(23 Feb 2017, 10:05 pm)Andreos1 Justified and ancient!

Wouldn't mind seeing/hearing any new stuff just to compare to the old.


Just to get back to the BRITs. Sam Fox and Mick Fleetwood killed it.

Interestingly a band emerged a few years ago named The FLK. They utilised KLF iconography (including the car displayed in my avatar) which led to rumours about who was behind the music. Of course the rumours were neither confirmed or denied, but it may give some clue towards the direction of new material if they were to release some.

The clip of the Morris Dancers is from a KLF appearance on Top of the Pops and I'm pretty sure that is Bill Drummond at the very end of the video, dressed as a Morris Dancer and snarling during the dance off.

Yesterday was the first that I had ever heard of this incident so I went and did a bit of research into it, I must say, I found it very interesting eventhough the events turned out to be incredibly tragic.

I came across this documentary: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iiWrCIS2Mj0&t=1550s

Very interesting and worth a watch if you haven't seen it when it was broadcast on TV and have time.

I was almost about to mention this in the 'all things water' thread when I saw this here.

Since it happened, I have ways been worried when using a ferry. Even though all of the safeguards are in place regarding closing the doors.

I actually sailed on its sister ferry (renamed Pride of Kent), although I didnt realise the connection at the time.
It was a fugly thing.

I get sea-sick so this won't ever be an issue for me. I like being on solid ground because it massively increases the chances of survival once an incident has taken place. Air travel is the safest form of travel until something goes wrong, at which it becomes the most dangerous.

Just turned the news on, seems they're treating it as a terrorist attack - until they know who he/she is.

Westminster bridge looks like 28 days later with all the buses and cars being abandoned.

Ye same, we only used training ones but even they tell you now.

They're expensive though, around £800 for education settings but you can apply for funding for £400 towards it.

Its easy enough to use, which is great.

Although not paediatric first aid, I first came across them on a first aid course 5/6 years ago.
They're brilliant pieces of kit. Hopefully they become more wide spread.

When i left work, i didn't do first aid at all, as the uni didn't provide the course so it's been 6 years, a few things have changed.

I think from this year or next year the courses for childcare or educational courses (loads to name), have to be provided with the course.

The end of legal tender date should be in years, not months. It's rushed and it holds no benefit. They are changing a coin for cosmetic reasons only. A very large mess is left behind given companies are only finding out through the news that this is happening.
