:clap: Not going to Hidden Earth but if I was I'd be happy to oblige.  Instead I'll see of I can do a live webcast from a local cave/pub. :beer:

Bit lazy copying the entire code from the HE site.

Just a friendly nudge that it's an offence to imitate a charity, and an offence to copy intellectual property if someone at the BCA doesn't like you. You could have put a bit of effort into making a proper 'almost like it' page or at least remove the address and charity number.

Agreed - I gave Dankplaces a private correspondence course in IP but it fell on deaf ears - hence the ?1.10 lecture that I will deliver over the weekend.  I'm all in favour of a bit of satire but its easy to fall foul of the law.

Isn't parody an exception in EU copyright law? I don't think you need the permission of the rights owner to reuse it in this case. Bloody freedom of expression - thanks ObamaTusk!

Gov.uk says it's ok  (y)  https://www.gov.uk/guidance/exceptions-to-copyright#parody-caricature-and-pastiche

Not that I expect Ethel Bangrod gives a monkey's what the law says anyway ;)

Please send cheques made payable to "R. Dors" to Dr Duncan Price c/o The Hunter's Lodge Inn, Old Bristol Rd, Wells BA5 3AR - my accountant, Roger, will deal with the rest in exchange for local produce.
