"Comfortable and good value."
Reviewed Jun 17, 2013
Peter S | Edmonton
After a long day of traveling, it was very refreshing to arrive here and chill in a nicely appointed room. We rented a vehicle so the airport was not a concern to us, but it was nice to know that the free shuttle was available. The bed was comfortable, the room was clean, and in spite of being in a busy area, I found it to be quiet and nothing disturbed my sleep. Good restaurants were close by. We were here for 2 days. I would have no hesitation in staying here again. The staff were friendly and helpful.

ChrisfromTO | Toronto, Ontario
I booked this hotel for the last night of vacation before flying home. The price was right and it was close to the airport. Room is clean and all the necessary appointments are here. Small refrigerator, coffee maker and wifi. Beds are fairly comfortable and I like the large bathroom with a shower stall instead of a tub. There is also a free airport shuttle. There is a very small indoor pool and included hot continental breakfast. There is juice, cereal and the obligatory waffle maker. There is also a pre-made egg and cheese on an English muffin. I wouldn?t bother with that one, it wasn?t very good. The hotel is not in a tourist area and doesn?t have a lot of things to see or do nearby but the SkyTrain is just down the street which can take you downtown. If you feel like eating Asian cuisine you are in luck, there are a multitude of restaurants within walking distance. If you would like something else you will have to drive. All and all it is a pretty good hotel for a night before or after transiting. I would stay here again if I can get the same price the next time I come to Vancouver before a cruise or before a flight.

"Center of Richmond, good breakfast, good hotel!"

Yuheng Z | Victoria, Canada
The La Quinta Inn includes a non-24 hour shuttle service, and the shuttle is a Chrysler Town&Country mini van. I do not recommend bringing 5 or more people in the airport shuttle. But the hotel is located in Richmond which is near to the Lansdowne mall which is a pretty big mall and good for shopping lovers. Lots of little shops and restaurants near the hotel. The breakfast was great! You can make your own waffle, there is toast, egg mc-muffin, cereal and lots more! It also includes a swimming pool and hot tub. Also a fitness room is included with both a outside view. I recommend staying at this hotel for 1-2 days then leaving for the airport or for the ferries in Tsawwassen. Good hotel for a very good price!

Great location for airport access. Hotel is very clean , staff was professional , helpful, and courteous . We arrived in the morning when we got off of the cruise ship. The staff had our room cleaned and ready for us before 10 a.m. so we could rest in the comfort of our room . The fridge was great , kept my fruit fresh . Great selection of Chinese and Asian restaurants close to the hotel, but other restaurants require a car or delivery . The pool and hot tub are lovely , clean . Breakfast was a great bonus , healthy choices included . This is the first La Quinta in Canada, hope they add more of them !!

I stayed here based on online reviews. Overall, ok but nothing fancy. Appreciated the in-room fridge, hot tub, access to exercise equipment and great location for accessing the Skytrain and lots of top quality Asian restaurants. Disappointments: 90's decor (not modern as promoted), worn out bathroom & room furniture, noise (from traffic, hallway & thin walls- bring earplugs, I wore mine), only one ice machine for the whole hotel, basic breakfast. My greatest annoyance was staying 2 nights and my key card not working on day 2, arms full of stuff & dripping wet, trying to get into my room (on the 3rd floor). The front desk clerk said that "it must be the credit card company's doing." More like the person checking me in did not enter the parameters correctly on the access card. Wifi was ok but had to be signed up for every 24 hours which is a pain. The elevator was super slow & tight parking as well (but free). Overall, will stay elsewhere next time. The whole place felt cheap & the price wasn't.

