Yes the car didn\'t have the handbrake on but the garage is fairly level, with no discernable slope.

He had a soundtrack which he used to good effect. He got a thumbs up.

Her show was based on her experience of her mental breakdown and depression. It was a very professional production and she combined her humour with her friend Judith on the piano who sang songs that created a symbiotic feel to the whole event. It was humourous and moving at the same time which is a difficult balance to maintain.\r\n\r\nTo finish the day we quickly booked up to see Mark Dolans, a stand up comedian who apparently has appeared on Channel 4. He was clever, confident in his dialogue with the audience but it wasn\'t a laugh out loud experience. I read somewhere recently that our appreciation of stand up comedy has been spoiled by programmes like \"Live at the Appollo\" because this gives edited highlights and we start to think that every comedy show is full on belly laughs every second. Mark Dolans was probably very good but he didn\'t rise to our expectations. We expect a comedian to be clever and laugh out loud!\r\n\r\nOf course all of the above events were surounded by street theatre, music, comedy, magic and juggling.

The events continue late into the night and some of the venues remain active until 3 am, way past our bedtime.\r\n\r\nTomorrow will be another full day with several shows already booked.', 'Edinburgh Day 3 (Monday)', '', 'inherit', 'open', 'closed', '', '139-revision-9', '', '', '2011-08-09 20:33:32', '2011-08-09 19:33:32', '', 139, 'http://pigyard.com/wordpress/?p=155', 0, 'revision', '', 0),

Normally at the end of the summer we have been doing quite a bit of preparation however this hasn\'t been much of a summer and we certainly hate cycling in very windy weather. So far we\'ve done a couple of 30+ mile cycles which have left us fairly exhausted however it\'s the thought of then doing another 20 miles that is daunting.\r\nA recent cycle from Rothersthorpe to Daventry took us along a route with some serious hills against a steady 15 mph wind. Of course the idea of cycling into the wind should mean that the wind is behind you on the way back but it never seems to work out that way. There was a particularly steep hill from Newnham to Daventry that found us both pushing our bikes and even that was quite a struggle. This weekend looks as though it\'s going to be windy again, particularly Sunday when the Met Office are forecasting gale force winds so we\'re planning to get up early on Saturday morning and cycle into Towcester and back, a total distance of 16 miles. I\'ll keep you posted on how our efforts go right up to 25th September when we hit the road in earnest.\r\nIf you haven\'t already made a donation then you can do so by visiting <a title=\"Steve &amp; Jane\'s Sponsorship Link\" href=\"http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/Stephen.Jane_McCarthy\" target=\"_blank\">here...</a>', 'Cycling Long Distances', '', 'publish', 'open', 'closed', '', 'cycling-long-distances', '', '', '2011-09-09 17:34:50', '2011-09-09 16:34:50', '', 0, 'http://pigyard.com/wordpress/?p=224', 0, 'post', '', 0),

There are too many variables and therefore the control of the whole process is quite fraught for someone with OCD. After a several days of depression the morning arrived when we had to pack and head for Birmingham to catch our Flybe flight. All went surprisingly to plan, no hold ups on the motorways, we found the car park with no diversions and walked straight through security.\n\nI think it was Nick who said it would be a turboprop and he was right, as always. It\'s always a little disconcerting to see propellors on a plane these days as we\'re so used to jets but our little aircraft did what it was designed for and we were landing at Edinburgh within an hour.\n\nWe had a brief wait for our single piece of hold luggage before we made our way outside and jumped into a taxi that took us to the flat that would be our home for the next week.\n\nAfter unpacking we went to buy some essentials from the local supermarkets, one is never enough so we visited both Tescos and Sainsburys for good measure. Then a quick bite to eat sitting outside a local cafe under an awning while the rain drizzled down. It then rained and rained while we wandered through the familiar streets of the Old Town. We picked up our prebooked tickets, very efficient service, and finally made our way back to the warm dry surrounds of the flat.\n\nIt was a busy day...', 'Edinburgh Day 1 (Saturday)', '', 'inherit', 'open', 'closed', '', '124-autosave', '', '', '2011-08-26 18:38:52', '2011-08-26 17:38:52', '', 124, 'http://pigyard.com/wordpress/?p=221', 0, 'revision', '', 0),

We\'ve made an initial offer of £250k which has been rejected but we are close to agreeing a figure.

We have to try to resolve some significant conundrums about who to contact first. Do we engage a solicitor before we know how we\'re going to divide the land up which will require input from an architect and of course whatever we do has to be agreed with the local planning department. Perhaps we need to undertake a critical path analysis with the key decision points. I think I might be in my element with that. Of course the future is challenging but that\'s partly the point of doing this in the first place.\r\n\r\nThere is a danger that as we head into our third age we dig ourselves deeper in a happy, familiar rut with few challenges and it\'s the challenges that keep you young and active.', 'Market Rasen Moves Forward', '', 'publish', 'open', 'closed', '', 'market-rasen-moves-forward', '', '', '2012-09-08 11:56:03', '2012-09-08 10:56:03', '', 0, 'http://pigyard.com/wordpress/?p=256', 0, 'post', '', 0),

When I grind my boot heel into the floor it’s connected to when I went clubbing in Berlin. Losing yourself in the middle of nowhere around a fire is no different to losing yourself surrounded by hundreds of people on a dancefloor.” KT Tunstall</span>', 'KT Tunstall', '', 'inherit', 'open', 'closed', '', '245-revision-4', '', '', '2011-11-02 11:59:20', '2011-11-02 11:59:20', '', 245, 'http://pigyard.com/wordpress/?p=250', 0, 'revision', '', 0),

It\'s a film with an excellent combination of character development, plot exposition and dramatic action. Jane asked me at the beginning why it <img class=\"alignright\" src=\"data:image/jpeg;base64,[encoded data, 8576 characters]\" alt=\"\" name=\"3cPHYogoEIeDDM:\" width=\"60\" height=\"59\" data-sz=\"f\" />was rated 18  and it wasn\'t too long before the degrading rape scene was tastefully, if brutally acted out. Without this scene the character of Lisbeth Salander would not have been fully understood and was fundamental to not only this story but the subsequent stories yet to be translated, hopefully, into film.\r\n\r\nSo, it isn\'t a film for the feint hearted or the easily offended. When Lisbeth appears from her bedroom, having spent the night with another girl, wearing a T shirt emblazoned with \"Fuck you, you fucking fuckers\" you know this is a harsh environment and not for the squeamish.\r\n\r\nJane and I enjoyed the film very much and are looking forward to the next one which won\'t be until next year but it will give Jane time to read the trilogy.

We had a spare Monday evening (Jane wasn\'t working) and surprisingly for the week before Christmas we weren\'t under huge pressure so along we went.\r\n\r\nAfter sitting through the usual 25 minutes of adverts and trailers Jane was nodding off but not for long. The film kicked off in a loud, all action sequence and she was awake. Of course with any drama from the Sherlock Holmes genre it isn\'t going to be straightforward, if it was you wouldn\'t need Sherlock Holmes to solve it. This had plenty of smoke and mirrors. There were some parts of the film that left us wondering why Sherlock had done this or how did he come to that conclusion but maybe that was just a lack of concentration on our part. There was an overall theme to the film with Moriarty attempting to start a European war whereby he would financially benefit from the munition factories that he had acquired and there are many links to the truth behind the start of the first world war.\r\n\r\nThe scenes where Holmes mentally runs through what will happen next in slow motion and then considers all the possible outcomes are fascinating and the slow motion action sequences with heavy gunfire are superb.\r\n\r\nSo despite a weak moment by moment story line the whole film is action packed and really enjoyable.
