Is this too much of a co-incidence after the drones?

    Something odd about this. The media are going mad about it one minute, and then silent the next. To a point where it is top headline, and then there is no headline at all.

    I've only just heard about it - through reading Charlton Life. Absolutely nothing on the BBC. But apparently Goldman Sachs have relaxed their dress code, because that's important to know.

    Well done you.

    Did you find that on the main news page? Just under the article about Goldman Sach's dress code?

    Yeah it's not in the BBC News app, but the GS clothing thing is. It is very odd but I wouldn't assume a conspiracy theory yet, rather I'd like to trust the people put in the position of looking after us to make the right call on what the public needs to know. Might be a bit naive, I accept. I just hope not. Although it's all over the papers so... a bit weird.

    Still is not, but only on the UK page, rather than top stories.

    Sending packages through the post set up to explode or catch fire is totally and utterly wrong. There is no justification for these incidents whatsoever.

    Fair point, I will pop down to the post office and collect the one I just sent to Roland then.

    I believe Roland has already "fingered" (ooo er!) CARD for this...   move on!
