    Stayed there recently and got on great with the trams you can get tickets valid for 1hour up to 3days just flash them against the meter when you get on!

    We stayed a short tram hop from Dam Square at the tulip inn west in Slotervidjik was a quiet clean hotel and a good breakfast.

    Ive got a tomtom spark 3 it comes with a cradle/lead to charge which is not that much of a faff to do,long as you have the tomtom sports app on your phone it pairs and syncs straight away to strava or whichever fitness app you prefer, you can also up load trails to it which appear on the screen to follow.

    In person would be at Highbury when Steve Bould chipped the ball over Evertons midfield to Tony Adams to score, the most unlikely goal scoring duo! think it was around 98? and Arsenal won 4-0

    On a sidenote if your employer requires you to wear a uniform and they supply the uniform which you have to wash at home, you can also claim back the cost of washing the uniform.

    Although I think you can only claim backdate about 4 years worth?

    I’ve worked for a large British Airline since 97 and with the current round of bad press and craze of outsourcing anything management can make a quick pound on, I think its time to start looking around.

    I was in Banff few years ago local news reported that a lady out jogging got attacked by a cougar as she bent down to tie her shoe lace, apparently they stalk you and wait till your at your most vulnerable before pouncing !!

    To be honest fella we got chatting to a geologist guy who did a lot of field work around Banff and Kananaskis and he’d never seen a bear in 20yrs in the back country.

    The parks advise you to just make noise as you travel, talking and such and when coming to a bend in the trail you cant see round make a whooping/loud noise so you don’t startle a bear gives them a chance to move out of the way.Everyone seemed to have a small bell clipped on somewhere so it tinkles away so the bears either know to get out the way or its meal time!

    There’s some clips on youtube of a guy who goes solo for days on end in the Canada backcountry ‘martyupnorth’ might be handy for research ?

    Just as a afterthought the Park advised to put all our wash stuff in the bear bag/locker as well.

    I did a two night backcountry trip in Alberta last year we booked onto what they call ‘backcountry campgrounds’ one of them had a communal cooking/fire pit area away from the tents which also had bear bins/lockers to put all your food/smelly stuff in,the other site just had the bear bins away from the tent area, both camp grounds had a ‘H’ frame structure to string your food bags up but no one was using them.

    MEC would be a good call also try ‘Atmosphere’ or ‘Bass pro shops’ for your bear aware stuff, we carried bear spray each and went to sleep with a knife and bear spray handy in case we needed to make a quick escape!

    Ive been struggling with depression on and off for the past few years since a relationship split and divorce went to the NHS doctors and got prescribed citalopram in the end I saw a private counsellor as I got fed up waiting for the NHS referral and that was the best thing I could have done, just being able to talk to someone totally unattached from what was going on was a massive help and between us we could work out what was at the crux of it,in the end I made a big change in my work hours going from a 7day shift pattern of early and late starts to working 7-3 Monday-Friday bit of a money drop but worth it in the long run!

    Maybe if your mates a chef he’s working anti social hours and that could be a part of it?

    After doing a bit of digging on halfords website, if you purchase something then they reduce the price if you go back in store within 7days they will refund you the difference.

    I didn’t realise they have an offer of 15% off all cycle accessories including clothing, I’ll be going back in the morning see what happens!

    The way the house prices and rental market is going in London it wouldn’t surprise me if pretty soon there won’t be any one left living there to do the normal jobs like bus driving or working a minimum wage job

    Why should you be labelled a benefits cheat? If your applying for something and the government agree and say your qualified for it?

    Who’s at fault the person applying? Or the government for having the policy?
