Oh VBB will you never accept that they don't do spinning?

A couple of asides though. I note in two of the press accounts we have stuff about the hill was in danger of total collapse due to rain and that the original collapse was due to rain. I thought, respectively, it wasn't in danger of total collapse and the original collapse wasn't due to rain (though the second was due to a crappy leaky cover that let in the rain!).
Where DO they get these stories from?!

They are not about to slag off one of their own [or Atkinson would have been disowned by now].

That would make them look incompetent, and the truth hurts...

I suspect they get their stories from reading the TMA forum to be quite honest, the roman news has been around for years, so what is 'new' news but a spinning of publicity; it must be quite humbling for all you "opinionated' people to get to run the news ;) tis the freedom of the internet no less...

Don't forget the Dutch fuckwits who climbed in and caused a large section to collapse!
