The six-year legal battle between oil giant Shell UK and sales promotion company Don Marketing has finally been settled.
John Donovan, owner of Don Marketing, yesterday dropped his High Court action against the company over allegations that Shell stole his ideas for the Shell Small Card, a multi brand loyalty card.

Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
