Glad you all enjoyed it. Maybe I can motivate hubbie to put the bag load of photos we still have on the site. Maybe I should learn to do it myself. Now there's a challenge for someone who has no idea about constructing web sites:scared:

Actually we are presently biting our fingernails down to the quick waiting for a decision on our PR application, so the web site comes in second place.

Nice site,

shame my visually impaired colleague is totally unable to access it.

Still, who cares about blind people, not you obviously.

Have just spent a most enjoyable lunch break reading your Chronicles. I like your sense of humour and I loved the ute story.

Keep up the good work!

Whatever happened to it?

Renth, thanks for the info. Spoke to hubbie and he said he hadn't thought about that aspect before and maybe next time if the site isn't geared just to our family he will look at the info you suggest

Sue48, 99.999% of the WWW pages you encounter online have both text and pictures, not just blank pages with Flash. There's a reason for that.

No worries, and I'm sorry if I came over a little "brusque"
