I vaguely remember a thread by a journo asking about Tango Routes recently. IIRC he got knobbed off at the high port.

Can't think why.

I love the analogy of driving to a distant petrol station for cheaper fuel. Spot on! I guess it is a bit like the carbon footprint created by producing material at the BBC - how many people switch on the telly and then mentally switch off when this kind of drivel crops up? Not to mention all those big generators running H24 at outside broadcast events and the cost of producing candles that this guy uses in his static caravan (that he walks to) for his annual holiday. Oh, and all those TV programmes such as "Wish You were here " that are clearly filmed in a shed in Shephards Bush and not on Caibbean beaches.
