having trouble finding a link to the story. looked on the beeb site as suggested, couldn't find anything. Anyone found it?

Still under most popular shared!

(It's now letting me paste it in - why, oh why, wouldn't it let me do that yesterday? Is there an explanation?)

thx, it was the manchester bit that threw me, that's an additional layer down from England news.

I once read of someone who sued the manufacturers of the camper van he bought because it didn't have a warning that he shouldn't put it in cruise control then go to make a cup of tea.   :roflanim:

Guess which country that was in?  (And if you get stuck, let me give you a clue.  He won thousands in compensation).

Wish I had thought of that one, we had camper vans for years and my daughters used to laugh that the first thing we did after breaking down was...put the kettle on :innocent:
