Parcelforce now leave undelivered packages at certain PO's just in case it doesn't arrive. The last item I had delivered (a Zigview) they didn't even come to my house just left it at the PO. Took me a week to find out that they'd done that.

The roads will be very busy Friday due to the Bank Holiday. Most carriers will just park up their fleets and give the vans a spring clean..... ready for Tuesday

Thursday is the New Friday

Please clear this up quickly Until it's confirmed that I have a right to put my left foot down on a public footpath...... I'm having to hop about on just my right foot!

Video might well be different.

The face blurring started in the US on candid camera type shows. Possibly the blurred face people objected to being shown or they just did it because they hadn't signed a release.

Some States actually don't allow video recording because they have a law prohibiting sound recording in public places

Does anyone know where this business of believing that rights exist to do things in public places came from? I know of no law that gives the public a right to photograph anything in any place, whether public or not. If anyone does know of such a law - can you please point me towards it?

Isn't photography just one of those things that folks might do - such as breathing, sneezing, talking or peering into shop windows? There is no law against it nor any right to do it.

I suspect that the belief that being in a public place confers rights is yet another urban myth.

Generally if there isn't a law against doing something you can do it.

I'm sure this is covered anyway by allowing photography of private property from the public highway/footpaths etc. That's why the press buy so many super telephoto's

Trespass is no longer an offence. All they can do is ask you to leave.

No problem as long as it's got an eyecup. The small one seems to be the latest model.

An older model (the seller claimed it was the latest) sold on ebay recently for £105 posted........ ebay_link
