We're getting there - my wife's Fybromyalgia has flared up - coinciding in a change of medication - new drugs seem to be turning things around.

This set was inspired by this thread on the BB ( https://bb.oolite.space/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=10544 ) and all tracks will have a money theme or some disaster or end of the world theme and some just a crises in general. Not everyone will like all the tracks but should at least like some.

We once had a big 'nightmare' with the word Descent on a holiday in France:
We were wandering with a description of the route towards a cave entrance. After crossing a bridge we should take the 'descending' road on the right. So we took the road on the right that went down. Further on there were hills on the right, so there only could be up-going roads. We searched for hours, but never could find the right follow up of the route or the cave entrance that must have been within hundreds of meters from us. So finally we gave up.

Back at our cottage one of our fellows who was not with us that day, but knew his French better than us, said: Descending road means it is descending towards you, meaning an up-going road. So we had to take the next road. :twisted: (The actual french description was "rue descentante" when I remember right)

That was all written in France of course, but I now just looked up that word in an British dictionary:
dictionary wrote:
descent: coming or going down;
So even in english it seems that it could have mend both. :P : a road coming down (=upward road) or a road going down (=downward road)

@Eric, your issue wasn't mine. I had "Decent" instead of "Descent". :oops:
