6 music. in all the coverage, and my gosh isn’t everyone in a tizz about it, i found this website, devoted to showing indigestible screeds of information in pretty ways: http://www.informationisbeautiful.net/ i like. i have also divined from the datasheet behind it (you know me. like to get the bonnet up) that the BBC spends over twice as [...]
