Ok just a general consensus and see if anyone has any interesting websites they view.
I generally just scout across fccuk,ebay,autotrader,pistonheads,hotukdeals and bbc football.
Youtube gets an occasional view.
As much as i love Fccuk and its members, there are only so many spell correction/excuse threads i can put up with.
As i am an office body atm for the unknown future i need to litter the screen of my work pc.
What do you look at? Give me some ideas.
Reuben

They haven't fallen, they've pushed down deliberately. Stripping BBC online was one of Cameron's first thank you letters to Rupert Murdoch. If it wasn't for Milly Dowler's parents who knows where we'd be right now.

Sadly dumbed down to the point of imbecility/incomprehensibility... standards have fallen since I left! ...and here's another example: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-17445688Combining the four telescopes provides "a much better zoom" WTF is that supposed to mean? I've sent in some feedback to suggest they might be saying it improves the resolution, but I am not hopeful that this will mean anything. A degree in Media Studies or Communication doesn't go that far.

As the telescopes stand 10s of metres apart, and because the Earth rotates around its axis, the light reaches each telescope at different times. That'll be news to astronomers, then... maybe like me they think it has nothing to do with the rotation of the planet and everything to do with the fact that the dishes are not colocated. Or maybe they've proved Mitchelson and Morley wrong after all these years? <cough split infinitive />

Well, I'll concede that it is highly controversial, at least. No need to be abusive, though. It's a subjective thing. People are entitled to their personal feelings about Moth News.
But to be perfectly candid for a moment, we they at Moth News just wouldn't allow your sort of thing.
