The link to my web site, Next Train's Gone, is now incorrect on this page. The site is http://www.willhay.co.uk/
- Erm, if the link is wrong, then edit the damned thing! Don't worry - I'll do it for you on this occasion. Zaphod Beeblebrox 16:33, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
A note was added on 20th July 2006 (Brownlee) that Hay's telescopes were bequeathed to University College London (i.e. Mill Hill Observatory)and are still used for teaching astronomy. What was this note based on? The fate of Hay's largest telescope is well known and it is still in use near Oxford. The fate of his 6 inch refractor has always been a mystery. Hay's friend, Fry, donated a large 8" refractor to UCL, and the 6 inch Joynson refractor is not Hay's.....so was this line added on the basis of fact or speculation? Hay lived very close to Mill Hill Observatory in his final years, but that is the only connection I know of.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Will-Hay.jpg
Image:Will-Hay.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
