Any news?



Groundhog Day at local paper.

The award-winning Western Gazette is blaming a computer error for the fact that it's printed the same story on pages 8 and 9 of its Somerton and Langport edition for the last 30 years. It's believed a cleaner at the paper's Yeovil offices may have unplugged the main server while she was using the hoover to get the filth off the court pages. There are no further details at present.


The Gazette's main frame computer - above - was accidentally switched off by a cleaner in 1985.
