I hate the blue vans because they don’t have the luxury of cruise control and I got a decently long drive every day. A pain in the ass to have to constantly be monitoring my speed but the extra space in the blue vans is nice I guess submitted by /u/Business_Coffee_9421 to r/AmazonDSPDrivers [link] [comments]

It is the Easter weekend, which marks the start of seasonal speed limits across the Highlands. All vehicles are now limited to 30mph. This is enforced by campervans; or, if a campervan isn't available, by an airport rental car (usually a 2025 Vauxhall Corsa). If you attempt to exceed 30mph, our fleet will slow you down. The fleet has been explicitly instructed to avoid using "passing places". Special restrictions apply to: Bealach na Bà: Will be clogged up with VW Transporters until September; A87: Speeds up to 40mph are permitted, but the campervan convoy operates all the way from the Great Glen to the far end of Skye. The seasonal speed limit operates through spring and summer until the last weekend of October, when the last crusty old ex-Royal-Mail van heads back down to milder weather. Thankyou for your compliance and cooperation!

This map shows the share of income that people in each region of Europe typically spend on renting a standard 100 m² residential dwelling representative of their area. It is based on average salaries and typical housing across the region, not solely on the figures from capital cities. In other words, it reflects the general affordability of rental housing in the territory rather than focusing exclusively on the most expensive urban locations.

Hello, I’ve posted a few times here, so some of you may recognize my handle. My name is Beth. My whole life I’ve lived with multiple complex medical conditions, including a terminal neurodegenerative disorder. I’ve already outlived my life expectancy by 3 years, but I’m now in the final stage of disease and my medical team doesn’t expect I’ll make it through this year. I don’t share this for pity or sympathy, but just a little background because I think being severely disabled and terminally ill gives me a unique perspective on Taskmaster and really life as a whole. So I wanted to share my recent experience at the live show in DC for anyone who is interested. Some background first, I became ventilator dependent in fall of 2017 while pursuing my 2nd Master’s degree. My health declined a lot over the next few years but I managed to finish that degree and my friends had planned to take me to Europe to celebrate. But then the pandemic hit, which was particularly scary for me and my medical team didn’t know when/if it would ever be safe for me to travel again. By 2023, COVID had stabilized enough and I’d deteriorated enough that we all agreed if I was going to make it overseas, it had to be within the next year. So my friends started planning a trip to Paris and London to help me cross off as many bucket list items as possible. I’ve always used humor as coping mechanism and during those difficult years of isolation (I was essentially in full lock down from Feb 2020-Feb 2022), I discovered and became obsessed with taskmaster. I didn’t expect anything to come of it, but I’d never forgive myself for not trying, so as soon as our daters were set, I sent a submission through the Taskmaster/avalon website, sharing my story and asking if it would be possible to see the house. I do believe I used the phrase “your chance to make a dying girl’s dream come true” I assumed it would go off into the void or maybe I’d get a generic reply saying they didn’t do tours. But somehow my message made it to Alex Horne, who is genuinely one of the kindest humans in existence. He responded personally inviting us to the house and asking about dates so he could try to be there to show us around himself. I ended up getting super sick on that trip and had to cancel most of the activities we’d planned, but I did get meet Alex and several members of the production crew, see the house, and attend a Horne Section show/ meet the band in Leicester before ending up in hospital with MRSA pneumonia and meningitis. Alex is one of the few people I’ve met who was instantly been able to see past my disabilities and all the medical stuff I’ve got going on and connect with me as a person. We’ve kept in touch for about two years now, which feels crazy. It’s probably the strangest friendship I have, but I’m so grateful. 😂 I’d hoped to attend both of the series premieres in NYC, but ended up in hospital both times. So when I found out about the tour, I wanted desperately to make it to one of the shows. DC was the best option as I live in Virginia and traveling any distance is incredibly difficult these days. When the tickets sold out in minutes I was devastated. I quickly came here to Reddit and found the ticket exchange mega thread that was briefly active before the scammers took over. I put out a plea, expressing how much it would mean to me to make it to one of these shows. Again, not expecting anything, but knowing I wouldn’t forgive myself if I didn’t try. That afternoon, my service dog, who is a large part of why I’ve survived so long but who had been critically ill for last 6 weeks passed away. I’ve endured a lot, but losing her was one of the hardest blows I’ve ever felt. Losing any pet is hard, but losing her genuinely felt like losing a part of me. That evening I got a DM here from someone willing to sell me a ticket for the DC show for $70. I should have realized that I was not in good headspace and asked if we could discuss it the next day. But I was so desperate for anything happy, so I transferred the money and yeah… it was a scam. I’d all but given up. Then I got one more notification, someone else had posted on the mega thread that they’d accidentally bought accessible tickets for the DC show. So, I sent a message to u/mt_thoughts asking for more information, then turned off my phone and just tried desperately to disassociate and get some sleep. The