ALCOHOLICS Anonymous Limerick Areas (AA) is holding its 32nd annual convention in Limerick Strand Hotel, Ennis Road from Friday February 3 to Sunday 6. The purpose of this convention is to carry the message of recovery to alcoholics who are members and to those who still suffer. It also gives members of the fellowship an opportunity to share their combined experiences, to renew old acquaintance and to make new ones. The theme of this year’s convention is gratitude.
Alex O'Neill, solicitor for Lawlink, answers a readers query.
Q. I recently attended my office Christmas party, where a colleague was taking photos all night. Following the event, pictures of me were posted on Facebook that showed me in a less than flattering light. Colleagues in the office are also making very nasty remarks about me. I think the photos undermine my professional standing and I am worried that my employers or clients of the office will see them. Can I do anything to force my colleague to take these pictures down?
