    Google Earth sparks illegal pool parties

    Yep. The thing is, these "people" live with mummy and daddy or in rented accommodation generally.

    Future Publications

    Well, a briefly worded note of explanation. It still doesn't make it feel very fair being on the receiving end, though. I'm not an unreasonable bloke, and if someone had explained the legislative issues I could have understood. I was just told "that's it, sorry". That's the sin- not giving a...

    Future Publications

    )(-red I subscribed to a periodical called "digital video". It wasn't brilliant, but amongst what's available currently on the subject it was o.k ish. They've gone under and offered me a transfer to a totally spurious to interest alternative or a refund. I elected for a refund. I was told I...

    big bigger biggest

    I wouldn't try to win votes for this kind of prog as they don't tend to tell you anything, anyway. Cross-ref "Ant and Dec", they're presented by wooden people also e.g "Gadget show", "How do they do it", "Used car roadshow", "Click online". Mind you, if Trevor McDonald can get a knighthood, then...
