Could you assist with the maintainance of this page?

I am looking for a couple of volunteers to assist with the updating and maintainance of this page.

Full training will be given (once I’ve worked out how myself). A couple of minutes a day/every couple of days. All you need is to pick the news/highlights from the forum, create a post here and link to the forum.

Good spelling and correct use of grammar would be an advantage

Please email me (bill@fun-fairs.co.uk) or PM via the forum.

Many thanks

What is this new page??

April 29th, 2009

Dear All

All The Fun Of The Fair used to have a home page that had masses of information, links etc - part of that site was the message forum. With so little time, I did away with the home page and just had the forum available.

Since then I have been looking for a replacement home page that could be used for news, links etc. Wordpress allows just that, with the added feature that it can be updated by Moderators, rather than just myself (as with the old page).

It is still in the experimental stage - please bear with me whilst I work out whether it would be a suitable replacement, and whether others can assist with the upkeep!

All the best

Bill
