Thought for the day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not having a clue how these modern computer thingies work, can anyone look into/explain the possibility of putting our excellent Town magazine onto this site?

It strikes me as being a useful addition for the benefit of visitors to Crowland Links.

Interesting suggestion, but...

It's not possible, whilst there are two distinct editorial styles and viewpoints.

In addition, it becomes quite labour intensive to take text (in the Magazine's case sourced in MS Windows and then to publisher software)and then to integrate it with the site.

Common files like PDFs are fine, but the outcome is not integration, merely a stick-on which looks quite out of place within the style of the website. Someone else tried it last year without success.

There are ways to achieve it relatively successfully, but (in my experience) there isn't a desire to achieve integration. Unless someone from The Town Magazine would like to approach us with a proposition...

But apart from the editorial styles, it's the time consuming effort required - that's why newspapers and other media outlets often have an army of people (at huge expense) just tending to the webiste alone.

What! You dont have a mass of underlings careing for this websites (and yours) ever needs...........its a disgrace! Thats what it is!

How on earth do you find the time to make Holywood look like a bunch of anorak wearing Spanish holiday home film makers I really don't not know. And care for this site!

Hmm... Spanish Holiday Home Video...



We open with cheesey musak trio, then mix to Essex boy and girl on a lie-low splashing on their fake tan... Q monotone voice over...

Now that's the one I WOULD like to shoot... DEAD!
