How about this one, folks?


Python Swallows a man in the KwaZulu-Natal
Hi guys, here's a bit of a shocker for those of you who like wandering about in the bush or unexplored routes and roads.
It took 8 men to load this python on to the truck. It swallowed a man after it found him drunk and sleeping next to the N2 road in Mkhuze,KZN on Saturday.
Had it not been spotted, the python would have remained on the same spot for up to 8 months while it digested every piece of the man's body, including
skull and every bone in his body.

A short article about all the unsold cars in the world (a bit repetitious..).

My gut feeling is that the article is crap. Manufacturers would adjust the rate at which the cars were made to suit the market.

This article seems to indicate that generally car purchases have remained steady over the past couple of years at least, better and worse in some parts of the world. And in fact the table indicates that Landrover sales in 2013 improved almost 10% compare to 2012. GM, Ford and Nissan all down by a few percentage points.

You would think it's crap, that the automotive manufacturers would be able to adjust their output easily.....but no.

Those pictures are just a few years out of date. There really was stockpiles of thousands of new cars. My bro-in-law is based not far from the disused Upper Heyford, and apparently the cars they have left there are mostly able to be stored under cover.

The airfield at Gaydon had 1700 Series One Discoveries parked on it at the time of the introduction of the Series II.
I don't know what happened to them.

They should have sent some here as there was a big gap between the last D1 sold and the first of the D2's
