But actually, they were always pushing me to, you know, try and push myself to think about the skills that i enjoyed doing most and i actually remember one of the most valuable bits of like work experience or internships that i ever did was when my parents were like on my gap year so my year between university and in school they were like you're gonna get a job you're not just sitting at home waiting and i was like sure um so i got this internship at a local magazine publication in tunbridge wells which was basically selling classified ads, which are like two by two adverts in the back of a local publication to people around Tunbridge Wells.

New centres they may be—compare Hindhead, for example, in many cases—but also it may be in many cases the more healthy and picturesque of the existing small towns will develop a new life.
John TrevithickNARRATOR
84:57
Already, in the case of the London area, such once practically autonomous places as Guildford, Tunbridge Wells, and Godalming have become economically the centres of lax suburbs, and the same fate may very probably overtake, for example, Shrewsbury, Stratford, and Exeter, and remoter and yet remoter townships.
John TrevithickNARRATOR
85:17
Indeed, for all that this particular centripetal force can do, the confluent residential suburbs of London, of the great Lancashire-Yorkshire city, and of the Scotch city may quite conceivably replace the summer lodging-house watering-places of today and extend themselves right round the coast of Great Britain before the end of the next century, and every open space of mountain and heather be dotted, not too thickly, with clumps of prosperous houses about school, doctor, engineer's, book, and provision shops.
John TrevithickNARRATOR
85:49
A third centripetal force will not be set aside so easily.
