On the subject of the rugby pictures, I have literally hundreds. The problem is that there are very few that I can post. We do use them on our own website, and the local paper use a few.

I take mostly junior rugby shots, even the one posted here is of an U16s game, so child protection issues are very real. If the people in them are recognisable you have to be very careful how the pictures are used.

We do use them on our own website, and the local paper use a few, but beyond that people get real jumpy about pictures of kids. Even 14 stone 6ft tall rugby playing 'kids' who are all bigger than me.


I also took my camera to a Sale Sharks v Northampton game and they told me to put it away! Sky own the copyright at all games they record (and presumably pay for), so even if you get any pictures you can't use them anywhere.
