Stickyfingers, I id see about The Grand and wrote about it. Juts spoke to them today as it was passed in for auction. Hadj said theyare really busy and that he’d get me a table if I phone so I guess I’m going on down there soon. Paul Mathis went to the auction and back on the Sunday. Spoke to him today but I’m saving the rest for Tuesday.

Guys i changed everything and I think this new one is the best of links et.c. Thanks Davy, perhaps I’ll get out another needle and try and work it into this design somehow. I’ve still a few tweaks to do.

Hey Ed, yep looks great, love the banner pic, very clever…

The layout is much more compact as well…less chance of suffering RSI using the scroll button

I like the font too, looking forward to seeing the page evolve.

Not sure if you covered this in your HS column, as I’ve been away a lot, but I noticed that The Grand in Richmond is up for sale. We’ve had some great meals there, wonder what’s going on?

The only thing I can think to say is that your hyperlinks should probably be highlighted; at the moment, all the text appears black, and it’s difficult to know when you’re linking to something.

Really, pale turqouise. I may try it. Thi is probably a temporary installation for a week or so that I will tailor. I just liked the typography used and should jazz it up a bit. It is just time.

Ed, I really love your blog, but content aside, this template looks more appropriate to a drab financial page. As someone who has been involved in food publishing, I know that galloping gastronauts and hungry people respond best to colourful pages. Curiously there’s nothing like pale turquoise to stimulate the palate.

Keep on truckin!

I like the new look, hope all goes well with the bug-hunting expedition!

Thanks matt. I should be okay. I’m going to use a new template and am just doing some poor photoshopping on the header image.
