What I find quite frightening is the fact that according to the UK Missing Person Bureau, 552 bodies have been found and they haven't got a clue who they are! http://missingpersons.police.uk/en/search

They would be classified as absconding and placed as a wanted person on PNC rather than missing.

The vast majority of missing people are 1) Children in care who abscond from either the care home or their foster carers - the carers have a duty to ensure their safety so report them to the Police. Most are found fairly quickly or turn up of their own accord. 2) Children who don't come home at...

It is called the Broken Windows Theory. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broken_windows_theory A big advocate of it was William Bratton, who was head of the New York Police. You might not be aware, but in 2011 David Cameron was seriously considering appointing Bratton as the head of the...

Yes I agree, but people are being pedantic. There is a difference. Richdog - classic - belittle then cut off discussion. I am not naïve in any way or shape. I happen to think that Sony having considered their options using experts, decided that the camera would be configured as it is. As...

I'll happily listen to anyone who is an expert in design/engineering or electronics Raymond, but anyone else its just pedantic circular arguments. BTW is that a Sony A7R Mark III with a broken hotshoe?

I suspect the engineering/design/electronics team at Sony have some sound reasoning as to their expert decision. Accept it for what it is - a brilliant bit of kit.

Yes but it was over two years ago :D Halloween necrothread.

My Father was out there in 1961 when they decided to build the wall. He was in the R.E.M.E attached to the Lifeguards. He always said that the World came incredibly close to World War 3 when that wall went up. It would have only taken someone with an itchy trigger finger on either side to have...

You decided where you are going on Anglesey? Some good locations are - Newborough Beach and the nearby Llanddwyn Island (which has some stunning views back towards the main coast, Two lighthouses, a ruined Church and some Pilots cottages). If you do go to the Island when you reach it head...

Get her to join the Scouts and/or do her Duke of Edinburgh Awards https://www.dofe.org Find out where your local Cancer Hospice is and get her to Volunteer there. Employers will be far more impressed with those on a CV than a trip to Costa Rica. Oh by the way - still save the £4500 for her...

There has been a separate Google Street View App for Android phones for quite some time. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.street&hl=en_GB

Edit

You've lost me as to what this brings to the debate or was that some way to illustrate your Googling/adding pictures to the forum skills?

When this was introduced here in Wales, which was in 2015, I opted out. I disagreed with the fact that this was Wales only. In my opinion it should have gone Nationwide at that point. Ok some might criticise me for it, but that was my choice, perhaps a protest, perhaps a little pointless, but...

One good way of finding out what sort of lens is being used to photograph certain things, is to do a search of Flickr. The following search is for cars within one of the bigger Panasonic Micro Four thirds groups. Check out the pictures and look at the information as to what lens was used. Will...

Tweedbean, your Panasonic G2 is a Micro Four thirds lens mount. The Canon 50mm 1.8 STM lens is a Canon EF lens mount. The lens will not fit on the Panasonic body. What are your intentions? Photographing cars in motor shows, museums or classic car/meet ups outdoors? Fairly sure there are some...

It would be hazardous to health like any industrial process if you sat there and breathed in fumes, but these plants have massive extraction/filtration systems to remove fumes before expelling any air. If people work there will they get Cancer and other types of disease. Why yes they will, like...

They sometimes turn up on the Oxfam website at fairly cheap prices too.

What about this one the Seiko SNZG13J1, Japanese market version as it has the J in the model code (will have Japanese and English Day characters). £151 from Yorkshire Watches. It is an automatic and not far off what you'll pay for that SKA721P1 with importation and handling charges. It also...