next day we connected, I was so afraid I was going to scammed again. But she ended up being so kind and gifted both tickets to me so that I could go and have a friend come with me to help out. Something that would end up being an absolute lifesaver! I messaged Alex to let him know I’d be coming to the DC show and we started discussing trying to meet up beforehand. The timing could not have been better. I volunteer for a human rights nonprofit and we had several events in DC this past week, so I was going to be traveling there the week of the show anyway. There was a lot of back and forth on both ends. We both wanted to meet and each had limited control of our schedules. We ended up getting a brief meeting just before the show. My friend, Pat, and I arrived first and waited in the lobby of the building adjoining the theater. A security guard came over and told us we couldn’t be there, so we explained why we were there. She went and got two theater employees, who clearly did not believe us when we said we’d arranged a meeting with Greg and Alex. They asked for proof, so I scrolled my messages with Alex and found where he said he’d given my name and number to the tour manager. So then they went off to find Paul, the tour manager. He came out a few minutes later, confirmed who we were and that we could in fact wait there. 😂 A little bit later, Greg and Alex arrived, Alex leaned down and gave me a hug and Greg reached to shake my hand. I’m legally blind. I have no functional vision in my right eye and only a little residual vision in my left. I can’t see much detail, and I can’t see any detail beyond a couple feet. Greg is so tall, that his head was outside of my visual field. I explained that he was the first person I’d ever experienced that with and it made him laugh. I’d had a custom shirt commissioned by the very talented U/boblogiraffemonster featuring Greg’s Glastonbury quote “I don’t like standing up” and hand painted a water bottle with a bunch of my favorite quotes from the series. Greg and Alex loved both of them! Greg said he didn’t remember a lot of the quotes I’d chosen, but he got a good laugh at “please don’t take it away from me” and “suck it!” I’d intentionally left some space on the bottle and they both happily signed it for me! Amongst my myriad of medical issues, I have narcolepsy, which causes a symptom called cataplexy. This is the sudden loss of voluntary muscle control, primarily triggered by extreme emotions. Pat has seen this happen many times and I’ve described it Alex (mostly because I thought it might happen the first time we met and I didn’t want him to be alarmed). When this happens I’m still fully conscious and aware of what’s going on around me, but I am fully paralyzed and can’t respond. So while they were signing things, we were talking and laughing and then I just slumped over, slid from my seat, and face planted into the little table in front of us. Alex immediately clocked what had happened and to their credit everyone stayed very calm. However, in effort to clearly keep things light until I came around, Greg was making witty remarks that were quite funny. Which was actually super unhelpful. I can’t control how long the episodes last, but as they are triggered by emotion, if I can calm myself down, I can usually come around faster. So I had to use every ounce of willpower to ignore Greg and try not to be amused so that I could focus on calming my body. When I came around, they asked if I had hit my head. Which I mean clearly I had but not that hard and no way was going to admit that I’d given myself quite the headache or let any medical issues stop me from going to the show that night (I’ve already had over 2 dozen concussions, so 🤷🏻‍♀️). Instead, I resorted to humor. I told them that in an attempt to reduce how many strokes I’m having (I have a condition that causes recurrent strokes, 15 in the last year, and one my narcolepsy medications is known to exacerbate it) we reduced the dose of my narcolepsy medication. It’s a delicate balance and (paused to gesture at body still lying like a ragdoll on the ground) clearly we got it wrong. They both laughed which felt very rewarding. I’d asked Greg if we could get a picture standing together. I’m only 4’10” so I thought it would be funny. He agreed and said he loved height-based comedy. My muscles are always weak, so I was already going to need help standing for the photo, but after a cataplexy episode (especially one where I knock my head) it takes a while for everything to fully come back online. Alex suggested we do the photo seated, but I knew some of the comedic effect would be lost as it is primarily my little t-rex arms and legs that are disproportionately short. So they helped me get myself wedged between a support pillar on one side and Greg’s massive frame on the other. Paul took a ton of photos and I’ve included my 2 favorites. The first is a good one with all of us actually looking at the camera, but the second is my favorite. Alex is looking over at us laughing as I’d started to lose my balance and Greg caught me and said something to the effect of no more falling. They got me safely seated again, and then Alex said there would be a part of the show where they asked everyone to stand, but that I didn’t need to. Greg looked at me and said, “In fact I forbid it. I forbid you from standing during the show.” Then they had to leave to go do sound check. It was a brief, chaotic, joyful meeting and I couldn’t have asked for anything more. After they left, I chugged my second large coffee in less than an hour. Consuming massive quantities of caffeine is one of the ways I self medicate to reduce my narcolepsy symptoms. Pat and I got to the theater and checked with box office to see if we could get seats closer to the stage. While the accessible seat were ideal from a physical perspective (and in retrospect definitely would have been safer), they were in the very last row of the ground level and I