    i didn't think it did but try searching google (uk only) for these terms (careful, watch the cap letters) and then see where www.lightingforce.co.uk is for each one...

    Lighting Sussex = 2nd

    lighting Sussex = 2nd

    Lighting sussex = 2nd

    lighting sussex = GONE!!!

    am i seeing things?

    You guys realize you are all looking at different datacenters, right?

    Also too, seems like some funky updating is going on with google search over the past few day... that might be playing with different results (even at different times)

    Google has a lot of datacenters...it connects you to different ones and different times even from the same place, same computer. And its not uncommon to have differing rankings in different datacenters.

    UPDATE>>>>>>>

    well, i've checked again this morning and now get the same (correct) results each time.

    i think i'll call it the 'google glitch'
