"This new index contains only a very limited number of international pages because we do not want to congest busy international links."

"When no documents match your query, the system will return 20000 random web pages. "

"Index contains ~25 million pages"

I also had a look at the seagulls.co.uk on the Wayback Machine, also fascinating.

I bet a large majority on here wished they had tried harder at school, I know I do, I dropped out of all my G.C.Es one by one, and took C,S.Es which were almost worthless to me.