couldn’t even see the stage from that distance. We managed to get 2 seats near the front on the far house right. I’d have to transfer out of my wheelchair but I’d have a chance at being close enough to see, so we took them. When I got inside, the merch line had already stretched up multiple flights of stairs. I felt bad but clearly I had no way to go to the back of the line. So I went to the bottom of steps and asked if I queue there. Everyone was so kind! They actually just had me go straight up to the table. I was able to get a set of the pins and the keychain which my little Julian Patatas (pictured above trying to get me to pack him in my duffel) now thinks is his own special treasure. He was so mad that I left him with a cat sitter instead of bringing him along to DC that I’m happy to let him get some joy from the keychain. I was using a rental chair while in DC and it didn’t handle the grade of the slope in the theater very well. So I more slid than rolled down to the front. Nearly everyone in that section had called and gotten last minute tickets. So when I explained why I was trying to get closer people happily played musical chairs with me, and I ended with a left aisle seat on the front row! It made transferring a lot easier and gave me an obstructed view of the stage. I sat next to a super kind young lady named Emma. I meant to exchange contact information, but for reasons that will become obvious forgot at the end show! If you are Emma or know her, I’d love to get in touch!Before the show, we were all geeking out about various things we’d made or found online. I showed off my water bottle. People obviously noticed the signatures and asked how I got them. I didn’t know how to explain that I met Greg and Alex before the show without explaining that I’d met Alex over a year ago and I don’t know how to explain my relationship with Alex without explaining that I’m dying. So I found myself repeating, “Well, the thing is… I’m dying.” Only at a taskmaster show does this not immediately kill the conversation. After hearing this a couple time, Emma cracked up and said she couldn’t believe how casual I was being about it. Before the show I also explained to all my seat mates about my limited vision and that if I can I like to use my phone to zoom in and see what’s happening on stage, but I told them that if it was distracting or anything to tell me and I’d just listen. I don’t ever want to prioritize my access over other people’s. I’ve also explained how I use my phone this way to Alex and he was glad that such a simple access hack existed and was happy for me to use it at the show. When they came out on the stage the atmosphere was electric. I’ve always had increased spasticity when I get very excited, but I hadn’t realized how intense it had gotten. And that excitement didn’t fade, so for nearly 3 hours straight, I just spasmed and flailed around. Because my respiratory muscles are also very spastic, anytime that I laugh hard it turns into a bronchospasm. This is a spasming of the muscles in/around the airways and it turns a laugh into coughing and wheezing. This used to only happen when I was acutely ill but now it happens even at my baseline. So, while in theory all I had to do was sit there, I was physically exerting myself to an extreme degree. During the Q&A, I had ushers come up to me multiple times and tell me that I couldn’t record the show. I tried to explain that I wasn’t and that people doing the show knew what I was doing. I took a few photos and short clips (as I’ve seen many others have) but over 99% of the time I was just using it for access. Eventually I got annoyed and started just trying to used my phone when it seemed something visually important/funny was happening on stage, but it’s frustrating because often short bits are missed this way. When it came time for the audience tasks, I decided to participate. I figured my odds of making it on stage were extremely slim, but if I did, I was confident we’d find a way to make it work. I correctly assumed they’d do primarily live studio tasks and most of those would need little no modifications to accommodate a wheelchair user. Alex and I have even chatted about how my disabilities might be advantageous in some tasks, like using my ventilator to have a very directed air stream in the blow stuff off the table task. The hardest part would have been getting myself and the wheelchair on stage. I didn’t catch the word play in the phone number task, so failed that one. My strokes have destroyed my stort term memory, so I got out on the first round of the red/blue memory challenge. That left the airplane task. My brother is an aeromechanic and has taught me how to make a decent paper plane. With that and being in the front row, I thought maybe I had a chance, though very slim since throwing is certainly not a forte. Then I realized I’d lost my pencil so I got down on the floor to feel around for it. I found it, made my plane, and managed to hoist myself back up into my seat right as Greg said to throw. I then got pelted planes, panicked, and fully fell out of the seat. So I just stayed on the floor until intermission. Given how difficult it had been to get back in my seat the first time, at intermission, I thought it would be smart to use the stage to pull myself up and then do a controlled fall backwards into the seat. This worked, but the stage was far enough away that I had to disconnect my ventilator in order to do this, which was not fun, especially because my oxygen levels were already a bit low from laughing so much. During intermission, 2 different ushers came up to me. The first told me again that I couldn’t record the show. I explained again that I wasn’t, that I was using it for access, and the people doing the show knew that. The second came up and told me that if I couldn’t stay in my seat they would have to move to the chairs in the back the theater. I apologized and tried to explain what was happening but it didn’t