wonderful translucency and in his new book, The Magic of
Watercolour Flowers, Paul Riley shows readers how to paint

adding figures and still life objects to their compositions, which
can lend character and personality to a painting. There are many
step-by-step paintings and useful tips and techniques throughout
with chapters on flower markets, flowers in the garden, flowers in
the landscape and a fascinating section showing how to combine
imaginative decorated still life objects with flowers. In addition,
Paul Riley shows how to use collage to create exciting and
unexpected compositions.Capturing the beauty of flowers in
watercolour has been the aim of painters for centuries and in this
book, Paul Riley, inspires and encourages readers to take their
watercolour flower paintings a step further, to make the most of

Designed for introductory AutoCAD users, Discovering AutoCAD 2020
presents a hands-on, activity-based approach to the use of AutoCAD
2020 as a drafting tool--complete with techniques, tips, shortcuts,
and insights that improve efficiency. Topics and tasks are
carefully grouped to lead students logically through the AutoCAD
command set, with the level of difficulty increasing steadily as
skills are acquired through experience and practice.
Straightforward explanations focus on what is relevant to actual
drawing procedures, and illustrations show exactly what to expect
on the computer screen. This edition features updates for the
latest release of AutoCAD 2020, projects, and test questions for
each chapter. Lessons are broken down into tasks listed at the
beginning of each section, introducing students to the AutoCAD
commands using a structured, intuitive approach and helping
students anticipate what information will be needed at each new
phase of the learning process. General Procedure boxes appear as
new commands are introduced, providing a simple overview of basic
command sequences in a step-by-step format. Detailed graphics
appear throughout the text, demonstrating what students should
expect to see on their screens and encouraging self-paced study.
Drawing problems appear at the end of each chapter, helping
students apply newly learned techniques immediately to realistic
drawing situations. This includes drawing suggestions, timesaving
tips, and explanations of how to use techniques in actual
situations. Working drawings accompany the end-of-chapter drawing
problems, appearing in a large, clearly dimensioned format on each
right-hand page, with drawing suggestions on the accompanying
left-hand page. This includes mechanical, architectural, civil, and
electrical drawings. End-of-chapter review questions to test the
student's knowledge. Discovering AutoCAD 2020 will be a valuable
resource for any student wanting to learn drafting skills.

BBC Scotland sketch comedy series introduces a cast of motley
Caledonians. Originally a radio programme, Chewin' The Fat was the
springboard from which its creators, Ford Kiernan and Greg
Hemphill, launched Jack and Victor - the central characters of
subsequent spinoff, 'Still Game'. Alongside the peripatetic
pensioners, the programme also featured such varied favourites as;
Betty The Auld Slapper who sat, open legged, retelling her
invariably pornographic wartime remembrances, Ballistic Bob, to
whom the most perfunctory task provided potential for unfettered
rage and Eric The Activist who favoured doing unto animal abusers
as they would do unto animals like pouring salt on a man salting
snails then taking flight shouting his catchphrase, 'c'mon the
slugs.'
