Wife bought a box of ephemera at a local action which contained photos from late 1940's to 1950's with a company 'Copyright' stamp on the rear. The company was bought and sold several times and no longer exists as an entity in its original form.

Who owns the Copyright?

Seems Bare Bottom or sand is the way most go - If I clean it well and keep filter inlet clear would there be any problem using some surplus builders sand I have?

My employer is huge but useless - they have driven me to a point where I physically and mentally can not work for them anymore. People there are scared they'll lose their jobs if they make 'trouble'. Problem is there is favouritism, nepotism, fraud, mismanagement and previous assaults, one of which I personally witnessed.

I am so annoyed I have bought a domain which mimics the company name and planned to open it for people to post their thoughts, opinions and experiences on. I also considered going to the media and marching up and down outside their offices with a good old placard.

I've been told if I do any of the above they will likely sue me for libel/slander/defamation!!

Thoughts please, including all you trolls and keyboard heroes - I hear you chomping at the bit already!! You want to waste your time and feel 'big' and self-satisfied who am I to stop you, it is a democracy with freedom of speech after all - Oh, wait......

Heard these are popular in Mexico but can't find a recipe - I'm fine with the pastry but need the filling please!!!

Thanks!!!

Keeps opening every time I visit Yahoo mail - tried deleting, typing then deleting, refreshing, clearing cache etc but to no avail....

Not the end of the world but if anyone knows how to fix it I'm all ears!!

Thanks

Is there any mechanism to charge a tradesman and/or their agent for my wasted time if they fail to turn up for an agreed appointment?

I ask having taken an afternoon off fruitlessly....

OK, only just been bitten by the sewing bug and always thought thread was thread - now I know it's not...

I only have a basic Janome machine.

I had always believed one Campden tablet was the equivalent to one teaspoon of powdered metabisulphate - I now know this is wrong but am confused how much powder to use to a) kill wild yeast in fresh fruit and b) sterlise equipment...

Can someone please advise

Thank you!!

Tired of looking now.... What do you have and why???

At 6 foot 3 inches I need a long mattress but can't find a decent sofa bed any where

Can anyone point me in the right direction??

Thanks!!!

...is there a mix that can be made up that doesn't include peat?

Took a chance and bought some off eBay but it's AWFUL!!!

If a will is written specifying a particular address but the person moves to a new address is what's written valid? My mothers partner sadly died a month ago and his will states;

"I give and bequeath to (my mother) the entire contents of my home. Upon the sale of my home (old address quoted here) the net proceeds to be divided, that is to say, 6 equal shares unto my dear friend (my mother) absolutely, 2 equal shares to my son and the final 2 equal shares to my daughter"

Does this still stand even though he has moved to a different property? A solicitor is saying it may not....

Thank you

I recently bought a small Bay (Laurus nobilis) to grow and who's leave I planned to use in my cooking but the label says "For decorative purposes only not for consumption".

Wary of becoming ill, is this right? I mean, are there difference varieties of Bay? I thought a Bay was a Bay was a Bay....

Thanks!!

Renting through an agent but Landlord/Owner keeps wanting to 'pop round' to check work done by contractors etc.

I find this quite invasive and wondered if I had to grant them access to the property or not - it may be their property but whilst I pay £1000 a month to rent it I consider it my 'home'

Thanks!!

Bought one from Lidl but can't work out what plugs go where... Got an old Sony TRV27E camcorder and am desperate to convert footage of kids when babies etc....

Any help/advice gratefully received!!!

Rumours in the media suggest this may happen. What would the rationale be and what would there be to gain?

Advice and experiences please - Thank you!!

...any links/pointers gratefully received!!

Thanks!!
