was I 'allowed' to cut/paste Stuart's stuff from there onto here?
Stuart can answer that best, but quoting ideally should be done with the author's permission, though it's good that you acknowledged the source and that there's a linkto Stuart's site. However, the source page is often best, in this case collinwood.net's news page.
Here's the forum policy regarding copying from here:
9. Distributing articles, photos, personal information or opinions that have been posted on this forum without first obtaining the poster's permission may result in loss of posting privileges. Please don't assume that because a writer has chosen to express his/her opinion on any of these Internet forums that they would allow it to appear elsewhere. If a post consists of an article or photo, linking to it from another location is preferable and would be much appreciated.
Similarly, none of the images/graphics displayed on the forum may be utilized in any way, shape or form without prior written permission.That's in the guidelines that all cousins agreed to during registration, but everyone can consider this a reminder.
