Did anyone else wonder, while looking at the 'Top Stories' to the right, why Vince Cable had gone to Japan's nuclear plant?

Probably not - but i did check.

Rail Plans? Has Norton Bridge been decimated yet?Or did Chebsey get the line of fate?

( actually thats the wrong use of a word innerit - I only found out recently that decimated means 10 per cent buggered up, although common useage would imply it means a lot more )

Interestingly said minister was born in Stafford, despite that advantage he'd be somewhat pushed to read all 49,814 pages of it.
On a footnote I personally would have added another 186 pages to the report......

Birmingham City Council have a copy of the Bill - it's 21 feet high and weighs 1.3 tonnes - apparently

With a consultation period of 60 days it means 800 pages have to be read each and every day to finish it

Signed copies are available in The Chains or from Amazon