Glamorgan first played at Sophia Gardens against the Indian touring team in May 1967, but it was not until nearly three decades later that it officially became the county's home.
The signing of a 125-year lease in November 1995 ended the clubs 74-year search for a ground, a nomadic period during which the clubs base had at times been limited to a small office in Cardiff high street.
The area where the cricket pitch now stands has a colourful history, having once played host to a 'Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show' and 'Barnum and Bailey's traveling circus and menagerie'. One wonders whether Glamorgan's fans would secretly welcome a return to these long gone days, having suffered their team's mediocrity in recent years.
Glamorgan have played on and off at the ground since 1967, after Cardiff Athletic Club, the leaseholders at the time, had a pitch laid and spent £25,000 on a new pavilion. Sophia Gardens has staged some crucial matches in Glamorgan's history, notably in 1969 when they won the County Championship against Worcestershire in front of 16,000 people, and in 1978 when they claimed the John Player League for a crowd of 11,500 ecstatic fans.
Since Glamorgan officially took over the ground in 1995 several improvements have taken place, all part of a nine-million pound strategic plan. The National Cricket Centre was finished in 1999, the same year that the ground played host to Australia's contest with New Zealand in the group stages of the World Cup.
The ground has since become a regular international one day venue, playing host to the first one day match between England and Wales in 2002, which Wales won by eight wickets, but perhaps its most famous game came in 2005 when the touring Australians were humbled by the Bangladeshis, who recorded a five-wicket victory that shocked the cricket world.
At present the ground capacity is set at 12,000, but in March 2006 Glamorgan announced plans for further developments, including a new pavilion, media centre, grandstand and more covered seating. Behind these improvements, scheduled to be finished by 2008, has been Glamorgan's campaign for the ground to be upgraded to category 'A' status, enabling Sophia Gardens to stage Tests .
This campaign, backed by the Welsh Assembly, was rubber stamped by the ECB when they surprisingly awarded the ground the first Ashes Test in 2009. Exciting times lie ahead.

Education Advocates Look To Expand The State's Pre-K Program
By: Jamiese Price
Updated: November 16, 2012
Alabama's Pre-K program is nationally ranked, but only six percent of Alabama's four year olds have access to it.
Education advocates, including Governor Robert Bentley want to expand it. Alabama School Readiness Pre -K Task Force is asking the state to set aside $12.5 million in funding for the next ten years.
Education advocate Jeff Coleman said the $12.5 million this year would give more students access to the program.
"The goal of School
Readiness Alliance is to actual try to fully fund education for four years old
in Alabama so we're going to start there. It's a gradual process we feel like
it can be fully funded at $125 million," said Coleman.
Alabama's First Class Pre-k Program is currently in 217 classrooms across the state --including two in Dothan.

I do not know if I should use outrage or d-claw for my garchomp so any help would be nice.I want to destroy my cousons dragonite so idk if outrage with perism berry or d-claw and somthing to boost speed.
I actually would go for both Dragon Claw and Outrage. Outrage can be easily countered due to the large amount of Defensive steels. Use Dragon Claw if you are unsure if your opponent has a counter to Outrage. When all Steels have been removed by your teammates, go spam Outrage.
Outrage. Go with outrage. With 120 power, high accuracy, and 10 PP(sort of, it's actually 20-30 because it's used multiple times) it's a lot better than Dragon Claw. Plus a lum berry fixes the confusion problem.
GO FOR DRAGON CLAW! I've got an Garchomp too and it's Dragon Claw works awesomly with Swords Dance! Outrage will confuse it and sometimes its not too great if you want to use other moves in battle for type advantages.
More info: Garchomp @ dragon claw Moveset: Dragon claw Swords Dance Earthquake Dragon Rush/Stone Edge
Explination: Dragon Claw @ Swords dance is awesome since S-Dance increases attack stat. two times in a row. Earthquake for those annoying electrick types and others (Powerful too) Dragon rush (Extremly powerful with S-Dance) or Stone Edge to smash those birds! (Awesome with S-Dance too)

The Baby Fever I Just Can't Shake
I've heard of numerous people having fleeting phases and bouts of baby fever that returns occasionally or at a later time..but what happens when the baby fever lasts for over a year?
My fiance and I have been together for nearly three years and we're getting married in May and during the first couple of months of our relationship, I was very cautious about sex and making sure that we took every precaution to prevent pregnancy, simply because we didn't have stable jobs or income and we were both living with our parents at that point. Once we had been together a little less than a year, I found the idea of a creating a child with him less frightening, and more comforting and exciting and I didn't care anymore if we wound up pregnant or not.
Last January, we moved into a house of our own - perfect for a starter family: two bedrooms, a big kitchen, a big front and backyard - a home perfect for a couple with a young child. Literally, as soon as we laid eyes on the house, my baby fever increased exponentially. When we moved in, I found myself (and still do sometimes) standing in the spare room and dreaming of the day when it would be occupied by all things baby-related: where we would put the crib, the changing table, what color we would paint it, how many sleepless nights would be spent there rocking our baby back to sleep, how many days would be spent tidying the endless clutter of toys that seems to litter up the room again every time your back is turned. Then, my longing reached out further than the spare room. I began seeing things for every room. Like the living room: I know the exact spot we would put a pack and play and how much time we would spend on the floor, teaching our child to crawl and walk and figuring out new ways to make it laugh and how much more our television would be on children's channels instead of wasting away time on video games or shows and movies unsuitable for children. Thoughts turned to my kitchen: how many times I would stumble out of my bedroom and into the kitchen to make a bottle or how many messes would be made of baby food or formula or how the sink would be filled with children's dishes and baby bottles instead of two regular sized plates and two wine glasses. And lastly..the bathroom: thinking of how many hours would be spent in it potty-training my child, or how many baths would be given in that tub.
Everything in my house has turned into thoughts of a baby that I don't even have yet. It gnaws through my thoughts and begins aching in my bones that my fiance doesn't think we're ready for a baby yet..and he may be right. He's not in the career he wants to be in yet. I'm between jobs currently, starting at a different agency than the one I was originally at next week. Fortunately, I will be provided with health benefits and a full-time schedule.
There are also times when I get so scared that I won't even be able to conceive a child. How ironic would that be? Someone who wants a baby so badly that they can't even properly produce one? Ever since a little before we moved into our home, we haven't been taken the precautions anymore. We aren't actively trying...but we aren't trying to prevent it either, if that makes sense.
How long did your baby fever last before it went away?

