For our Club it should more accurately be stated as "A few good Men and Women" and I am referring specifically to this website, although there are many other examples where the club has shown great progress in the last few years. The old site, I may have referred to once in a blue moon and for more specific Club information, I would have picked up the phone and asked the questions. On this version, I refer to it many times a week, primarily for the event calendar and upcoming events, but as I become more familiar with the site, I tend to stay longer and read more. My congratulations to those involved, for their vision to make it happen, their long hours, hard work and their diligence in keeping it up to date. Contributions from more members will add to the success of this site and if a confirmed sceptic like me can contribute, there is hope for other members. “A few good men” has been an oft used phrase during history to celebrate daring deeds, or examples of exellence.

I have now out a login for members on the website. You are right in saying the password problem needs to be addressed. I will look into it. Thank you for the comments Peter.

I look forward to it going live on the main site. I will, in the fullness of time, contribute more images to the site. However I would like to see a lot more contributors first. We have a sizeable number of our more,(normally), prominent members who have yet to contribute their profiles, let alone gallery images! No names, but you know who you are. Lets see some action THIS season! Regardng feedback etc. :- Speaking only for myself I look at the main site several times a week. I suspect many others do the same. Finding out how to log on, is challenging. You not only need to find the cunningly concealed "log on" button but you also need to know the password. In addition you have to have your profile already on the site so that you will be recognised. I suspect that a combination of the three hurdles are the main reasons for lack of feedback. If there were a prominent "LOG ON" button and members were told their password without having to ring up and ask, this would also help. Some more profiles would also be a boon.
