Virgin Trains used to use them to rescue their trains when things had gone tits up, or to haul electrics round when the overhead line was off / down routes where there weren't wires if stuff was being dug up on the West Coast Main Line.

If you have a ps3 pick up Metal Gear Solid: Legacy Collection (No Artbook)

It's pretty much metal gear solid 1 and 2 remastered to HD aswell as 3 and 4. Kojima is the bees knees and the whole metal gear solid universe is great, Kojima style is super serious, cheesey, cool and funny. It works really well, if you haven't played any of the past Metal Gear Solids just let it be known Kojima will troll the gently caress out of you. For example in Metal Gear Solid 1 there is a boss you are unable to beat as it predicts what you're going to do, so you take your controller out and put it in the player 2 slot.

Or where you fast forward the clock on the playstation so a boss dies of old age etc (but there is other ways to kill him, its just lol that you can do that)

ignoring all the nes and SNES stuff like snake eater, the main games go mgs 3 (1964), mgs peace walker (1974) mgs ground zero (1975), mgs 5 (1984), metal gear solid (2005), mgs 2 (2007/9) then metal gear solid 4 (2014), theres rising revengeance (2016/18) but that was platinum games and not really much lore apart from abit on raiden

I recommend playing them in order of release though (so mgs1, 2, 3, 4), once you finish 5

An adhesive is any substance applied to the surfaces of materials that binds them together and resists separation.[1] The term "adhesive" may be used interchangeably with glue, cement, mucilage, or paste.[2]Adjectives may be used in conjunction with the word “adhesive” to describe properties based on the substance's physical or chemical form, the type of materials joined, or conditions under which it is applied.[3]

The use of adhesives offers many advantages over binding techniques such as sewing,mechanical fastening, thermal bonding, etc. These include the ability to bind different materials together, to distribute stress more efficiently across the joint, the cost effectiveness of an easily mechanized process, an improvement in aesthetic design, and increased design flexibility. Disadvantages of adhesive use include decreased stability at high temperatures, relative weakness in bonding large objects with a small bonding surface area, and greater difficulty in separating objects during testing. [4] Adhesives are typically organized by the method of adhesion. These are then organized into reactive and non-reactive adhesives, which refers to whether the adhesive chemically reacts in order to harden. Alternatively they can be organized by whether the raw stock is of natural or synthetic origin, or by their starting physical phase.

Adhesives may be found naturally or produced synthetically. The earliest human use of adhesive-like substances was approximately 200,000 years ago.[5] The first references to adhesives in literature first appeared in approximately 2,000 BCE. The Greeks and Romans made great contributions to the development of adhesives. In Europe, glue was not widely used until the period 1500-1700 CE. From then until the 1900s increases in adhesive use and discovery were relatively gradual. Only since the last century has the development of synthetic adhesives accelerated rapidly, and innovation in the field continues to the present.