For Kuwada, this was not one of them. Because she knew that all the preparation in the world wouldn't make a difference. "You just feel like a ticking time bomb."

NORFOLK - Oscar-winning actress Angelina Jolie disclosed Tuesday that she had a preventive mastectomy after learning she had a gene mutation, called the BRCA gene, that significantly raised her risk of breast cancer.

Jan 1 2013
With the first day of 2013 well under way, the UK is basking in the peace and quiet after raucous celebrations up and down the land - and as far flung as Afghanistan.
As thousands of people gathered in London to see out one of its most memorable years in recent history, revellers also partied on the streets of Edinburgh - dubbed the home of Hogmanay - to welcome the new year.
British forces serving in Helmand Province rang in 2013 with pipe music and party poppers, saying goodbye to the year in which the first 500 servicemen were sent home from Afghanistan.
It was a busy night for the emergency services, with some reporting a huge spike in the number of calls they received. South East Coast Ambulance Service (Secamb), which handles 999 calls from Kent, Sussex and Surrey, took 1,544 calls between 10pm yesterday and 4am this morning - a rise of more than 20% on the same period last year.
West Midlands Ambulance Service saw its peak for 999 calls between 1am and 4am. The service said it handled 1,291 calls between midnight and 5am, a 9% increase on the same period last year, while 638 calls were taken in the four hours leading up to midnight - a 15% rise on the same period the previous year.
In London, the Metropolitan Police said 96 arrests were made relating to the celebrations, with drunkenness, public disorder and assault being the most common offences.
About 250,000 spectators were estimated to have watched the colourful and noisy pyrotechnics display on the South Bank, which featured 12,500 fireworks. Many of them waited for hours to secure the best viewpoints on the banks of the Thames on what was a dry and mild night.
They looked back at 2012, with the Olympic Games and the Queen's Diamond Jubilee celebrations featuring in the display. Mayor of London Boris Johnson described the night as "an amazing end to an incredible year".
Also playing an important role in the aftermath of celebrations were the clean-up crews responsible for sprucing up the capital in time for the New Year's Day parade. Some 200 clean-up staff took just under six hours to clear around 160 tonnes of rubbish in Westminster.
The parade will see a procession of Olympic Games Makers, drummers, stilt walkers and Bolivian dancers greet 2013 as they snake their way through central London. Other celebrations included the New Year's Day dip at Whitley Bay in North Tyneside, where swimmers braved the cold water to mark the beginning of 2013.

