When he is arrested 'resistance is futile'

And and and...

As the investigation is currently under way there was a dawn raid at his omh and there was little resistance.

Police are soldering on getting evidence.

Isn't GPS offline for a purpose

So if GPS is made to be up to X meters out depending where you are this could make turning left or right very interesting. I wouldnt want to live on the corner of a road and have people landing on my driveway!

You could just imagine what a not up to date map could do to a mini roundabout/pedestrian crossing/traffic lights/cross roads. It would provide hours of You Tube style entertainment.

And all of that because people wont buy a map for £9.99 in BP including a free torch or cup.

Dragons Den

I just have this vision of Balmer and Gates sitting on leather chairs (next to Page and Brin) saying, in a Duncan Bannatyne way.

'I will give you £240m for a 1.6% stake in your company.'

Got to admit the figures just dont make sense to me.

Why the hell is Lordy of the Lordy Lord Tribesman sticking his nose in this area of the populations enjoyment.

Should he read his own 'Mission Statement' off their site and go and try and fix what the current government has completely screwed up which is higher education.

What a complete wanker. Please email me Lord Twatsman if you disagree. God I am pissed off now....

Schoolkid chipping trial 'a success'

Testing blown away....

@ 2 Billion rats in a wheely bin

You would get a sticker on the side of that bin around here saying they cannot accept this amount of rubbish.

Then you would leave it there for the next 2 weeks hoping they would pick it up next time, but at the rat these little furry friends reproduce it could be 9 billion.
