Arts and Entertainment / Re: RIP David Bellamy
« Last post by SteveC on Yesterday at 08:49:05 pm »Saw him live twice. Once when I was at school and he came to our British Association of Young Scientists group. Very inspirational, made me consider his course at Durham (although in the end I didn't do biology and wouldn't have got in there anyway) and once, many years later when he was getting political. Much of what he said was good sense, but I did disagree with some of his solutions.
But the world will be a duller place without him.

Lots of talks included in the ticket price of about £10.
There are 90 Min work shops you can pay extra for.
There are lots of tour operators there organising trips all over the place. Also some stalls selling I remember a few selling books

On The Road / Re: The Rise (and Fall) of the Suburban Main Battle Tank
« Last post by road-runner on Yesterday at 08:22:45 pm »I will add that I agree too as I see in Slovakia what the future could otherwise be in the UK. Over here I wouldn say that by and large (by which I mean about 95%) of cyclists now ride on the pavement. As a road rider I get hooted at often. Road deaths here are approximately 3 times those in the UK, albeit here the population is only 1/12th of the size of the UK.
The arguments presented above really require not just laws to make such large domestic vehicles less desirable but also a change in national culture, like happened with smoking, so that by far the majority do not want suburban battle tanks being on the school, office and shop runs.