So you think you want to live in Cincinnati? Join the growing club! This metropolis set along the Ohio River is ranked as one of the best places in America to raise a family. It's also among our nation's most affordable cities. Cincinnati apartments and rentals are known for their historic architecture and for their proximity to an exemplary system of parks. It may not be as sexy a city as New York, or as hip as San Francisco here, but Cincinnati is a place you can put down roots. If you're looking to live happily long-term, Cincy might be for you.
Living in Cincinnati
Settled in 1788, Cincinnati was the first city in the U.S. heartland to rival its big brothers on the coasts-just without as many European immigrants. Some call it the first purely American city for this reason. Cincinnati grew up along the river, prospering with Miami and Erie Canal steamboats and shipping. As the 1800s came to a close, and river traffic gave way to railroads, the city saw its premiere position usurped by Chicago. Cincinnati got its name from the Society of the Cincinnati, honoring George Washington. Our first president was considered a "Cincinnatus," i.e. akin to the role model Roman famer who, when called, led Rome.
If you're new to town, you can get oriented in Fountain Square, the center of the city. Grab yourself a bowl of famous Cincinnati chili and check out some of the other exceptional neighborhoods. Over-the-Rhine claims the largest collection of Italianate architecture in the world. Mount Adams matches winding streets with eclectic shops and eateries for a European feel. Indian Hill has been claimed by the well to do. There you'll find 1920s mansions, luxury cars, and practically nothing but single-family homes. For a more everyday sort of Cincinnati, visit Delhi Township or West Chester.
Work & Study in Cincinnati
If you've come to Cincinnati to study, you'll have a few good options. The University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati State, and Xavier University are all located within the city. If you include the greater metropolitan area, you'll also want to look at Miami University and Northern Kentucky University. When you're done with classes, you're in luck: CNN rated Cincy 4th in its list of cities for new graduates in 2009.
For those who want to find work in Cincinnati, there's also good news. Many major companies base their operations here, including Procter & Gamble, The Kroger Company, and Macy's Inc. Cincinnati's economy depends on both large firms like these, and the thousands of medium and small-sized operations that keep local money changing hands.
Cost of Living in Cincinnati
Cincinnati is an exceptionally affordable city, and that may be a large part of its appeal for you. The average two-bedroom apartment in Cincinnati rents for just $759 a month. While vacancy rates in the city used to be sky-high, they've been falling to earthbound levels of late. That means the Cincinnati secret may have become more widely known. If you find an apartment in Cincinnati you like, don't delay in renting it.
Cincinnati Attractions & Entertainment
Cincinnati isn't a trend-setting city, but it is a place where culture comes calling and where you won't struggle to find an evening's entertainment. The Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra, the Opera, the Boychoir, and the Ballet all put on an excellent show. Cincinnati Museum Center has a whole wing just for the kids. Families will also adore the Cincinnati Zoo.
If you want to cheer on the home team, the Cincinnati Reds and the Cincinnati Bengals carry the professional sports banners for the city. It's said that there are so many parks here, that every resident in this city lives within a mile of one. For some old school shopping, Findlay Market is the oldest continuously operating market in Ohio.
Cincinnati Special Events
To make the most of the seasons in Cincinnati, you'll want to keep an eye open for the city's special events. Highlights include the Cincinnati Masters tennis tournament, the Flying Pig Marathon, the Ohio Valley Jazz Festival, and the Thanksgiving Day race. There's also Bockfest, the MidPoint Music Festival, and the Cincinnati Fringe Festival to look forward to.

Questions and Answers about Chrome Front Grills
Q: What is the difference between a Grille Insert and a Grill overlay?
A: A grill insert replaces your factory front grill usually requiring you to remove the grill. A Grill Overlay snaps over your factory grill.
Q: How do I replace my front grill with a grill insert?
A: This is a question that can be answered in a few ways. If you look under the hood you should see the snaps and screws that hold it in. By removing those snaps and screws the factory grill should come right out. The grill inserts that we sell come with manufactures installation instructions to help. You can also refer to a repair manual for complete instructions for removal and installation.
Q: How is the quality of your ABS plastic Chrome Grilles?
A: The quality is just as good if not better than the factory grill on your car or truck now. The automotive manufactures use ABS plastic to manufacture their grills as well.
Q: I like the Chrome Grill overlay that I see on your site but my factory grill looks different. Will this Grill Overlay fit my car?
A: No. Chrome Grill Overlays only fit the factory grill that looks just like the overlay. They are designed to snap over the contour and shape of your factory front grill.
Q: How long does it take to install a Chrome Grill Overlay?
A: It takes longer to get the grill out of the box than it does to install it. Average installation time is under 2 minutes.

