      Ellie Bulteel,
      I live in Essex and sometime around 2002-04 my older sister told me about this story. I always thought it was an urban legend, because I couldn't think of how the bomber would know the customers' addresses. I only realised this was the same story when it mentioned the letter-bombs.

    "Our policy is that we wouldn't pay any extortionist" And then immediately contradicts himself..
    I'd hope if you were carrying out a police operation it would be in a controlled fashion...
    What he means is they won't pay unless they're desperate. Cut the tough guy "We don't negotiate with terrorists" bullshit.
    Every criminal knows you will eventually and that it's just a deterrent.

    The problem is the colors are distorting the image. Increase re sample image increase the dpi, click on box to maintain image size to about 300 dpi...then go to channels and rgb split channels you will see that the red channel is lighter you should be able to clarify the picture by playing with the hue/contrast...etc....hope this helps. bottom line build back the information into the picture...there is a Gaussian blur that is caused by the light fixtures.
