    Car Turning Space needed

    My first thought was who cares, closely followed by 'in this day and age your probably right to wonder' How about driving a circle within the markings of a couple of bays and taking a measurement afterwards....

    Digital reception

    Update...of sorts, i've checked all the cables in the loft for rodent attack and all are fine, all connections are good as well. I'm really at a loss to understand the problem, as previously mentioned the digital bbc channels are fine, digital itv channels are pants. How on earth can that...
