Slow day for news? No mention of plummeting, avoiding schools etc. Mind you, the schools are on holiday so not really relevant.

Have the Daily Mail ruled out terrorism yet, or is the jury out?

I was surprised at first that it hadn't got more coverage - the BBC website doesn't even seem to be carrying it. But it's a freighter so nobody can run a big "holiday families in emergency landing death crash terror scare accident horror" headline. It appears a story about a sheep being stuck on a house roof is more interesting at the moment...

It's probably down to the Viet-Taff they've been a bit quiet for a while developing their latest leek powered rocket.
