The Website

The contents of the different sections of this website can be deduced from the navigator block at the head and end of each page. However the members section requires some further explanation. The intention is that it will be entirely based on members submissions. This can be in the form of articles, short notes, stories, or reviews of books and/or events or just drawing attention to items that may be of interest to other members. Articles previously published some time ago could be due for a new lease of life and a new readership.

Members with suitable items and/or suggestions should contact the webmaster e.g. by clicking    

It is the firm intention that this site will have fresh items replacing ones Items in the archives will only be available via the site search engine located at the bottom of this welcome page which will access the whole of the that have served their time - these will be transferred to an archive section on the site.

The minimum acceptable resolution for the display is 800x600 pixels but higher resolutions are desirable. Two old style fonts have been used for documents with simulated medieval formats - "Old English Text MT" and "Lucida Calligraphy". These fonts are worth acquiring if they are lacking in your computer. Members consult the webmaster.

Adjacent is a Site Searcher. Here you can enter keywords or phrases and the searcher will locate these in any of the documents on site. Wild cards may be used. Thus Tiverton, Keith Stenner, 1439, Sam* or ??erica are valid entries. No large download is required and results are obtained speedily Points are allocated by the searcher to documents in which the key words occur. The document with the highest score contains the most important occurences of the key words.
