<HTML>well, back online anyway! Hoorah still.

We've been busy whilst you've been off sunning yourself in Swindon, as you can no doubt tell. And say 'marmite' to Ben for us when you see him. He won't understand.</HTML>

<HTML>use marquee as the tag, ie between the pointy brackets. You can nest other tags inside, but it doesn't work on Netscape browsers, apparently.

Suppose this means i ought to set up my own website now...

Assuming I've got something to say...</HTML>
