Last year, I posted a polite request asking people not to post articles from the this blog on Facebook without checking the copyright first.
Unfortunately, one person has continued to copy articles from here onto Facebook, and despite me contacting him directly and asking him, very politely to check with me first re copyright, he ignored my messages and continued to post copyrighted material.
This has now resulted with this blog being threatened with legal action. As a result, and with much sadness, I have no alternative but to close this blog. This will be happening over the next week or so.
I am sorry that it all has to end like this, but there is always someone who has to spoil other people’s enjoyment.
Thank you to everyone who has supported this blog over the years, and also to everyone who has read and enjoyed the articles.
It has been a pleasure to work on the blog, and I will be sorry to see it go, but as they say, all good things must come to and end.
Thank you,
Steve
Thank you for all your work.
How sad that all your work has to end this way-but as you say- there is always someone.
All the best from Scotland.
