I am finally dragging my website kicking and screaming into the 21st Century. Because the current site is all handwritten HTML, it takes a long time to do additions and updates. I have wanted to change to a Content Management System site for a long time but the free web space provided by my service provider doesn't support the MySQL database needed for CMS sites.  However, I have recently discovered that there is a CMS programme that doesn't use a MySQL database and will run in Virgin Media's web space.

Because my current Blueyonder site is part of the Virgin group, changing to the Virgin web space will mean the old site will go. So, for the time being, I am testing the new site on my son in law's unused Virgin space. When the new site is up to date I will migrate to my own space. This will mean the site address will change, but I will give plenty of notice before changing over.

In the mean time, if you want a preview of the new site take a look Here. I welcome any comments or suggestions. Please note that there is still a lot to add and many of the menu items will only lead to blank pages as yet.
