News and Updates
June 4, 2017
Most of you will have noticed that there hasn’t been any updates on the site for several months now. The reason for this is that the software that the site used for many years became obsolete and stopped working and there was no way of contacting the company that produced it. I had intended to do a gradual rebuild on new software anyway and this forced my hand a bit.
I found some new software to use and all was going well until I was about 75% of the way through and the whole thing crashed and I lost the lot. This had taken me a couple of months and made me so mad that I had to keep away from it for a week.
I started again and, finally, with a few hitches along the way, the site is up and running again. It is in pretty much the same place as it was but is now possible to update again. I have got dozens of new files and updates to put on and I will be doing this over the next couple of weeks, so if anyone has submitted anything, it will be on the site soon.
Apologies for the long time the site has been on hold but it has been largely due to circumstances beyond my control allied to a bit of naivety on my part having not had a back up file.

There have been a few teething troubles with the site and thanks to all who have pointed out the links that were not functioning properly. It has taken some working out why, but we think we have solved it and things should be better from now on. As I go along there will be other bits that I will sort out -
Anyway, for now there are updates on the site for Norwich 1957, Ipswich 1957, the Norwich needs page, Wigan 1952, Fleetwood 1948 and 1950, Stoke 1950, Belle Vue 1949, Walthamstow 1949, Walthamstow needs page, Wolverhampton 1952.
More to follow later this week…
