We might need to take a break from the blog for a while, because:
(From the Jersey Evening Post)
Jersey internet bloggers will in future have to be licensed because of previously overlooked regulations imposed by the Island's Telecommunications Law. The law says that noone may disseminate comment, opinion or any contentious material electronically without sanction from the 'broadcasting authority'. Since the demise of the Broadcasting Committee of the States, that authority is deemed to have been transferred to the Chief Minister's department. Island-based bloggers who wish to continue their online activities legally are required to lodge an application within the next seven days.I'm pretty busy for the next seven days.
So it's lucky it was part of the April 1st issue. Of course I didn't fall for it. Absolutely not.
Hooray! It's Friday! We don't really have plans for the weekend; Hash on Sunday, nothing on Saturday, maybe a concert tomorrow night. James's best friend is a percussionist and plays in the Jersey Symphony Orchestra occasionally.
Well, while I take a few days off to lodge an application for our blogger's licence, James is going to take over the writing part. He's going to leave out the contentious material until we're sure that this blog is legal under this new law. Ok?
