Do not think this twice

Do not think this twice. While your holydays in Cuba, this is a very unique opportunity to be in contact with nature, and being able to observe the flora and fauna in its greatest splendor. Do not miss this chance of being in a place that not only holds a part of the Cuban history, but an amazing beach considered one of the best in the world.

November 19th, 2008

The idea of writing this review popped into my head because the four days I spent with a woman I am immensely in love with fits right up there with some of the best days of my life. Matter of fact, I can”t think of a better feeling I”ve ever had then those 4 days spent with her other than the morning my little girl was placed into my arms and I held her throughout that day.

A flaw in PBB security

Author: Bicko

Posted: Today - 10:53 am

I would agree that most of the staff on the scanners, dont appear to be trained security guards. I know at least two of them used to work on games at the start of the season and were offered the job on the scanners, I talk to one of them every now and again.

Plus, how often is it, that you can just walk through one of those scanners, with phones, keys and a camera, and the scanner wont beep.

I dont think there is much you can do about a planned terroist attack, even trained security guards could be helpless in some cases.

I dont know if uktv company a sister company of bbc have they relesed the rights if that is the case????#

i doubt it though just ignore me as usual

Hi

Its is possible that the series was showen on a UKTV channel the BBC have a large stake in all of the UK channels or indeed there new names, Dave, Alibi, Watch ect, this is why the bulk of the content of these channels is old BBC programing. I have only had accees to thease channels now for 2 years nearly so I cannot confirlm if it was shown on one of the UK channels.

However given the information given to us in the thread that the master copys were distroyed not long after the series was shown then I would think that this was very unlikly.

Superb pictures! I love London! If you are tired of London, you are tired of life… Very Happy

Hi

Me and my other half also love London her a little more than me, the only thing I dont like about London is the pace especally on the tube, more so if your on there at peak times, something you cannot avoid if like us you like to take in a show or 2 when your there. the people just barge past on them long tunnels when you have to switch lines or are leaving at your station.

Dont get me wrong any one who knows me knows I dont walk slow myself and like to get to where i am going as quick as possible but in London its just manic, ok I admit with most of the people who are doing this its commuters wanting to get home at the end of the day but it just so gets on my wick.

But the city and all it has to offer i love except the London Eye i just cannot do it, its odd though I can go up Blackpool Tower no problems (cannot do the walk of faith and look down though), and I can go up in a light aircraft on a pleasure flight, but the Eye just could not do for some reason.

Cliff C

I agree! Whats up with these people? Walking along wired up to something and typing on their blackberries…and nobody speaks on the tube, everyone just reads their books or sits poker faced!

Well i’ve only ever done Blackpools Maze once and to be honest although a few times I did end up going round in circles, I didn’t find it too difficult … the whole point of a maze is for it to be a challenge and if it were too easy i’d seriously be having a whinge !! lol

However if i did know the maze well enough then if someone was looking desperate for help or like they were getting really annoyed chances are I would help them but only if they were obviously annoyed or distressed as I wouldn’t want to spoil their fun Smile

Yeah, there never is an option online. You’d need to book over the phone or in person I guess. Even then, I wouldn’t say it’d be in any way guaranteed. It is usually, as you say, pot luck!

I stayed in a TravelInn once, and due to lack of rooms we got upgraded to a family room with a balcony. But the balcony was locked, I guess because we’d paid normal price Very Happy

Does the Travelodge even have sea views? I kinda presumed all the rooms would be facing 90 degrees from the sea. Even if you could see down to the sea, isn’t the Sandcastle in your way?!

If you are looking for a wise investment in the world of real estate, then consider purchasing a Santa Cruz beach house. Why are beach houses in this area a wise investment? First, these properties always increase in value, and second, they represent a potential source of residual income.

A flaw in PBB security

Author: BPBSecurity

Posted: Today - 05:52 am

where to start, where to start.

First off, sorry it’s taken so long for me to get the previously sent pm to direct me here. I actually quit the job before the end of the season and had a little holiday, so here we all are.

Secondly: I’d propose that the topic title should be changed to: "One of the many many flaws in BPB Security." Trust me when I say there are many.

The main thing to realise is this: the people employed on the security "team" aren’t trained professionals. No matter what they think (I include myself in this bracket) no-one receives any relevant training that would help avoid any serious terrorist attack to the park (not withstanding any so-called previous experience gained in other employment - such as the military etc).

To sum it up even more simply: Hardcore domestic / international terrorist, most likely with years of military training, not to mention the "specialist" training they’d get for such an attack, vs a seasonal, 6 per hour dis-interested security guard, whose main interest for being in said role is that it means they’re not a ride operator.

Please read the above paragraph again and again until you reach the right conclusion.

As far as the security scanners go (and if I’m right in my thinking, the young lady who posted earlier has a name that begins with "N"…..) can you imagine doing the same repetitive thing over and over and over and over and ov…. you get the idea. The thought of being stuck doing that terrifies me. Probably because I think it’d drive me mental, but who knows.

I can’t say I blame them for being lax, I know I couldn’t do it for an hour (on the occasions when I’ve hung about to help out) never mind anything up to 12. Again though, they’re not government trained experts, I doubt most (if any) of them cared about little more than what time they escaped, or how much they’d get paid at the end of the week.

The attitude of some members of the security team has always been a source of amusement for me. I don’t claim to have the most customer-orientated attitude, but then again to coin someone else’s phrase, that place is for the most part like a holding pen for the Jeremy Kyle show (present company of course, excluded).

Still, some of the ways I’ve seen situations handled are, for want of a more suitable derisory term - laughable. Still, let’s not get too personal, huh.

I’m not sure what else I can say right now (it IS ridiculously early in the morning, though) but I’d like to finish with this:

Adrian wrote:
Of course security matters, however the issue of security letting somebody they know through the barriers doesn’t. In order to stop a terrorist security at PBB would need a root and branch reform to have a cat in hells chance. In its current guise it is only just better than a chocolate fire guard.

This is the single post in this entire thread that sums it up perfectly.

The security features that are in place are all well and good when it comes to your average scrote from Barrow-In-Furness that’s had one shandy too many, your average local running a wristband scam or whatever, but in the event that the place was ever identified as a TRUE target (over several hundreds of better placed and more high-brow targets within this country) then you all need to realise that we’d be in serious trouble.

I’m taking questions now Very Happy

i couldnt help laughing at some of the above comments, bad publicity indeed,
90 percent of that show was staged, as is most "reality" tv. if you look past the obvious it actually reflects pleasure beach in an extremly good light, which is pretty much what the brief was, according to the production notes. job done.
you do realise it was a scripted drama practically in every sense, well the scripts are real enough. as are the direction notes, the public for the most part are just that, the public

Great pics Colin!

We went on it a few years back, it was good fun. Doesn’t half let you see the amount of smog that permanently hangs over London though!

I really like London, but can only take it in small doses. Like Cliff, I just feel that there are altogether too many people charging about as if their lives depended on it. It’s stressful just watching them Smile

My favorite run during pre-season was always the beach run

November 18th, 2008

My favorite run during pre-season was always the beach run. We would get dropped off at the north end of the beach, and then our ride would drive 15 miles down the road and buy a bunch of donuts and bagels for us and fill up the water jugs and mix up some Gatorade. Most of us would arrive within an hour and a half to two hours, and we”d play around in the ocean before heading back to our camp for some more substantial food.
