DaveR, I suggest you immediately send an e-mail to the Editor seeking an early explanation.

Please let us know how you get on.

Sue them!   In fact save the Legal Fees, just send them an invoice for £1,000.00 or whatever you think is reasonable!

If you use my advice I will bill you accordingly!   _))*   _))*

Believe it or not, this is not as stupid as it sounds. An actor friend of mine, sends an invoice to the relevant production company whenever he appears in a clip show of some kind. He always gets paid  ;D

Stick an invoice up their jacksie mate... its outrageous, and laziness on their part.

£1000 for the infringement, and £1000 for the theft of intellectual property.

Its outrageous, quite a few things have been outrageous today.  I'm off to 'Niggles' to tell you ALL about it.

I was very annoyed to see that my photo of the Torchlight Parade in Conwy has appeared on page 10 of this week's Weekly News. This is a copyright image and no-one has sought my permission to use it in a publication or paid me for the use of it.
This matter has now been resolved. It turned out that the Weekly News acted in good faith and were passed the photo from a third party who was obviously not conversant with copyright issues. I shall not name them on here to spare their blushes!

No - I think Judith has worked long and hard over the years.  She has done what her Editor and the publisher have required.  50 years of working for that outfit deserves a medal let alone  a few lines of congratulations!

Without her there would not be much of a paper, or should I say even less than there is!   :D

I like to buy the Weekly News, as much to support it as a local newspaper than anything else. But, I have to say it's becoming a struggle to justify the 77p.  I read this week's copy in 5 minutes flat - it seems to be all soft 'human interest' stories than any  real local news.  :(
