Muse - Esther McAdams
Age: 21
Occupation: Travelling Artist / Busker
Lives: Officially at her parents’ house, unofficially in the back of her 1960s, bright yellow, Volkswagon Camper.
Positive Traits: Creative, fun-loving, idealistic
Negative Traits: Careless, non-committal, scatterbrained
Family: Mother, Father, Sister - Grace (30)
Background:
Esther’s parents only wanted one child. Ten years after Grace was born, Mrs McAdams discovered that she was pregnant, unexpectedly, for the second time. Although not part of their life plan, the McAdams’ saw their second daughter as a gift from God.
The oldest daughter, Grace, was intelligent and found everything academic a breeze. She was a part of student council, aced all her exams and sped her way through medical school. Now, at 30, she’s a successful doctor, and lives in a fancy neighbourhood with her surgeon husband. Esther, on the other hand, always struggled with the academic side of school and hated studying. Esther’s talents laid in the creative arts and she excelled in music and art. Somehow, she managed to scrabble her way through school with reasonable grades, but college and work was not something on the cards for her. As soon as she left school, to her parents dismay, Esther packed up her van with her guitar and her paints and hit the road, to enjoy the life of sin that her parents worried she was living.
Travelling the country, Esther made some big bucks selling her paintings at galleries and craft fairs. When times were hard and sales were slower, she busked and drew caricatures for tourists. She paid her own way - and never had to ask her parents for help - until now.
Esther’s pride and joy, her 60s camper, nicknamed Ducky, hit some mechanical issues that were well out of her price-range. She made her way home to her parents’ house, practically begging them for the money to fix her beloved Ducky. The agreement? Yes, they would help her - but she had to stay home until Christmas. Desperate to save her van, Esther agreed, even though the prospect of seven months living at her parents’ house seems like hell.

Nokia, BlackBerry, Palm — We should stop trying to revive dead phone brands
Nokia, BlackBerry, Palm — We should stop trying to revive dead phone brands
Opinion post by

Old is the new new. It’s an adage that has worked to great effect in several industries. Fashion, for example, always comes full circle. Volkswagon’s revival of the classic camper van is another example of the ever-lasting appeal of some ideas. But an idea isn’t representative of a brand as a whole.
A brand is the sum of its successes and failures.
A brand is made…

i was goin alongside a loch the other day and saw this lil classic volkswagon camper van just chuggin along probably sight seeing and checkin out the beatiful loch.... with a MASSIVE traffic jam just packed behind them
if u come to scotland and want to do some sightseeing, awesome!! please come and take your time and enjoy the magnificent scenery! but also please dont do it on a very busy trunk road k. some roads in scotland esp to the north and in rural areas are deceptively small and quiet but are actually high traffic volume roads, they're just so old and rural they havent been updated to reflect that so just be considerate.
also i guess just remember the speed limit? this is the second time ive seen someone doin approx 30 on a 60 mph road 😱
