        That means it's a police no-go area, like mine.

        A proper app would still show the map, but superimpose flames over all of it.

              This has happened before with these public sector web sites so it is no secret it was going to happen. They are idiots. But since they are a marketing firm, not IT, it is not surprising they fukced up.
              I would rather the system failed on the first day rather than sitting for the next 5 years with a room full of boxes running at 1% capacity because I estimated capacity based on every single media outlet in the UK supplying the URL on their front page.

                      Yes, and I see the price they cost me every month.

                      For that type of system CC is by far the worst option.
