Please delete any old bookmark such as this and rebookmark using the new home page or a subsidiary page linked to this similarly suffixed 'php'
- October 2010
Drop down menus have now been introduced as standard on all pages on the site. Please see the note below regarding problems that might be encountered with older browsers
- January 2010
Drop down menus have now been introduced at the top of this & the Home page which will become standard on all pages as they are modified in future, now that the latest version of Internet Explorer (8) can manage these without requiring browser specific modifications to the HTML coding. This does however mean that those of you using older versions of IE and other older non standards compliant browsers will only see the top level solid bar below the page heading, that will not expand when the mouse hovers over it, leaving remaining options in the drop down bars hidden. However for the present any page where these changes are introduced will still retain a full range of old style menu buttons at the bottom
