[WED]New Happenings On The Wedmore Web Site

[Michael Tutton]

Hi Lyn.

That's a good point about the emails just arriving, rather than having =
to be proactive.

I'll see if I can come up with a way to have people notified.

On the other hand; thanks for signing up.  I think the forum will allow =
for more people to make use of what has been shared.

Thanks Lyn.
