Yeah, much more appropriate photo, but I’m trying to avoid ones with huge copyright notices on them!

Quite right too, CtSO. We got seriously close to being sued for using a photo on our LCFC messageboard without permission. this was about 10 years ago when we had just started it and didn’t really understand copyright, or more like we didn’t give a toss because the owner will never know. We somehow managed to avoid any charges and we got off with our knuckles severely rapped.

Private Eye regularly gets threatening letters from lawyers about using trade names, pictures etc. in a generic sense. Bic and Portakabin are two which spring to mind. PE tends to print the letters with a comment along the lines of “What a sad way to earn a living.”. PE does have deep pockets, mind.

@Gipton Teenager – The Portakabin one was hilarious. I recall that when they printed the pompous letter from their copyright bloke instructing them to cease printing their trade name, every letter in the letters’ section was headlined ‘Portakabin’.

I wasn’t suggesting you use the photo, except as an indicator of how to spell Overnite.
Here’s further proof (if proof were needed).

Oh blimey, I’m not sure what’s the most disappointing Dr D – me failing to make that connection just then, or me failing to act on being told about it back in 2012 by your good self.
Correction coming up.

Is that some kind of Corgi Registered, TNT Overnite double hitter, Dr D? Mint in box, too. Ah, the geek in me is piqued.

The dictionary people at the publishers where I work very recently got a letter from the lawyers of a certain stationery company, trying to get them to change the definitions of certain brands of adhesive tape to fit their branding guidelines (they were already capitalised and identified as trademarks). I believe we told them where to get off. If they escalate, I will suggest they change the example usage for the British variant of said tape to a line from Monmore, Hares Running.
