A few Twitter users will have noticed some users are posting tweets from something called Blip.fm.
Quite simply, it’s a free web page that allows users to post songs and videos to various social media sites – such as Facebook and Twitter.
It’s really pretty good – I didn’t really get into at first – but after [...]

So anyway… the [...]

BBC news had story about a youth disco/club venue that is being shut down because of the underage drinking & fighting it caused…. and then within 5 minutes they show a clip for Children in Need where they want our money to fund a disco/club venue to keep kids off of the street [...]

That also works out at £8.04 [...]

Yup… the Breakfast Club was more of a breakfast submarine due to the amount of rain it saw!
I haven’t seen such a storm in 3 years – the rain came down so hard it started going back up again, but people still turned up to see the souped up cars on show.
