# *gives praise to magic donkey*
edit:

Threadjack: Finally got through to a human being at Emap... apparently I've been passed straight over to their lawyers. Lawyers have been known to cash cheques, but not write them. Looks like they want to play games instead of paying me for the image they used.

# I like emap
I used to work there and they paid me to leave.

(Not that I have contacts that could help you - different staff these days.)

# made redundant
but my then boss fixed the system so that I was awarded a nice 'bonus for meeting targets'

this plus some redundancy pay added up nicely.

# Are you prepared for the fight?
I'd be prepared to march on their fucking office- there's loads of us.

Thought about sending all this to the papers?

# "Are you prepared for the fight?"
Can't see it being much of a fight. It's my image, and they used it without asking.

Let's see.

# Well yes, but they've got money and lawyers.
If we marched on them it'd be an excuse for a meet.
