[IMC-UK-Features] harmondsworth4 feature

[beetle at riseup.net]

hi yet again,

I'm sorry, probably my fault. I don't know whether it warrants a  
startpage special now you've described it- what I meant was whatever's  
appropriate for breaking news to then become a feature once it's  
'broken'. If that's called breaking news, or startpage special, or  
really new news or whatever, can we have it as that :)

thanks
