The Internet Watch Foundation (IWF) has reversed the decision, made a couple of days ago, to block a page on Wikipedia which linked to what it described as a potentially illegal image (a view not apparently shared by Channel 4 News, which downloaded a copy in order to broadcast it, albeit with the naughty bits blurred out).

Hello! 9 months since the last post? Crikey.

After a mains water pipe leaked into a gas main, a hundred homes in Kent are still without gas supplies. Over 130,000 litres of water have already been pumped from the gas pipes.

The National Trust is to give its 54,000 staff and volunteers the 29^th of February off to make their lives more environmentally friendly. They'll be expected to report to managers how they spent the day being greener.

P&O are ensuring that the bottle of champagne breaks during the traditional naming ceremony for its new liner Ventura.

Following the failure of a bottle to break against the side of rival firm Cunard's ship Queen Victoria, which is considered bad luck (not to mention embarrassing), P&O have enlisted the help of the Royal Marines to ensure the bottle smashes.

Jeremy Beadle has died in hospital after being admitted last week suffering from pneumonia. He was 59.