Menard to fly Wisconsin workers in to staff North Dakota store
BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — Home improvement retailer Menard Inc. says it will hire workers from its home base in Wisconsin and fly them to North Dakota to staff a store in Minot, which is near the state's booming oil patch and has more jobs than takers.
The company said in a statement that it plans to hire 50 workers in Eau Claire, Wis., where it has its headquarters, and fly them weekly to Minot, which is also in the middle of an unprecedented building boom as it recovers from record flooding last year.
Menard, which has more than 200 stores in the Upper Midwest, said this would be the first time it has ferried in workers by airplane, but it believes jetting in employees for weeklong stints and housing them in hotels "is going to be a permanent solution for as far as we can see."
Minot is North Dakota's fourth-largest city and had been growing rapidly even before the flooding that swamped some 4,100 homes and displaced thousands of residents. Its population grew from 36,500 in 2000 to about 41,000 in 2010, U.S. Census data show. City officials say the present population is nearing 50,000.
That means there's strong demand for building materials. Minot store manager Phil Graef said business is the busiest in the five years he's headed the store, the only big-box building supply retailer in town.
"We were starting to stay even with the oil boom, and then the flood happened," Graef said. "Now, we're trying to get ahead of both of those."
Finding workers to keep up has been tough, he said.
"Everybody has a 'now-hiring' sign in their window," Graef said.
Businesses struggle to attract workers throughout North Dakota, which has some 22,000 more jobs than takers and the lowest unemployment rate in the nation, at 2.4 percent, Job Service North Dakota data show. The unemployment rate in Minot is 2.3 percent.
"It's going fast and furious here," Minot Mayor Curt Zimbelman said. "As it is, there is not a big enough labor force around here, and as it gets colder there is less of one." Continued...
The unemployment rate in Eau Claire is 6.3 percent, lower than the national rate of 7.9 percent in October. Mike Schatz, the city's economic development director, said its economy strong and there are job opportunities in the town of about 65,000.
"It's not like people can't find work here — there are plenty of expansions going on," Schatz said.
But Menard spokesman Jeff Abbott said there was good interest when the company held a job fair in Eau Claire earlier this month to hire workers for its Minot store. Menard intends to train the workers at Wisconsin stores and send them to Minot "as soon as possible," he said.
Menard has offered a starting wage of $13 an hour at the Minot store, well above the federal minimum wage of $7.25 per hour, which prevails Wisconsin. It's also the minimum wage in North Dakota, but most jobs there pay more. A listing for a pizza delivery driver in Minot was advertised Thursday at $15 to $20 per hour, plus a $250 signing bonus.
Competition for the Menard jobs has been tough in Wisconsin.
Pam Weaver, of Eau Claire, said her husband, Gary, had his heart set on one of the positions with Menard in Minot but was told Thursday that he wouldn't be hired. No reason was given, she said.
"It's frustrating," Pam Weaver said. "He seemed disappointed."
Gary Weaver, who was laid off from his job as a telemarketer several weeks ago, was back at the unemployment office Thursday filling out job applications, said wife, a 55-year-old claims auditor for a health insurance company.
"Who would have thought that we'd be in our 50s and struggling?" Pam Weaver said. "We're not the only ones. We've had three different friends who have lost businesses in town in the last five years."
Zimbelman, the Minot mayor, and Menards store manager Graef said they hope some Wisconsin workers eventually decide to make Minot their permanent home instead of commuting more than 500 miles by air to get there. Continued...
But Eau Claire's Schatz has another idea.
"We would hope just the opposite," Schatz said. "We want them to bring that North Dakota money back to Eau Claire."

The Full, Combative Interview Between Mike Francesa And Tiki Barber
Tiki Barber's failure as "the next Matt Lauer" has been well-chronicled, and we took a glance at the rapid athlete to broadcaster career path here earlier this week. Tiki comes off as very defensive with Francesa, refusing to acknowledge his disappointing run as a TV personality at the end of Part I below, and even has his agent on the phone to back him up (Francesa amusingly had to tell Barber's agent, "you're not here to be his bodyguard"). First of all, let's get real, having your agent on the phone with you is weak - man up and do the interview yourself. Second of all, forgive me for not feeling too much sympathy for Tiki Barber - someone who retired from the Giants, ripped his former coach and teammates, had an affair and then left his pregnant wife for a 20-something NBC intern and babysitter, and then had the absolute gall and ignorance to compare his oppressive plight to that of Anne Frank. The same Anne Frank that died in a Nazi concentration camp. Please. Although Francesa's ego turns a lot of people off, this interview shows why he's absolutely one of the best in sports talk radio and sports media. The entire interview is worth a listen, even though it is a half hour in length, but the highlights are mostly in the first two parts below...

