Webcams are down... is it just here?

Post by floppit » Tue Aug 09, 2011 9:57 pm

I went for a gander after hearing Nottingham was dead today with shops shut in case of riots. I can't find a single working webcam of the centre. Have they done this everywhere else?

There's a helicopter flying over but other than that nothing's happened that I've seen (albeit I've been working all day so not looking). I really want to know, especially whether looters have set sights higher than Primark and JD Sports!

Meh - miffed about webcams... I wanted to see what's going off (if anything).

I dunno, it's really weird, site faults or temporarily offline notes. Can't find a single working cam!

Riot junkie? Nah, just missed the news. I was alive and kicking last time around when they were bigger and closer, but still didn't see anything (due to being a kid).

It's summer, it's been hot, Tories are in, there's riots - can't be arsed to extrapolate a cause just not exactly surprising.

wouldn't surprise me at all if they have shut them down for "security" reasons. Nobody wants to see those 10 coppers beating someone after all

Police station firebombed before things kick off. Good lads, that is organised looting

I can still hear them outside but other than the helis it's dead quiet. Football night's a good point. Meh! I'm off to bed! nighty night...
