    All genres of theatre have good and bad presentations. I’m afraid I have a Scottish bias here but I suggest you seek out stuff by Vox Motus for high quality cutting edge. Look for trailers of Dragon. No text is spoken through the whole show but it’s amazing. English touring Theatre do high production value popular classics. Slava Snow show is also touring at the moment if you want to get kids enthused. Scottish pantomime is also much higher quality writing than in England. Tron Theatre at Christmas and The Oran mor summer/winter pantos hilarious and satirical. Other notable companies that do stuff that excites rather than bore or you can even take part in are Frantic assembly, vanishing point, citizens Theatre glasgow.
    Utter Theatre did a great show at ed fest called “standby” which was a police comedy/drama. All the audience got police earpieces which helped tell parts of the story. Clever and involving and very cool.

    I got food poisoning from my only aga meal. Burnt on the outside. Raw on the inside.

    If I ever bought a house with one I’d sell it, or scrap it because no one with any environmental responsibility should be using them. It’s not 1930 and you don’t have staff.

    3 wheels 3 tyres and a rear axle. Whatever fuel is left in the tank. There is not much else in a 206.

    Add in the lever and we could probably all manage it.

    You can get 50 miles out a transit with the light on. Burn coast don’t brake.

    Palace of Scone. Skoon

    Scoane is for some English visitors and Scots with pretensions of grandeur. Jam cream butter goes on in whatever order is available. If someone else has the jam put on cream for maximum efficiency.

    I used it in London recently. It loved official sustrans routes, which are often stupid and once directed me up a rarely used bridleway.

    If it sends you through green bits in an urban area be suspicious.

    Better to look at google maps to get a common sense human idea then combine the knowledge.

    Lots of vans increase rpm when clutch goes in. I think its part of antistall features. could that be related?

    The ford transit forum would be the place to ask.

    I thought the roads were actually pretty safe. The mixed use kept speeds low and no one drove like a British idiot. Taxi drivers maybe a bit quick sometimes. Train is better than taxis. You may get ripped off in certain types of taxis.

    Old quarter is good, the French bit too. If you want to go to the water front, go one block left or right from the main drag and avoid the hawkers.

    Disturbing the site a lot seemed to work for me. The population changed too so they might move on.

    I used to have one. It was really reliable non turbo slow and a bit noisy. You guided it rather than drove it.

    I’d go for a vivaro Renault these days I reckon.

    School play is probably the best team building exercise they’ll ever do in their whole life….they might not like it but that’s what work is like.

    You only get out of it what you put in. There is a shed load of arts, maths, technology, research skill to put into action. Dismiss it at your peril. And for some one it might be deciding their future positive or negative!

    Does your mac even have a DVD writer?

    If it does it already has iDVD.

    Do they have a modern TVs with a USB port? That might be more elderly relative proof and longer lasting. The DVD will be powder in 10 years.

    The canals would be fine for exploring. Take a head torch and do The tunnel at Falkirk.

    Loch Lomond also worth a look. Aldochlay is a good place to put in. Try not to upset the locals and park considerately. Sometimes it’s drop boats off and park elsewhere.

    Take weather into account. Loch Lomond rescue boat seem to be returning a lot of folk who could have got a taxi from a plan b bail out point. In an inflatable you really want zero wind. Take flares. Mobile signal north of Luss is poor.

    Loch Sween also very sheltered if you go further afield.

    Strathclyde park is council run and needs RYA quals before they’ll let you on. Hogganfield used to be the home of glasgow schools sailing club, where my parents met! I exist because of a glacial land formation!

    I have a 120000 mile 206 SW. Replaced clutch once, battery once, as you do on all cars. Wore out a rear hub and all suspension components. A brake disintegrated once. Rear shocks on their way out again. Would have another no problem. Probably the big estate next time or a Mondeo. Electrically no problems. Used to have a despatch van which was 100 reliable.

    Reliability/preventative maintenance go hand in hand. Ignore a Honda/Toyota and you’ll break down too.

    A big list of places ruined by **** with campers, abandoned tents full of bin bags, human waste, damaged trees and pissed off locals having to live with it.

    Maybe they could offer to pay off the damage with a 3way split/reduction in wages?

    I think your local WiFi is unlikely to be affected by anything unless a component is faulty andd is affected by by a temp difference for example. The digital radio could be affected by atmospheric conditions though. High pressure on a cold clear night though should improve transmission conditions? Is that not when the ham radio guys bounce stuff of the ionosphere and get Australia and stuff?

    Shimano steps feels like it has resistance when power is off. Bosch feels more free when power is off. You could pedal home with a flat battery on a Bosch but shimano you’d be walking. In realty though the runtime and range info is so good it’s hard to end up in that situation.

    Just do it! Imagine sailing from Denmark to turkey, and descending the Yukon and a whole lot of other stuff before you are even 7.

    That’s a real education!

    My railways were constructed in the garden, through cuttings in wild garlic. Twigs were a major export, and shortbread fingers imported.

    To some extent i reckon the folk committing these acts are desperate to be part of an in group. Like van owners getting remaps or people planking it’s similar but more sinister.

    It’s all done on line, in forums, and chat groups. People with agendas are taking advantage of vulnerable folk, and they in turn inspire other easily led idiots. Basically the same as abuse grooming. I’d consider them as victims too.

    Why are young people so desperate though? What’s missing from their lives? The ones travelling to fight or blowing themselves up don’t always come from terrible backgrounds, they can be incredibly fortunate too. I’m not sure anyone really understands.

    Vacuum system?

    My 206 managed to create a vacuum in the fuel tank once and had similar symptoms. It appeared to be related to an overall vac system fault with some persiished pipes. They were swapped out and it has been fine since.

    Occasionally the fault peep sounds but registers nothing, usually in the style of saddle’s van.

    Seems academic. If they are in the van and have time to diddle about with bicycles, the engine of the van has probably already been stolen.

    Drummers and DJs do this all the time. Pain inthe ass that others have to deal with. Have you tried wedding people/village hall key holder? They might be making you sweat a bit!

    Sounds like BPD. Yes call police if worried sooner rather than later. And get support for yourself. Breathing space and the like are also there for you too.

    I like handrail signs. I love toolbox talks.

    Usually means the company is taking H&S seriously with management leading as they wish others to follow. If it prevents falls on an oil rig then it should apply in the offices onshore too.

    Scottish Power management used to not bother with PPE on site…but a H&S person made them and got results from the staff further down the line.

    Best safety briefings I have seen are from the Ocean Youth Trust and best fire training I have seen is theatre royal Bath. They do a full evac with an audience every week after the last show.
