To anyone who understands Copyright Law:-

A few years ago I bought the autobiography of my Great, Great, Great Uncle, Jimmy Seed who is one of Charlton Athletics most successful managers...

Recently it got me thinking, I would like to type it up word for word and make it available for anyone to read who may be interested in it, but I dont want to fall foul of the law...

The book was produced in 1958 by The Sportsman's Book Club and my ancestor died in 1966, what is the law in this country regarding expiry of copyright and would I be i breach if I went ahead and published it online myself?

is there a way to swap from logging in via facebook to logging into an account on here? i ask as while am studying i cant log in via facebook unless on my dinner hour.

cheers.

Whilst I can't prove anything does anyone else suspect that someone is using mutliple accounts... anyone else think the same?!

Hi guys, just a quick invention of a possible challenge people could partake in.
The main objective is to get as many miles and/or different services etc. in one period of, say, 8 hours, than the others.

It would have to be formed in teams. Everyone would meet up at a certain point and then when the clock hits the hour mark, the teams all go off in different directions.
Just throwing this idea out; how many people would be interested? Similar competitions/challenges could be done for Arriva and Stagecoach but I thought of GNE as the largest operator in the North East.

The winner(s) don't win anything but the pride of having completed the challenge better than everyone else.

What are people's thoughts/comments/opinions/ideas? I, for one, would be more than happy to have a go one day should there be a demand.

We all have little things that put a smile on our faces.
It could be the in laws crashing their car off the side of a mountain or finding a scrumpled up tenner in an old coat.

Just found 3 toffees in my stash of Christmas sweets!
Got a huge grin on my face now coz I thought there were just the shitty ones left.

Well there you go! It's out there....not my words.

Now it no longer being the 90s I got into the spirit of Yahoo Groups, I wound the crank up on my Windows 95 PC and after a 20 minute load I logged onto Yahoo. It was very much like an online trip to Beamish as I watched the brand new episodes of Friends on my new 32 inch Plasma TV which I bought especially for the Playstation 2 out later this year.

So after logging into Yahoo Groups (Hovis ad music playing in background) I came across this quote

but also I am slightly alarmed at the emergence of a few forums, one of which whilst seemingly well subscribed has an over zealous team of moderators who would not be out of place in the government of North Korea. They tend to keep discussion limited to what they wish to discuss and woe betide anyone who comes in with an opinion of their own. This is coupled with the latest generation of enthusiasts who seem hell bent on causing friction between the bus companies and the enthusiast community in general.

Eeh by gum I miss the old days

Hi - Does anyone know where I can download Helen, looks good.

Cos I am a saddo, one of the perks of this time of year, is reading documentation relating to documents released under the 30 year rule.

The last 2-3 releases are particularly interesting due to the political unrest during the previous tory government.

Here is the BBC take on it with links to other organisations such as the National Archives www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-25549596

Does anyone know the number to phone for a replacement a County Durham concessionary pass, snapped mine and cant find the number...I threw it out before getting the number off the back to phone
