17 MAY 2008 - CEMETERY PAGE NOW ONLINE:
The cemetery photos and transcriptions page mentioned directly below is now available online - there is obviously plenty of work to go as far as getting all of the family graves, headstones and transcriptions onto the site, but what I currently have available is now online at:

12 MAY 2008 - CEMETERY PAGE BEING PUT ONLINE:
I have begun putting the cemetery photos and transcriptions online - some of this information was available on the previous site, but a lot of it will be new. Visit the cemetery and transcriptions page at:

12 MAY 2008 - FAMILY TREE ONLINE:
Finally, the latest family tree update is now available right from the web site. It is quite different from the previous version of the family tree, but it allows for regular updates whenever I update the family tree. In fact, there is more than one version of the tree, depending on what perspective you wish to look at it from. Visit the family trees at:

26 APRIL 2008 - ALL PHOTOS NOW AVAILABLE:
I have now been able to get all the photos available online thanks to flickr, which has many advantages as far as my site is concerned. The move from my previous site is now complete and visitors to my site should now be able to gain access to all of the old photos from the previous site, as well as new photos that are being added to the site all of the time. To see my photos, visit the gallery listing at:

24 APRIL 2008 - INJURY PROGRESS REPORT:
I have been undergoing physio to speed up the recovery process following my car accident on the 22 February 2008 (see below). It is now 9 weeks since the accident and progress is seemingly slow, certainly by the speed of the first 6 weeks. Basically it is down to my right arm and in particular my right elbow and shoulder areas that are of most concern. It is difficult to get my arm working correctly and my shoulder isn't working much at all at the moment.
4 APRIL 2008 - SITE REVIEW AND NEW NEWS PAGE:
I have been reviewing and improving the site, including an improved news page.
4 APRIL 2008 - CASTS OFF:
It has been 6 weeks since the car accident and I got all the casts off today. I have 6 weeks to go before they declare me fully fit.
22 FEBRUARY 2008 - CAR CRASH:
I had a bad car crash on this date that nearly killed me. The car slid on loose gravel near Waukivory, hit a tree on the driver's side door and went over the side of a mountain. I suffered severe injuries and spent nearly three weeks in hospital.