The nation's aviation security chief on Thursday defended his recent decision to again permit knives aboard commercial flights, despite concerns from major airlines and their flight crews, and sharp criticism from some members of Congress.
John Pistole, administrator of the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), told a House Homeland Security subcommittee that his decision would stand and would be carried out next month as planned.
He said small knives no longer pose a threat to aircraft security, which now emphasizes bomb detection.
"A small pocket knife is simply not going to result in the catastrophic failure of an aircraft and an improvised explosive device will," he said. "And we know, from internal covert testing, searching for these items, which will not blow up an aircraft, can distract our officers from focusing on the components of an improvised explosive device."
Small knives were banned along with a host of other undersized sharp objects like nail clippers, screwdrivers and cosmetic scissors, following the 9/11 al Qaeda hijack attacks on the United States.
There has been a gradual easing of those prohibitions in recent years as planes hardened onboard security and the potential threats shifted away from hijackings and more toward attempts by terrorists to bring down planes with bombs.
Still, Pistole's decision has roiled the industry. The major carriers have as a group raised concerns about the move with three - Delta, American, and US Airways coming out in opposition.
Pistole's supporters believe the rules should be more passenger-friendly and focus on bombs and other threats that can be hard to detect and be smuggled aboard the passenger cabin or in cargo.
But critics contend that even small pocket and other knives still pose too great a safety and security risk for airline crews, reminding that the 9/11 hijackers used box cutters to take control of four jetliners.
Pistole stood firm as he faced questions and criticism from lawmakers.

Surgical Separation of Siamese Twins
No birth defects have stirred the minds of people with such intensity and amazement as the birth of conjoined twins (Siamese twins). Most conjoined twins are still born, products of miscarriages, or victims of traditional rituals. The apparent incidence is recorded as 1 per 50,000 to 60,000 births. As of date 400 conjoined twins have either still joined or surgically separated in the entire world. Within the period, 1987 to 1991, a team of surgeons, anaesthetists, and nurses at the University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital embarked on the surgical separation of 3 different sets of conjoined twins namely - Pygopagus (joined by the buttocks), Craniopagus (joined by the head) and Ischiopagus (joined by the pelvis).
The Pygopagus twins was amongst a set of female triplets born (16 November, 1987) by spontaneous vaginal delivery. This birth procedre is outrightly condemned as it is engraved with high mortality for both mother and offspring. Delivery of all conjoined twins must be made by planned elective Caesarian section. Pre-natal diagnosis must be made by means of ultrasound scan, Radiology and other available investigations. At the age of 51 days, the conjoined pair were surgically separated (on 8 January, 1988). The babies (all three) are now about 13 years. The surgical success stems from adequate pre-operative study of the union and shared organs; efficient operative and post-operative management.
The Craniopagus pair (born on 9 March 1989) were surgically separated and reconstructed on 6 June, 1989 but the babies died shortly after surgery. This was a total vertical Craniopagus with an extensive fronto-parieto-occipito-temporal union. They shared an abnormal circumferential and cerebral sinus for which the surgical world has not recorded a success.
The Ischiopagus conjoined twins (born on 28 January, 1990) lived together for about one year before surgery (on 7 January, 1991). One baby died 6 hours and the other 5 weeks after surgery. In addition to other organs, they shared a single liver, pericardium and abdominal aorta. The unavailability of parental nutrition reduced their chances of survival.

Like parachuting without all the training. After a short safety briefing session, you fly to a height of approx 10-12,000 feet and safely strapped to a British Parachute Association tandem instructor, you leap into a 5000 feet free-fall. Your instructor controls the whole descent, including the parachute opening and landing.
When you arrive, you will be enrolled as a provisional member of the British Parachute Association and issued with the appropriate equipment. You will be given a safety briefing, practice some techniques required for your jump, and then take your tandem skydive from approx. 10-12,000 feet safely strapped to a BPA Tandem Instructor. If you wish to stay overnight, many parachuting clubs can offer inexpensive (but basic!) accommodation (this is not covered by your voucher). If you are interested you should enquire about this when you make your booking.
All you have to do is pay for the experience you wish to purchase and we'll send a gift pack to you or directly to the recipient. A voucher and booking information will be included in the pack so you just need to check the info and book your experience.

River Rock Bamboo
Rocks-glass-bamboo. A trio of elements that, when combined, form a statement of elegant simplicity. By balancing the form and substance of river stones and bamboo stalks with an exquisite glass vase we've created an Impressionistic tropical groove that functions as an intriguing centerpiece or accent. Water and a little light will keep this daceaena sanderiana, commonly known as lucky bamboo, healthy for a long time to come. Comes complete with polished river stones, 7 - 8" bamboo cuttings and a 6" crystalline glass vase.
