Chorleywood - Least Used Metropolitan Line Station
We're counting down the least used stations line by line on the London Underground, this time to the Metropolitan and the quaintness that is Chorleywood.
You can download the Entry & Exit figures for all Tube Stations here: (although, it will obviously spoil the series for you if you look ahead at the figures!)
Note: The Waterloo & City Line won't be done, as it's only two two stations and it's figures are ridiculously high, because the stations are Waterloo and Bank.
There's scope though to do 'Least Used...' on the Overground, DLR and Trams.

Mavic Air on Chorleywood Common
This was only my second flight with the Mavic Air. I used auto video settings (2.7K @ 24 fps). Couple of mistakes there - I think I should have used 25fps and Manual setting would have probably helped with the rapid contrast changes, but overall I am very pleased with the result.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
The Chorleywood bread process (CBP) is a process of making dough in bread production. The process was developed in 1961 by the British Baking Industries Research Association based at Chorleywood in Hertfordshire, and in 2009 was used to make 80% of the United Kingdom's bread. Compared to the older bulk fermentation process, the CBP is able to use lower-protein wheat, and produces bread in a shorter time.
CBP is able to use lower-protein wheat because some protein is lost during bulk fermentation of traditional bread; this does not occur to the same degree in mechanically developed doughs.The process had an important impact in the United Kingdom where, at the time, few domestic wheat varieties were of sufficient quality to make high quality bread products; the process therefore permitted a much greater proportion of lower-protein domestic wheat to be used in the grist.
