I read with interest and some amusement today's news of Luc Costermans breaking the world blind road speed record.
My favourite part of the article was the paragraph-hungry BBC's decision to separate these two sentences into two paragraphs.
Two years ago Mr Costermans completed a tour of France piloting a light aeroplane.
He was accompanied by an instructor and a navigator.
Surely the second sentence is a sufficient qualification of the first to negate the need for the carriage return, line feed.
