I'm sorry if you tried to get onto the website last week and could not. This was due to the fact that a hacker decided it would be good fun to cripple our small website. As a result I had to completely remove the whole of the site from our hosting server and rebuild the site from scratch. This took a lot of work and time I could have done without, still it is now all working. If members have any problem in loggin on please contact me and I will sort it out.

Hope you all have a good 2013 season and hope the weather both warms up and dries up.
