Hi Chris Regarding the new web site, would it be possible to add a photo to the drawings of each of the subjects listed under " click below for further info on the Museum. a few have photos already. These I think show better the subjects and speak louder than line drawings. Otherwise OK as far as I am concerned.

You will see that our website now features the Google custom search which should help visitors to find the information they require. I think now might be an opportune moment to give you the URL of the new draft site and invite you to comment on it - content, layout, ease of navigation etc. The developer is Lotty Wheeler who has been very patient with us so far. Her site can be found at http://rural.mywpadmin.co.uk/ What I would particularly like is if the interested members of this list could form a small team to work with Lotty on getting the new site just right and ready to launch to our waiting public. (Obviously the governing body of the museum will have the final say of when we go live.) If you are interested in helping with this important task please let me know and I'll set the process up.
