One question ? can any URL or site be added as I have just tried to add a few and they come up 'URL not found' ? do they need to be specially configured sites ? or are these only applicable to the premium rated ones.

*** Yes John I noticed that,I supoose they want us to go premium to get the full access.
I will keep looking to see if there is anything useful for us here.
The story on the SAAB order hit the national news ! someone must have exracted it from the scale-models feed,cannot be bad.
They said on the television the other night, about how the general public are now providing news and photographs for the press,the Hemel Hempstead photographs were provided by some amateur film makers.Thes camera phones have proved useful in this respect as well.
