Hello Everyone Happy New year to one and all. I think we are all in one piece. Dear me what a time Carol in Hospital me with some wretched flu virus and feeling awful. Virtually all my folks with some cold or other lol My Goodness what a Carry on!!! Anyway We have been looking at what we have here site wise and although its ok I can't always get it behave on Mobile devices, these boards are fully optimised for mobile use and on the whole do behave, even when you switch to desktop view and all the twitter feeds have stayed live and we are able to tweet/ like and retweet straight from these feeds saves so much time. However our Google site plays silly idiots on mobile and the Buttons almost never work and the content jumps all over the place and this drives me mad!! So for last 5 or 6 weeks I have been looking at what is out there to be able to at least upgrade to better although I have always maintained unless you are a thriving business you shouldn't need to spend much money to make it or keep it decent there is enough out there to suffice and some! Plus with Social Media so readily available you can soon make things known as it were, so don't always have to rely completely on a search engine for people to find you. So I have come up with a site that does behave on Mobile , well it has so far in that the content stays where it is and I am able to edit it independently of the desktop software which is awesome really. The Animation doesn't transfer but its all there on desktop. So lets see how it goes before I move it to a domain ! Have a gander! garethsofine.wixsite.com/gareth-p-gatesLove Deb xxx |

Just looked via the computer, and its lovely Debs, you are truly great at what you do. Having Gareth singing and the waves of sea as well gives it a truly wonderful atmosphere. I am going to take a look from my phone as well, but thanks again for all your hard work, and well Done!

i have not posted for a while, but am glad I came on today, not only because I read Ann's report and saw her pictures, but to be updated by you Debbie. Very sorry to hear you have had the flu, and also that Carol was in hospital! I hope you are both recovering now. Yes I have looked at your new proposed site Debbie, all pages of it, and I like it very much. I often wondered why Gareth's official site was silent, so having his music on the home page of yours is a great idea. it's a definite thumbs up from me, and i apologise for not posting more often, you all do a great job on this site.

Nicola x Hello Nicola I am glad you like it, you post when you can but you are always about, good enough for me  Life is busy, and I did listen, as you have said so many times to me "Why can't I hear Gareth sing" well you can now on the home page its due to switch every Month so we get to hear lots of his music through the months and it can be altered by the person looking if they don't want to listen, that bit is giving me an issue at the moment so have left the sound on YouTube that's a stopgap until I can get the other software to work, well no that's not fair actually it does work but not how I want it too lol There is always something lol I think we are all on the road to recovery, well I hope so. Love Deb x |

Great work Debs. love Carol xxx Hi Carol Thank You Its coming together isn't it? Finally!!! You know me, I can't just settle for it unless I have managed to get everything out of it that I can find , I think then its a nod to the software company, Wix, it perfectly showcases who its about, Gareth, and there's a little bit of us in the "walls" from building it, that's why I always start with a blank page , get frustrated, lose sleep, have hissy fits all over when I can't make summat happen, then do it straight away 2 days later lolololol Yes its coming together........ Love Deb xxx |

Thanks for all your hard work,looking forward to posting more in 2018 XMaureen Hi Maureen Thank you so much for that Its coming along , There is a lot on there but hopefully its all to the good , I get so many PM's on here from people trying to find Fates and can't find the stammer stuff can't find Holland & Barrett for the tea don't live by the store etc so I thought it best to have some pointers on the new site to help out with that! Then Gareth and co can start helping them Thanks Again Love Deb xxx |
