Surface tension

Posted on by

Flickr contacted me to say they have removed a photo I used from an award-winning photographer’s website: “We have received a Notice of Infringement from Nick Cobbing via the Yahoo! Copyright Team and have removed the photo “surface tension” from your photostream.” Sorry Nick, I should have asked first. (I guess he doesn’t remember me from the days of Red Pepper, which is amazingly still going, when I had the pleasure of working with him as news editor. )

Pictured: Refugee Week pic from Sunday, just before the Falklands War anniversary celebration. In the photo-journalistic style of Nick  from the ‘old days’.

Apprentice Katie fired

Posted on by

I hear Ex-Apprentice Katie has been fired from the Met Office, during her probationary period which is tough for anyone. Looking forward to the final tomorrow. My guess is that Sir Alan Sugar will opt for Simon (maybe a bit of pro-Cambridge bias?), though Charlotte might be the safer bet. But who knows which way the wind will blow.
