Yeah, I\u2019d definitely recommend that for a special occasion. We had a great time there. Everyone really enjoyed it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 1:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Where is it again? I can\u2019t remember.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 2:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> It is on Grayson Street only about a two walk from the station.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 1:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Oh that\u2019s good I prefer not to have to drive anywhere but I don\u2019t want to have to walk too far either.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 2: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, the location\u2019s perfect, but that\u2019s not necessarily why I\u2019d recommend it. The food\u2019s amazing. If you like fish, it\u2019s probably the best restaurant in town for that. It\u2019s always really fresh and there are lots of interesting dishes to choose from But all the food is good there.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 1:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Is it really expensive?<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 2:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> It\u2019s certainly not cheap, but for a special occasion I think it\u2019s fine. It&#8217;s got a great atmosphere and before dinner you can go up on the roof and have a drink. It&#8217;s really nice up there, but you need to book. It&#8217;s very popular as the views are spectacular.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 1:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Sounds good. So that\u2019s definitely a possibility then. Is there anywhere else you can think of?<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 2:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> If you want somewhere a bit less formal, then you could try Paloma.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 1:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Where\u2019s that? I haven\u2019t heard of it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 2:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> No, it\u2019s quite new. It\u2019s only been open a few months, but it\u2019s got a great reputation already. It\u2019s in a really beautiful old building on Bow Street.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 1:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Oh, I think I know where you mean. Right beside the cinema.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 2:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Yes, that\u2019s it. I\u2019ve only been there a couple of times, but I was really impressed. The chef used to work at Don Felipe\u2019s, apparently. I was really sorry when that closed down.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 1:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> So is all the food they serve Spanish, then?<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 2:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Yeah. You can get lots of small dishes to share, which always works really well if you\u2019re in a group.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 1:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Hmm. Worth thinking about.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 2:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Yeah. There\u2019s a lively atmosphere and the waiters are really friendly. The only thing is that you need to pay a \u00a350 deposit to book a table.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 1:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> A lot of restaurants are doing that these days. I should have a look at the menu to check if there is a good choice of vegetarian dishes. A couple of my friends have stopped eating meat<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 2:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Not sure I say the selection of those would be quite limited.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 2:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> I\u2019ve just thought of another idea. Have you been to the Audley?<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 1:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> No, don\u2019t think I\u2019ve heard of it. How\u2019s it spelt?<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 2:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> A-U-D-L-E-Y. You must have heard of it. There\u2019s been a lot about it in the press.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 1:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> I don\u2019t tend to pay much attention to that kind of thing. So where is it exactly?<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 2: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s in that hotel near Baxter Bridge, on the top floor.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 1: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Oh, the views would be incredible from up there.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 2:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Yeah, I\u2019d love to go. I can\u2019t think of the chef\u2019s name, but she was a judge on that TV cookery show recently. And she\u2019s written a couple of cookery books.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 1:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Oh, Angela Frayne.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 2:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> That\u2019s the one. Anyway, it had excellent reviews from all the newspapers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 1:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> That\u2019s will be a memorable place for a celebration<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 2: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Definitely! Obviously, it\u2019s worth going there just for the view. But the food iss<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0Supposed to be really special.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 1:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0She only likes cooking with local products, isn\u2019t she?<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 2:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Yes, everything at the restaurant has to be sought within a short distance, and absolutely nothing flows in from abroad.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 1:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> I imagine that it\u2019s really expensive, though<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 2:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Well, you could go for the set lunch. That\u2019s quite reasonable for a top-class\u00a0 restaurant. 30 pounds ahead! In the evening, I think it will be more like, 50 pounds.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Speaker 1: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At least that, I should think.

My name\u2019s Heather McCallum and I\u2019m one of the potters who work here at Edelman Pottery. Before we go into the workshop, I just want to say a bit about the craft of pottery. Then we\u2019ll have a look at the equipment and you can try making a pot of your own.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Like many people, I\u2019m sure you know that pottery as an art form is tens of thousands of years old. And we know this because it stands the test of time. Things like baskets and pictures don\u2019t survive on the earth in the same way that pots do. and even if ancient pots are found in small pieces they still provide a lot of information about the past. There no doubt that pottery has given archaeologists a fascinating insight into how ancient hills lived The shape of an artefact may have been lost but archaeologists can tell whether the pots were for, say, storage or cooking by examining the impressions on the clay, the scratches from tools, and the clay itself can reveal where the pots came from.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When I ask people why they want to take a pottery class with me, they sometimes talk about these things. Like our ancestors, they hope that something they create will also last longer than they do, that their work, whether it is good or not, might say something about humanity many years after their death. Of course, you will all have your own reasons for coming here.