Happy Christmas to my visitors!
10th December, 2005
A couple of embellishments to the above page. Christmas decorations put up on home page. I really must look at that tenth bulb from the left!
9th December, 2005
19th November, 2005
Any news in the new year (2006) will be on another page, as this one seems to
be getting a bit long now! There will be a link to it, however, from this page.

A few articles of interest, which will possibly only appeal to a small number of visitors around the area of Willingale, Essex, can be found here.
30th July, 2005

27th July, 2005
All pages now have static backgrounds (I think!)
Some typos on recent pages corrected.

22nd July, 2005
A walk added the the "walking pages" from Tilty, going through the Eastons - (Essex of course!)

1st June, 2005
Don't worry, your browser isn't misbehaving! There are a few changes to the backgrounds (they're now mostly static, while just the page contents scroll.) The remaining pages will be changed over the next day or two.
E-mail link on home page changed to include various feed-back options.

Links page split to make navigation easier. Notably, the on-line casinos element has now got its own page due to an increasing demand for these.

23rd April, 2005
Oh dear, my ipstats link has been dormant for some days now (don't know what's happening there.) What do I do?
__________________________________________________________________
15th April, 2005
Missing contents added to the site map page.
Some silly typos also corrected!

4th March, 2005
Found a few minor bugs navigating the site. Hopefully fixed now

9th February, 2005
Galleries now all 1024x768.
__________________________________________________________________
2nd February, 2005
The augmentation of the photo galleries' picture resolution from 800x600 to 1024x768 is still a work in progress, but it's nearly complete. Just three galleries left to go!
In doing this, when I say 1024x768, I mean the appropriate browser resolution (this has actually worked out at 994x663 for a "1024x768" picture!)

General
So much discrepancy between my site counters that I might remove them, just leaving the "IPstat II" one, as it seems the most accurate.
__________________________________________________________________
21st January, 2005
Some of the earlier photo galleries expanded for viewing, so as to be "in synch" with the later ones with their higher resolution. This is an ongoing thing, so keep coming back to see the latest!
Some additional content added to some of these early galleries, as I've been going through the original photos while doing the above!!
Watch out for a new gallery of one of London's major landmarks coming soon!
P.S. I know there are still a few text links to be replaced with buttons, please be patient!

7th January, 2005
Decorations taken down (a day late!)

17th December, 2004
I'm in a bit of a dilemma as to know what to do with my home page hit counters. My main one (coolcounters) is in serious conflict with the "ipstat" one. I've put an independent temporary counter at the bottom of the home page. This may change a few times yet. Please be patient if you're sad enough to visit the site just to check visitor numbers (like I do!)

13th December, 2004
Put up Christmas decorations on home page.
__________________________________________________________________
11th-12th December, 2004
More buttons added on various pages.
__________________________________________________________________
10th December, 2004
Please excuse me for some inconsistencies over the next few days as I'm making a few changes to the site. Major text links will be gradually replaced by buttons.
Also got to sort the Christmas decorations out soon. Still have them from last year (got to see if all the bulbs still work!!)
6th December, 2004
1000th site visitor today!
3rd December, 2004
The home page has a new look with Windows XP style buttons instead of text links. More of these buttons to come on other pages when I get time.
22nd-23rd November, 2004
The link page has been split - The new part of it is totally dedicated to LinkPartners sites.
20th November, 2004
Another problem with the London City Churches sorted. The problems here have been due to some previews sharing the same filenames as those on the Southend gallery.
13th November, 2004
A photo gallery taken around Cambridge added. Surely one of the greatest "seats of learning" in the World?
10th November, 2004
A somewhat embarrassing conflict workaround for some previews in the London City Churches gallery which displayed previews from Southend on sea!
22nd October, 2004
18th October, 2004
Some of the existing Devon galleries augmented also.

Solid backgrounds now on photo gallery pages behind thumbnails (after they've loaded.) This makes life easier for reading the picture commentaries.

A new look for moving between pages using MSIE
14th December, 2003
Christmas decorations "put up" on home page!
13th December, 2003
This site has essentially been converted from one I had on Geocities. I felt the need to go for something with more web space. No annoying adverts (apart from guest books, counters etc.) I also got annoyed with the visitors' activities causing the site to "lock out", because it had "exceeded its transfer quota"!
Nothing really to report at the moment, but when it happens you'll be the first to know!
