30 January 2005  Hit count 1728.  All righty then  . . . a major catch-up underway now.  A fair bit of work to do, which will probably take a matter of weeks rather than days.  So far, I've created this separate page for "What's New?" rather than having it on the Home page.  The Contest page has been re-named National Contest 2003, and subsequent contests will be labelled according to year.  I'm also revising the button layout, and you may notice some inconsistencies between pages until this is completed.
