Re: And this ladies and gentlemen...

I don't believe that it is completely deterministic in the UK which are letters and which are numbers if you take into account plates which have no age numbers or letters and the fact that newly made plates have to use a font which explicitly have 0 the same as O, and, 1 the same as I. For instance, how would one differentiate between newly made plate of PMI 729 and PM1729, both of which could be valid registrations.

It also has the advanage of being useable without formal installation!

Better than EE with Freeserve

At least Tiscali e-mail holders have the option to keep their e-mail addresses. EE didn't give Freeserve e-mail holders that option. I only found out when I got an email from a company who had my address asking for a replacement prior to Freeserve's closure. It took most of day letting holders of that address that it was about to die and to use a replacement.

30 November message

So is this the real reason why the native messaging app on my BlackBerry Z10 received a message from Facebook to say that they were no longer supporting it?
