    I know.... it's definitely a case of me never knowing "people".... if I'd been born in London I'd have been a millionaire :)

    It seems in London you just have to wake up and scratch your nuts and somebody's paying you to do that all day ..... (probably on webcam though).

    :)

    I wish!

    I know this doesn't come directly to you, Pastures, but I wish I had Kim Kardashian's talent, of not having any talent and making millions from it :)

    In other news, we've set a wedding date :eek:

    Sounds like a NP franchise coming on... madeinhertfordshire?

    More seriously though, if you need a business development consultant PN sounds like just the lady you're looking for!

    Not the spirit of the post, I know, but I'd never do a franchise, ever!

    Only the franchisor wins; my BiL's been there and done it, and he ended up unemployed, and £400k down :eek:

    I do agree that PN would make a good businesswoman, though!
    Depends. Copyright has 2 main issues to investigate:
    1] Copyright on the thing, is it X years, or is it X years after the designer dies?
    2] Did the original copyright get registered/renewed?

    But you're the threads expert .... so you'll know.

    I knew nothing on that, although I only deal with licensing and pre-written copyright contracts with insertables.

    We're here and in one piece. Jet lag is ok.

    Re the deodorant there's an old joke about wanting it for my underarms, not for ball or aerosol. I wouldn't tell it among Nice People though.

    Hahahaha, this was not planned. Luckily no one fell badly or was hurt, just a foot came through the ceiling.

    Oh dear. Is that covered by normal house and contents?

    Nor would I. I know a few people that have done courier type franchises and they all seem to work a lot for very little.

    Recent talent seems to be naming your child something that will hit the headlines.

    Back from court - been in court every day this week so far (and again tomorrow) but fortunately, today's was a short hearing at a very local venue!
    ...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.
