It was on BBC Radio this morning that taking photographs of children at a
school concert was illegal under Data Protection. I know we all knew that
but no doubt most people turn a blind eye (as I did when the University
nursery children sang around the Christmas tree and all the grannies and
parents were happily snapping away and including all manner of passers by)
as the implications of trying to stop people are horrendous!
