I had a client ask me last month if I would drive to mid Wales to shoot Sian Lloyd for a feature. It was one picture, which would have taken an hour, tops. Bookended by five or six hours of driving in either direction - largely due to the last 90 odd miles being all A,B and country roads. Can't remember the mileage but I think, according to Google it would be close to 600 round trip. Fuel alone would have eaten close to half the £300 they wanted to pay all in. They were politely told to fuck off. |

I might download it as it has Eliza Dushku in it Its a bit hit and miss at times - there are a few threads discussing it already The original when it first came out viewtopic.php?f=3&t=3278&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&hilit=dollhouse And its mentioned a few times in the general purpose US thread viewtopic.php?f=3&t=2098&p=330732&hilit=dollhouse#p330732 Season 1 had quite a slow start but picked up well and the last 3 or 4 are really good with a final ep which (without spoiling things) takes it in a totally different direction. Season 2 so far has gone back to the same type of stuff as early season 1 but i did really enjoy the last ep (number 4 so far). Its been getting quite poor viewing figures in the US so is unlikely to continue beyond season 2 (although i guess they could continue in comics or movies which would both be typical for Joss stuff) Ta, I'll have a read when I finish for the day |

Have you considered eating them, Albin0kid? That's my preferred method of sweet disposal after halloween. Did anyone else watch that Old Bailey drama thing last night? Rather enjoyed that. The MP's wife is scrummo, which helps. |

I used to work 50 miles from home, and had no transport. Two hours each way using public transport for an eight-hour shift, and you soon get very fed up with the world. Sixty hours of work* for forty hours of pay isn't nice, especially when travel costs came from your own pocket and took up a quarter of your weekly wage. A year of that, and you wouldn't be surprised at how depressed I got. *I've always counted travel time as work time. It's certainly not time to myself. |

I would like the Sky Player on 360, but I can't even use it on PC. It doesn't recognise my password, then when I phone up to reset it they think I've got my mother's maiden name wrong and won't hear anything to the contrary. |

Quote: The county borough was formed on 1 April 1996, by the merger of the former Mid Glamorgan districts of Rhondda, Cynon Valley and Taff-Ely (with the exceptions of Creigiau and Pentyrch, which were added to Cardiff). Its name reflects all these, and thus also the rivers Cynon, Rhondda and Taff.
