Lido has had a very bad time, council put the prices up and killed it, Art deco cafe vandalised then demolished, Waterlevel changed to suit wildfowl, water to dirty with duck poo. . . . Railway got much longer. Council since 2010 trying to revitalise, water level restored and quality improved...
If your sole reason for quitting is the poor quality of training then let them take you to court, even take them to court for your loss of time, another job or whatever. The purpose of the bond is to stop people getting a free driving course . If you can demonstrate that there was no effective...
Ladies and Gentleman's bits were the last thing to convert from inches, silly when you think that imperial was human based and we are measuring humans.

725 was the parent route and had been the first orbital from July 1953, 726 was introduced alongside 725 and differed only in the west with Heathrow not Windsor as the terminus, it may have been intended to reduce 727 loading Kingston to Heathrow, which was frequently ram jam full.

A uniform should be a...

I went to Exeter St Davids to meet someone on Saturday afternoon, most of the long distance trains seemed to be delayed, can anyone explain what was happening and why?
Long gone but my favorite was a window table in the upstairs eating area Burger King Waterloo before the Arial walkway , You could watch the bustle right across the concourse but just sit and relax, and yes there were a few trains beyond the barrier. Very few customers used upstairs and the...
