John Buchan wrote The 39 Steps because he found himself in a similar position to Richard Hannay at the beginning of the play; bored, be-duodenal ulcered and stuck in Broadstairs, a place which proved a great deal more uninteresting than South Africa, where he had been working. He had exhausted his supply of airport thrillers to distract him during his recovery. And so, he resolved to write his own. What he produced was a thrilling, just-about-unbelievable-ripping-yarn; exactly the tonic he required to distract himself from the suppurating wound in his tummy. I can testify for myself just how effective it is; I first read this book as an ill teenager, and in an unprecedented and (ashamedly) only once repeated anomaly, I drank its 100 pages or so in on one sitting.
Many attempts have been made to adapt the book for television or film, however none has been so evocative as Alfred Hitchcock’s take, released in 1935. Robert Donat’s velvety good looks, Madeleine Carroll’s blonde feistiness and the dramatic backdrops, all more or less convincingly created in a studio, amounts to a spectacularly enduring and endearing adventure caper. This is the film which has been so seamlessly adapted for stage by Patrick Barlow and shall be ticked off hilariously in the Byre on Monday and Tuesday.
This play recreates the Hitchcock classic with the utmost faith. The thrilling chase sequences are all there, the Forth Bridge, the aeroplane chase, the hair-raising denouement, but with five actors playing the nigh on 120 different characters. Or something; I mean I haven’t really counted but the ratio is definitely off.
The film, nor the play, is not an accurate depiction of the book whatsoever, but Buchan loved it nonetheless. This swashbuckling adventure story is irresistible. So come along next week; If you enjoy watching the thing nearly half as much as we have enjoyed working on it, we shall be ahead of the game!

Flirt.com is a scam
Hi all, got scammed by this website. Saw that there were a couple of post informing about this but just wanted to give more details
Paid for the three day offer and with the confirmation of the subscription, got two mails from hornycontacts.com and loveaholics.com asking me to confirm my email. Didn’t pay attention and deleted them.
I immediately canceled the subscription in flirt.com without any issue and on the last day it changed to a standard membership so since it was bs site, cancelled the account as well.
So I was happy and watching a movie when I got an sms from my card provider telling me that I got a 71.78 euros charge from fry frtlsp.com. Never heard of them, so I called my card provider and cancelled my card and will request the return of the money as well.
Then I realized that maybe these two websites also by some miracle signed me up to a paid subscription… so I logged in… had to recover the passwords because they were not the one I used in flirt.com… and surprise, loveaholics.com did signed me up for a paid subscription without me being aware (pretty sure that somewhere during the signing process in flirt there was something checked and didn’t pay attention.). So I had to cancel subscription and account in these two other sites.
So, sorry for the long post but in summary…. do not use flirt.com at all!!!
Yes, FLIRT.COM it is a scamming website. It sign you on multiple websites like askme4date.com . It bombard you with emails that you receive messages, and you need to pay to see them. After you pay you see the messages. All messages are from BOTS. No real person.
It’s subscribing to automatic renewal and it’s hard to cancel renewal. They push you to a complicated scheme. I’m not even sure the renewal canceling works. After
