[senit] youtube

i guess it could be covered by a normal aup. what some

To date it has been banned by our ISP at The Bridge and I have left it at 
that as there is some pretty unsavoury stuff - even in the Thomas section. 
I like David's playlist idea and wonder if something could be put together 
then made available to others and updated as and when - it is very time 
consuming to sit and watch loads of videos but as people find good ones 
others could benefit.  I could put a link - or possibly even a playlist - on 
the Plasma Screen & Whiteboard Room website? www.whiteboardroom.org.uk

Best wishes

Sally