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As far as I\u2019m concerned, what I love most is the concentration you need to make a good pot. That focus takes you away from the stresses of everyday life. If you\u2019re elderly, it\u2019s also good exercise for hands and wrists and helps with arthritis. And of course, it\u2019s a fun activity for children because it\u2019s so messy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here at Edelman Pottery, we show you some of the basic pottery techniques so that you can use these to create whatever you wish. A gift for a friend, perhaps. Like nearly everyone who comes here, I\u2019m sure this is the first time you will have tried the art so we\u2019ll keep things simple today.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, before we move on, can I just say a word about what you\u2019re wearing? As we said in our email please remove any watches, necklaces etc and put them somewhere safe. If you have long hair do tie it back now. We provide aprons later but I trust your clothes are old but comfortable, not your favourite T-shirt or jeans.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So now we\u2019re in the workshop. Have a look around. There\u2019s a lot going on. To make pottery that will last, you need a potter\u2019s wheel, a kiln, which is basically a very hot oven where you fire the pottery, and some tools. So, first, the kiln. If you look over in the far corner, you\u2019ll see one of ours. Since their invention, kilns have changed very little, though in the past 20 years a lot of progress has been made in temperature control. Basically, a kiln removes the water from clay at temperatures of around 1000 degrees Celsius. This allows anything you\u2019ve made to set permanently in shape. It\u2019s a pretty ugly heavy object that\u2019s hard to keep in a house or flat, so most people don\u2019t have one.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You may think, can\u2019t I use my oven? Well, that\u2019s possible, but domestic ovens don\u2019t really get hot enough and eventually the clay will crack and fall apart. Some people fire pottery in a fire pit outside but bear in mind\u2026 that can be dangerous. You also need to know about safety procedures for kilns as they release toxic compounds into the air.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Every potter needs a potter\u2019s wheel. This machine is used to shape the clay into an object with circular walls or sides, such as a bowl. Its invention revolutionised the pottery industry, allowing multiple items to be produced in a day. Lastly, there are a number of different tools that potters use, depending on what they want to make. When you start, your hands can make all kinds of shapes and curves without relying on a sculpting tool. However, there are some basic tools that you will need to handle the clay on the wheel. Some look very strange and have even odder names that you may find hard to remember. Rather than go through them all now, I\u2019ll just name a few tools as we go along. We can provide these and I wouldn\u2019t recommend spending money on them yet.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, let\u2019s try making a pot of your own.

If you think about the major cities in the world, Shanghai, New York, Mumbai, London, they\u2019re nearly all built on rivers. When these cities were established hundreds or even thousands of years ago, the rivers were a big part of people\u2019s lives.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 16th century London, the quickest way to get from one part of the city to another was by river. But people also used the river for fishing, as the water then was relatively clean, and they would also go on boat trips up and down the river just for pleasure, as a relaxing escape from the noise and bustle of the city streets.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But as industries developed and populations increased city rivers suffered. The rising number of people meant there was a huge increase in the amount of sewage discharged into the rivers. Rivers had always been used for this purpose, but when the number of inhabitants was so small, that wasn\u2019t such a problem.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, as cities grew to over a million inhabitants, the impact on the rivers became more serious. In addition, other types of pollution increased, as factories were built beside the river and discharged their waste materials into the water. This got worse over time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As recently as 1957, scientists at London\u2019s Natural History Museum declared that the River Thames was dead in biological terms, as the water was too filthy to support any kind of life. But in recent years, as rivers lost their industrial function, cities have begun to recognise their true value and to take steps to clean them up.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, the River Thames is now cleaner than it\u2019s been for 150 years. These days you can see seals swimming in the water, and recently people had to try to rescue a whale, which had got lost and swam up the river from the sea by mistake. Unfortunately, they didn\u2019t succeed, but the problem was disorientation rather than the quality of the water.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Then, all around the world, riverside areas are now seen as prime sites for development. Warehouses that were once used for storing goods are now being converted into expensive restaurants and also into apartments with river views, which are in great demand and sell for astronomical prices. In Los Angeles, on the west coast of the USA, an architect has plans to revitalise the banks of the river and to make a park there which can provide facilities for sports as well as a natural environment for relaxing. It also hoped that the riverside can be used for other purposes. It\u2019s been proposed that facilities could be provided for displaying projects related to various kinds of art that have been produced by local people, for example.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the city of Paris, During the summer months of July and August, all the traffic is banned from the roads by the sides of the river, and the banks are transformed into beaches, where people can relax in deck chairs under potted palm trees, sunbathe or buy a drink or a snack while enjoying the view. But to make the most of our rivers in our increasingly crowded cities, we need to allow them to regain their original purpose and be used as a means of transport, reclaiming our streets from cars and lorries.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To do this, we\u2019ll have to shift more traffic back to the river, but this time cleanly and silently, making the most of modern technology. Already, more than two billion passengers use the ferry to travel in cities around the world, like Istanbul, San Francisco and New York, and these numbers are set to rise further. Admittedly, it\u2019s not a fast way of travelling, but neither is a car when it\u2019s stuck in traffic. Of course, passenger traffic on roads might decrease as more people start working from home, but another recent development, the huge rise in online shopping, has meant that another form of urban traffic just keeps on growing, and that\u2019s deliveries. Trucks and vans in the city pollute and double-park while dropping off parcels. Imagine using the immense capacity of shipping to take these trucks off the road. One freight barge can replace 44 large trucks, uses far less energy and causes less pollution.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When the barge docks at the riverside the parcels could be taken the last few kilometres to their final destination on cargo bikes, electric ones of course. This is already happening in the Dutch city of Amsterdam, and in the future the final stage could even be carried out by drone, although at present this isn\u2019t allowed. Wouldn\u2019t it be great to unblock our city centres in this way? Looking further ahead\u2026\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 100%;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 6.61322%; text-align: center;\"><b>C\u00e2u h\u1ecfi<\/b><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 39.1784%;
