Hi I am part of an on-line community that has a forum. Some of the other forum users have started posting copyrighted material in their forum signatures, in the form of cartoon strips.

Their telephone conversations are usually discussing problems which are the result of a poorly implemented computer system which (A) was involved in the decision to purchase and...

I'm probably flogging a dead horse here, so I'll try keep it short and sweet. Basically, my company runs a discretionary bonus scheme. When a I first joined the company 6 years ago, there was a loose verbal of agreement of what the minimum amount to expect would be. It was one of the reasons for the basic salary to be slightly lower than that of competitors. During this time, the company has...

I am being sued in the County Court on a small claims matter. I have filed a defence. I have now been asked by the court to complete an "Allocation Questionnaire". Question H asks "have you attached the fee for filing this allocation questionnaire?" Is there a fee payable by a defendant to file an allocation questionnaire and if so, how much? -- Alasdair.

Who did you talk to? Does anyone here know the documents and associated document numbers that I need to get from the court to begin my task?

I was renting the room within a house which could be described as HMO. The room was fitted with shower and fridge. Toilet and cooking facilities were shared with others, and locks on doors were installed. Each of us in the house (approx 10) had separate tenancy agreement with the agency for at least 6 months rental. There was no single word about

Has any one used the pension credit schema to retire early from work? http://www.thepensionservice.gov.uk/pensioncredit/ It only applies if you are sixty or over, and implies that I could just pack in my job and claim this which gives £174.05 a week if you have a partner. As I am sixty two and in a low paid job this seems a good time to retire! But I would really like to find out if it is as...

Sorry....couldn't reply to group on original post Well then you haven't used the device to "receive" or "record" it have you? In which case, no you don't need a licence. Thanks Alex and all.

I'm currently faced with eviction (in less than two weeks) from a rented flat by the mortgage lender. I have an AST which has several months to run but I've discovered that the lender did not give permission for the tenancy. I understand this means I have no protection against the lender. The tenancy was set up by a letting agent but they do not manage the property and have informed me that...

http://www.tvlicensing.co.uk/information/index.jsp Clearly says 'If you use a TV or any other device to receive or record TV programmes (for example, a VCR, set-top box, DVD recorder or PC with a broadcast card) - you need a TV Licence.' but what if one were to watch a program using a recorder (for playback) and a monitor only........ ie where there was *no* tv receiver / tuner.

I sent this out as a cross post but it doesn't appear to have got through. So what is a paedophile ? It is someone, either male or female, who feels sexually attracted to prepubescent children An often misused word to refer to both Child-Lovers, and Child-Abusers alike. In its original meaning, it simply meant to be attracted to children (paedo).

I went to Tesco this morning and picked up a Dyson handheld vacuum cleaner with my groceries. The box containing the vacuum cleaner had a sticker marked "Security Protected" on it. When I went to the checkout the operator opened the box and took a look inside and then said "There's no security tag inside" I was a bit suspicious but duly paid for the vacuum cleaner and groceries. When I left...
