      I built a google map page today to get a geographic representation of the data and what struck me is the very square nature of the void north of Manchester and to the east of Newcastly type areas.

      I know that there is less of stuff up there but did they really plan England with such straight lines or is my data wrong? Or do they all walk, or just not drive.

      Ta.

                There are, but if he means the other one he truly is as thick as pig tulip and beyond help.

                    No Socialist Government conducting the entire life and industry of the country could afford to allow free, sharp, or violently-worded expressions of public discontent.
