Isn't their director a tory appointee?

My pet hat with coverage like this is the same regurgitated parts of the story over and over, with the BBC reporters (and presumably this happens elsewhere, but I only tuned into the Beeb) re-hashing exactly what they said 5 minutes ago to keep the broadcast live until the next tidbit of info gets released. 

Then to plug the gaps they wheel out Nicholas Witchell who appeared on Huw Edwards' shift to give his guesses on what the family are feeling right now, where they are, who's there with them and then speculating on funeral arrangements in scenarios he's just made up.  :-S There's nothing new to report, so we're gonna resort to guesswork. :C

Yep, fully agreed. It's the same tosh and thoughts re-hashed over and over, meanwhile they'll try and find random people to interview and ask "what he meant to them" (not live of course, only the nicest interviews get broadcast). Overall, if you watch it you realise that after half an hour you've leant hardly anything apart from "what other people think".  :-|

He's just jealous because he doesn't have a pet hat like the rest of us...

I think it's the natural progressive step up from owning a rock. 

I wonder if people who actually /do/ have a pet rock impose any sort of limits on size. 

Does it have to fit in a drawer/room/house/garden? Or could someone adopt something like Uluru if so inclined?

Anyone who wants to be right would agree that Uluru is a land formation made out of rock, but is not a rock.

Also, if you can't take an entity home with you, claiming it as your pet would sit somewhere on a scale between inaccurate and meaningless.

I believe there's a whole bunch of people who have been owning Uluru for quite a while, now. They're the ones who have stopped people climbing all over it. Presumably it's rude to climb on a pet rock.

Does pet concrete count? I have a lump of pet concrete from when my office building of many years was bulldozed last year. Nothing wrong with the building, it was torn down because of the oil downturn in Aberdeen and to avoid business rates on an empty building after the company I contracted at relocated. :(

I'm so sorry, but this is a thing.
