As you may have noticed, I am redesigning this thing at the moment - partly to hopefully to make it more readable and partly because I'm bored of looking at it. Rather than "take it off line" I am doing this as I go along. This may mean somethings are missing. If so, stay with me, normal service will be returned as soon as possible.
By the way, should you think this is worse or better let me know via twitter. Thanks
