Hello, my name is Ángela, I am a Spanish writer. I’m interested in the town of Ellon, near Aberdeen, as inspiration for my new book. I’m not sure if anyone is watching this video right now, but it would be really helpful for me to get in touch with someone who lives in Ellon. I'd like to learn more about your customs, your way of life, and community living. I hope to find someone who can help me soon, so if you're from Ellon and you're reading this, I would be very grateful if you could get in touch with me.

Hull's issues are self inflicted. Work shy, sticky fingered, narcotic dependant, run by organised crime and a corrupt police force to boot. I feel sorry for people who put it on their bucket list. It is a dangerous place to live. If you upset organised crime they will try and force you out of your home by bombarding it with high pitched noised, steal your motorbike; smash your windows, steal your lawn mower, send their corrupt copper friends to make false claims against you. Run by corrupt polititions. It's a place where good things, decency, justice, real law and order avoid. If you work for "organised crime" your collar might never get "felt" and if you make a complaint againt organised crime you may find your self arrested. If you come to Hull ask around to see if anybody will recomend Colin Inglis as a baby sitter? If you send information about crimminals to the police they might ignore it. Where does organised crime get its information from? Is it true that prganised crime knows the addresses of the police's safe houses and indexes of their undercover cars?

I could use some assistance. I'm traveling from Copenhagen, Denmark, to London, and I'll be landing at Terminal 5 at London Heathrow Airport. My connecting flight is also at Terminal 5, but I haven't received my gate information yet. I've only got a 1-hour transit window, and I'm concerned about the potential wait times at security. How much time should I allow for this, considering the queue for security? Any advice on how Express Parking could help streamline this process would be greatly appreciated!

Behold, one of the most overpriced destinations in Canada. Get ready to wait in line, be surrounded by huge crowds, pay a ridiculous price of anything and everything for average food, drink, and entertainment. Banff.
@Komainu959 Жыл бұрын
If you're thinking of visiting the commentator is correct to a point. It's gonna be crowded and expensive but here are some tips to easily avoid or minimize that: For me it would be too much trouble to bring all my camping gear, otherwise that's a great option. So instead I rented a room that had a kitchen so I could cook and make most of my own meals. That saved me a ton of money because as pointed out it can be very expensive. Waiting in line and huge crowds- This is also true. Some things such as Banff Gondola are expensive and crowded to the point that it's difficult to avoid. What I did was make sure those things that are going to be crowded I scheduled to do on WEEKDAYS and as soon as they open. It made the crowds MUCH smaller and pretty easy to deal with honestly. The above also rings true for hikes. Even on the weekend when I hiked Johnston Canyon...which is one of the most popular hikes around I got there at dawn and had the place to myself. Nobody else was there and we camped out at lower falls for 30+ minutes without anyone else coming around. In contrast when we got to upper falls and hiked back out there was already a line waiting for lower falls. Less popular hikes can be left for more popular times. Or in some cases you just have to hike a bit more. Lake Louise is incredibly popular and insanely crowded, but if you hike TEN minutes around it you'll be almost alone. TEN minutes folks, unless you're disabled just go walk a little. Like seriously- go look up a YT video of Lake Louise where they walk around it and notice how much the crowd thins out just a few minutes out. You can also do certain things closer to the end of day, crowds really thin out as people will be heading back to Banff or wanting to go eat dinner. Moraine Lake was still crowded but like a third as full because we went at around 1700 vs 1200.

Mark 1.15 15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel. 2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. Hebrews 11:6 6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Jesus

The street that runs up the side of squares, the harbour front, between the backs of the houses on two of the squares. I should know, I lived there! Parking is fine if you're not bothered by walking a minute or two to your front door. It's a shame we don't build like this, no traffic noise at all, apart from marine traffic.
