This is truely worrying, its a free paper that has been pushed through my parents letterbox twice, there is just enough common sense and fact in this to offset the rabid garbage and appeal to the local nutbags.

Out of curiosity as I was going to clear out my machine and reinstall everything anyway I installed a friends copy of vista onto my it just to see if it was as bad as I'd heard it was.

I managed to kill it n under 30 minutes.

I'm sticking with media centre for the forseeable future.

Well as I was going to reformat and reinstall media centre I didnt see a problem in letting my curiosity take its course. Apparently Vista doesnt have the blue screen of death, it has the completely black screen of you have totally buggered up your machine abandon hope all ye to enter here.

It is the price we pay for living in the UK.
Mind you there is some good stuff in there as well.
As founder, publisher and editor of a local Community Magazine I made a decision, at the beginning, to be as non political as possible and, apart from tweaking the County Council's tail occasionally, I have stuck to that ~ but there are times when I am tempted. It would be interesting to know who is funding this because such publications are not cheap to produce, especially if they use colour (or is that just in the on-line version?). The advertising certainly does not cover their costs if this issue is anything to go by. They are also very well informed even if they do allow personal opinions to cloud the factual reporting.
I note that it is issue 3. They will either wither on the vine or become an integral part of the community. Depends just how many Cornish Nationalists there are with deep pockets I suspect.
I used to have a handle on life but it broke.

There is one detail I forgot to mention, the editor of this paper is a local councillor.

I was asked for a page three picture after the first issue ~ so I gave 'em one of me. They didn't ask again! evil:

All of our pics are village related but I'm still trying to persuade certain members of the local WI to let me do a calendar. So far the only members willing are the ones I don't want to photograph confused:

I cant see the BNP wanting to be linked to a paper that says there is a statue of satan in the courtyard at the EU or that there is ahuge zionist conspiracy. They are trying to come across as being mature and caring now  shrugs:
