Or so the Daily Mirror would have you believe.

I have just seen this reported on TTF about a breakdown on Oblivion yesterday, these things happen quite a lot and people do have to be evacuated by people who know what they are doing and are very good at there job.

Makes a change for a tabloid to blow things out of proportion dont you think?  Mad

The thing that concerns me is they have called Oblivion terryfying. Are they talking about Oblivion at AT or is there another one somewhere else that is infact terryfying.
