The Daily Mail is reporting that "timber beams" on railway lines have been
set alight (actually they said set on fire) by sparks. Do none of their
journalists know they are called "sleepers"?

The BBC has hit a new low where you can spot presenters deliberately
trying to pronounce the letter "t" as something like a "d", the
concentration on their faces is hilarious. Isn't the BBC supposed to
maintain some standards?