matter. I asked the people sitting around me if my spasms/flailing around was bothering them. They said no. I was relieved that the only people who seemed to be annoyed with me were the theater employees. I continued to try to use my phone a bit more sparingly during the second half, but also wanted to be able to know what was happening with the tasks. The ushers started coming back to fuss at me again and one of the girls sitting in my row turned to him and said, “dude, leave her alone she’s blind!” He walked away; I thanked her and laughed so hard. I was approached about 5 more times during the second half. I could tell my body was getting really fatigued, my chest was on fire and my arms and legs were aching. But then the sausage task came. And Alex absolutely lost his mind. When he called it wrong the first time, it was funny but when it continued happening and he eventually took himself offstage, I laughed and coughed so hard that my right lung collapsed (this a relatively common occurrence for me. It is a very distinct feeling and has happened often enough that I can tell when it’s happened, but this is the first time it’s ever happened because I laughed too hard). My oxygen levels started falling pretty fast after that, so I was really dizzy and felt like I was on the verge of passing out for the rest of the show. During the second to last task, an usher approached me one more time and said, “so, we talked to the tour manager. He knows who you are and what’s going on, and you’re fine. Enjoy the show.” Great, thanks! Is what I said. What I wanted to say was, could you maybe have done that in the first 30 minutes rather than the last? Then we finished the show with wibble, bibble, bam. I have very hyperactive reflexes, including my startle reflex. So loud noise, especially unexpected, make me jump and spasm so strong that it basically looks like I’m convulsing. It’s not fun. Alex’s microphone picked up his whistle extremely well. It was so loud. The first time he blew it, I was not expecting it and set me off. I thought I’d be okay after that because I knew it was coming every time someone messed up, but no. It still got me every. single. time. I managed to stay in my seat (barely, if there’d been one more whistle I’d probably have been on the ground, again), but while we took the show photo, the house lights came on and everyone started saying good bye, I just sat there in a puddle shaking. Pat went to get my wheelchair from the coat check and by the time he was back, I was semi-coherent again. He got my ventilator strapped on the back and I went to transfer, but could move my legs. Of course the theater seats have fixed armrests so I couldn’t do a slide transfer either like I normally do when my legs are to weak for a standing transfer. So we had to line the chair up at angle,move my legs over onto the footplate, and then do a very awkward transfer over. Getting into the van was even worse because that was vertical transfer. I ended up sliding over onto the floor board of the van and then having to get up onto the seat, and all of this was also significantly more complicated by the fact that I have a degree of paralysis in my right arm from my strokes. So at the end of the show, I had one limb that was functioning at normal (for me) capacity. Pat got me back to my hotel and a friend who was also staying there came up to my room to help me get ready for bed. Was the show 3 of the best hours of my life? Yes. Was it also the most traumatic thing my body has been through in awhile? Also, yes. Was it worth it? 100% I woke the next morning feeling like I’d been hit by a truck (which is not just an expression for me, as I have, in fact, been hit by a truck), I had a number of commitments I had to get through over the next few days. And each day it became more apparent that I was getting sicker. I pushed through, attended a number of protests, and shared my story at several advocacy events, despite barely having a voice after the show. I made it home Saturday just before the snowstorm hit. I’m fairly sure I have pneumonia again, but I am also very much snowed in and not sure when I’ll be able to get to my doctor. So for now, I’m just getting lots rest and snuggles with with my little Julian Patatas, who is very happy to have me home, and while he’s still only a baby (he’ll be 6 months tomorrow) I think he knows I’m sick and has barely left my side since I’ve been home. There is much darkness in our country these days. Seeing so much kindness from my fellow Taskmaster fans and hearing how wonderfully Greg and Alex were treated as they traveled here has given me some much needed hope. Thank you all for being such wonderful humans and for giving someone like me a place to feel so welcomed and accepted and allowing me to make some amazing memories in what are likely my final months. submitted by /u/Pink_Vulpine to r/taskmaster [link] [comments]

Hi! Would like to check if anyone has experience already with Destinago Transport Service? Or if you have any recommendations for van rental within Metro Manila only :) We plan to provide one for our family on our wedding. It will be from Hotel -> Church -> Reception -> Hotel. Thank you! submitted by /u/Own-Professional-188 to r/WeddingsPhilippines [link] [comments]

title. we were thinking bandago (3.7k dollars( but we saw that enterprise had options that were hundreds cheaper (3.1k dollars), priceline had one that was a thousand or two cheaper but the mixed reviews had me worried that if we broke down or hit something that they wouldnt be reliable. Im also worried about enterprise being reliable because i saw a video where a guy who has toured a lot said lots of his friends have been burnt by enterprise What is the most reliable company that still isnt too expensive? CONTEXT: we are a hardcore band with 6 people from new england touring the southeast and midwest united states. submitted by /u/craniumblast to r/TouringMusicians [link] [comments]
