Richard Barr's Recurrent Memory Problems

It seems that Richard Barr - the strikingly photogenic solicitor pictured below - has a recurrent problem with forgetting to disclose things.

Of the commercial websites he controls, how many do you think are incorrectly registered as belonging to a "non-trading individual"?

The answer - it goes without saying - is all of them*!

Richard Barr's brother also runs a website. He uses it to flog copies of his latest best-selling** novel, The Carp Club - The Election That Never Was.

Can you see where I'm going with this...?

Forgetfulness often runs in the family, or at least in the blood family. Richard Barr's stepson somehow managed to remember to comply with his responsibilities.

Barr's fellow Director of the Society of Homeopaths, Mike Andrews, runs a site that's also in full compliance with Nominet's disclosure rules.

One of the reasons for Mike's admirable honesty, of course, is that he had already been caught out eleven months ago - along with ninety-nine of his colleagues!

* The words "all of them" carry the meaning "all of the commercial websites controlled by Richard Barr, which have come to my attention". If anyone knows of any besides the three mentioned above, I would be glad to hear about them.

**Contrary to appearances, the word 'best-selling' is not intended to be satirical. As of the time of writing, The Carp Club is flying off the shelves, and has already reached 1,094,582th place in Amazon's bestseller ranks.
