It does look as if you're playing a minor discord on your temple.
"Someone did suggest that I should also post my printed reviews here too – I’m not sure about the legal position on that one": what I was once told is that, if you haven't signed anything, then the default position is that TO/FT/etc are buying first print publication rights, after which the rights revert to you. I don't know how right that is, but certainly, I've never had any grief from the FT for putting up my reviews for them when I was a freelance, although (when I finally get around to updating my personal site) those written since I went on to the payroll will be represented by links only.

I signed *something* with Time Out, but I'll be blowed if I know what it said...
I would love to hear what you thought of this piece! Do you think the moment has passed for you to write about it?
