I think the newsworthiness of the poor woman's demise was increased by the fact that they actually had pictures of her from the previous couple of days -- "Pretty Blonde Tourist In Tears At Darwin Airport After Escaping From Bali".
I go online sometimes, but everyone's spelling is really bad. It's... depressing.

THey haven't arrived here yet, due to the horrors of privatised postal services...

John and Plasmo, I hate to criticise Your Organisation, but it's struck me lately how very lame their TV advertising is at the moment. Take, for instance, oh, just at random, the ad for the online service, that promises things like "loads of info on your favourite shows". Loads of info? Wow, I must go to that website right now! That it finishes with some hopeful-sounding rhetorical question like "what will you find there?" Well, I don't know, why don't you bloody tell me? I realise neither of you has anything to do with this, but still, it must be frustrating to have a great product and have it lousily promoted. (Or perhaps you disagree...? With the lousy promotion bit, obviously, not the great product bit.)

You lucky people to have Buffy tape smugglers!
I have to confess I didn't hear about the german woman being eaten by a crocodile- and while I don't read the newspapers I do hear the BBC news most days, so it can't have got much coverage over here. Funny how they decide what's big news, isn't it?
