British Council versus Pixar to go to appeal

Posted on 07/03/2011 by alexcase

The British Council’s attempts to sue Pixar for up to 545 million pounds for stealing the storyline to all three Toy Story films from the LearnEnglishKids song “Old Scruffy Teddy” will go on to the High Court next month. In reply to questions about a public organisation indulging in such action at a press conference today, the BC spokesman said “We are a non-profit organisation and so we can guarantee that the money will go to worthy causes. We already have a provisional plan in place to spend most of the money on making life more comfortable for staff on hardship postings. For example, the head office staff who were moved to Manchester will finally be able to move back to London”.

    This is a joke, right?

    Hey Alex, why can’t commenters delete their comments on your blog? What should I do if I’m still half-asleep and I post something dumb?

    Not sure why, to be honest. Think that one might be WordPress’s fault. I guess the only thing to do is to post an even sillier comment to distract from the first one…
