because it can be incredibly boring, alone, constantly watching a compass or physically exhausting fighting a kicking wheel and the hour 'trick' one does at the wheel can feel an eternity, woebetide any man late to take his turn at the wheel especially on a cold wet night!

 

No, don't worry about the use of the word ship, it has, in the fluidity of our differing languages, became a generic term and perfectly acceptible. However, a ship rigged vessel MUST have three square masts or more hence a brig being a brig.

 

Richard.

So, I guess the single fore and aft mast is too far astern in the first

picture TRT calls a "sloop"; the second picture called a sloop actually

is one?

> Harrison would have something to say on that one!

TRT didn't say American Thomas Sumner discovered how to calculate

longitude, that was already being calculated with clocks & tables. TRT

didn't mention Harrison who invented (1759) a clock accurate enough. TRT

said Sumner discovered (1837) how to calculate longitude with the same

(?!) observation as using the sextant to measure latitude. I'm guessing

he still needed Harrison's clock, just not such complicated tables.

I encourage nit picking, I've always assumed OL is historically

precise*! I imagine TRT was created earlier, independently, but due to

my formative experiences seeing them together, I want TRT accurate too.

(*I think Garibaldi's route to Italy was a little different.)

I think TRT did not say that? OED does have a listing for "helm" as a

verb, usages from 1603-1890.

Huh! I thought I knew, but I was thinking Masefield wrote "trek" until

you pointed it out, TRT does say "trick".

I'm the one who made up the title "sails & ships", I guess "sails &

vessels" or "rigging" would be better. I think TRT was pretty careful

about not calling a schooner etc a "ship". But a brig has square sails

on all (2) masts, right? Sometimes TRT & dictionaries imply a "ship"

has 3 or more masts.

Webster's ship…"

Its not your email account that has been hacked. Changing your password is not the answer. You most likely clicked on a link in a similar email and this sent you to a scam webpage which then put a virus onto your computer. This virus has activated itself, went through your address book and send the 'spam' emails to everyone there. It will do this periodically until it is removed. It has probably got itself well installed onto your PC. It is likely that it has hidden itself in the rootkit of your operating system. These trojan viruses (virii?) are very difficult to remove and most virus protection applications will not protect you from them. Getting rid of them is very difficult and best left to a computer professional to track them down and remove them using special s/w tools.

Subject: [shiponedingroup] Looking for 3 Missing Episodes in AVI format
To: shiponedingroup@yahoogroups.com
Date: Thursday, 15 December, 2011, 7:39

 

Greetings, All,

I've been scouring several sites (Rapidshares, Megaupload, http://www.bergfiles.com) looking for TOL episodes and I've managed to find download links to AVI files for all of TOL episodes, especially by searching "The Onedin Line" on bergfiles; that is, except for three episodes. The one's I've downloaded so far play great on my computer (though at 350MB-550MB per episode, they're filling up what's left of my hard drive so I plan to put them on an external drive, and eventually transfer them to DVD-Rs).

Anyway, the three episodes that seem to be missing from the bergfiles' extensive AVI lists are:

Series 4, Ep 3 "Not Wanted On Voyage"

Series 4, Ep 8 "Shipwreck"

Series 7, Ep 4 "Dirty Cargo"

A couple of those are listed in bergfiles as RAR files, but my computer has never done well with RARs. It seems to absolutely hate all of the RAR extraction apps.

So does anyone know where I can find these episode files in AVI that I can download? Or does anyone have these as AVIs that they'd be willing to put someplace like Megaupload and send me the links so I could download them?

Since I'm finding it impossible to find TOL, in any complete form, on DVD for Region 1 (even though my DVD player is region free, my TV can't play PAL format), these AVIs are the only way I'm able to view these episodes. So with the above three missing I don't have a complete set, and while most of Series 1 that I've been watching seem to be stand-alone stories, they are part of the whole saga and some occasionally refer to things that have happened in previous episodes. So missing one can leave vital gaps in the whole story line.

Any and all help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Dino.

Go to TheBox.bz – create a free account. Log in – browse (search) for keyword 'onedin' or something like that.
Download and install uTorrent 1.8.3 (NOT the latest – just this version)
In TheBox browse listing click on the torrent file required to download it. This is the control file for the file-sharing. Then in uTorrent open the torrent file and the download should start after a few minutes.
Initially your download / upload ratio will be less than 1.0
Once you have downloaded said video file, leave it seeding (uploading) for a few days and your ratio may improve. Its best to keep it at about 1.0 i.e. .1:1 download:upload
If you run out of download credit, i.e. your ratio falls below a certain limit you can either upload (seed) other files, or donate money to buy upload credit. Then you can download yet more files.

Must say it came as surprise to me too, I scan the programme schedules now

and again but missed that.

CJB suggested using thebox torrent site which is a good solution. I believe

this might involve a donation, perhaps he could tell us a bit more about it?

Or perhaps start up some sort of exchange between those who have recorded it

and those who missed them.

DVD-r discs are very cheap, and in a paper or better still plastic sleeve

are very durable, and fit in an envelope that will go on a first class

stamp, anywhere in the UK.

So get the recorders going and if one or two episodes have been missed, I'm

pretty certain an appeal for them might be worth a try on here…

You can also buy any or all of the series on DVD of course!

Bill.
