From today's Evening Standard (London).

I won't post the image directly as it's pretty big. If you have difficulty reading hit CTRL and the + key to zoom, and CTRL and the - key to zoom out again.

Apologies if it's a bit blurry - this is the best I could do.

P.S. -The JPG linked in the first post is the biggest flickr would allow and is kinda hard to read; so here is a PNG version which I have pushed onto a temporary fileserver for download.

I love the creativity of the picture. Here's a link where you don't have to use a
magnifying glass to read the text off your screen as I did the first time, before

lol - I posted it on day of publication when it is only available via their awful online e-edition which involves installing stuff. :)

Apologies it was so small! Glad you like it though, i thought it was very relevant for this forum.
