    "Have you seen the refuse collectors?" "No. But follow the rubbish left on the floor and I'm sure you'll find them" I am now definitely sick and tired of all the cr*p our bin men leave behind them after the visit. It's simple. If you drop it PICK IT UP!!!!!!!!

      My observation is that a lot of folk simply let go of cans, bottles etc and gravity is to blame for their litter being on the footpath etc.

      After installation don't forget to turn off all the privacy switches. That will stop your PC sending a lot of info to Microsoft although probably not all.

      Your data is probably already held by various hackers and the People's Liberation Army of China....

      Look at this site, http://www.slate.com/articles/technology/bitwise/2015/08/windows_10_privacy_problems_here_s_how_bad_they_are_and_how_to_plug_them.html, to find some of the more obscure locations to turn of privacy switches and keep the minimum amount of data going to Microsoft.

      Michael Palin mentions the closure of the great central. It wasn't part of the beeching axe, He said it should be kept open.

    Don't you just hate it when you have just spent 30 minutes fettling a ground signal back blind for it to go pinging off into oblivion as soon as you open the pliers holding it.:-(

    Don't you just hate it when you take a picture of work you are doing and all it shows is the marks, errors and missed paint that you thought you had found.

      such a wonderful, nail-biting, exciting, down to the wire piece of theatre and by all accounts the US attitude is typical 'big team' victory or shame. everyone involved in this should be celebrating a fantastic contest.
