All sorted.

Although im having issues connecting today (and a few days ago)

I was timing out, and then once I was in, I could see me own player stood still in the the same place that I spawned.

I see someone's made a basic trading hall but I don't think there'll be enough resources to make use of them really.
The trading hall is a jb10/ms69 creation. The amount of time Boyd spends at the zombie spawner collecting flesh he must have stacks of emeralds biggrin

I've marked out some slime chunks near Bobhughes' bridge and dug out the first layer of a farm there. I've put instructions on signs if anyone wants to help with digging. The design will basically be same as this one towards the end of the video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W83TKofMWvw

If you come across any caves, please light them up fully and go crazy with the torches to prevent other mobs from spawning as this will greatly increase the slime spawn rates if other mobs are prevented from spawning so either fill in or light up and 2 block high spaces. Same for on the surface. Already had 3 large slimes spawn on the first layer I've done. Just another 7 layers to go spin

I'm still working on the villager project but run out of time for today. The golem farm is producing a decent amount of iron which is stored in the chest down the path at the bottom of the ladder. Ignore the villagers accumulating there for now as they will eventually die in the lava when it backs up.

Wierd, anyway I've dug out a bit of the nether towards the yet to be constructed ice spike portal but got roasted by lava and lost everything so need to get obsidian and new tools. Will try and get back on later.

Ice Spike nether portal @ -793/119/-112. Signposted and just keep going down the roofed forest path. It is a long way though.

Mesa portal now built. Go left out of the main portal and then take a left before you come out in to the main nether. It's all signposted.

Also watch out for the skeletons in the ice spike portal area. It was created about 1/2 dozen places from a skeleton spawner in the middle of a mountain.... I put a torch on it but they still seem to be spawning. Maybe a good location for an xp farm?

I have started an XP farm next to the Ice Spike portal as there is a skeleton spawner there, have dug out the main chamber and the 2 vertical tubes so just need to line with water and signs and do the killing room if anyone wants to help out. Just watch out for drops into lava.

@ Terry, just realised I've done slime room wrong size... I've put the 3 wide drop within the slime spawn chunks instead of being on the outside. Platforms should be 32x32 (4x 16 wide chunks) instead of the current 26x26. frown More digging..

Bought in a bit of an issue, was digging down a random mine in search for stuff, managed to come across an opening with a few zombies in it. One of them managed to do me over with something that was constantly dropping off half a heart at a time. Managed to back out with time to spare but now a bit stuck...

There is now a skeleton xp farm at the ice spike portal. It is signposted and I'm going to build an enchanting table there as it is a pain to get to and from.

Nice one Terry, cheers - even with just 2 layers done the slimes were pissing me off spawning and attacking me all the time whilst trying to dig, that's why I'd decided to dig the trenches to get them out of the way. I keep working on it but alas, I've repaired my silk touch pick too many times now and it's "too expensive!" to fix it again so I'm currently pick-less for doing anything for the slime farm. Bought a few of those iron unbreaking 3, efficiency 3 ones from the villager and will now work on organising the villager trading hall and spend some time trading to unlock the best trades. I'm on a lot through the night at the moment due to my work pattern.
