Are you sure it's not the original? MKWeb is quite a local paper for Bletchley Park.

Wow, thanks. That was a pattern-matching failure on my part—it looked like the sites we frequently see which rip content off, and the "MK" in "MKWeb" escaped me completely.

Sorry to the good people of Milton Keynes and their fine local paper!

Haha, I'm sure they won't mind :) I figured that was exactly the thought process, too! "MKWeb" doesn't immediately sound like a reputable source ;)

It probably isn't usually, anyway!

Source: I grew up with MK as my local city.
