Just to let everyone know that we are experimenting with a fixed width size for the site, instead of having it spread out right across the screen. It makes things more legible and easier to navigate when things aren't all spread out as they were, especially with a lot of people now having wide screen monitors. You'll notice most sites are fixed width like this, such as ebay, the bbc, etc etc.

We'll try to find a nice new background in due course to replace the default grey.

It's funny, Chris, I use a wide screen monitor and I always have the internet screen reduced to half size because I don't like the web pages so spread out, so I didn't notice the change at first. Lol.

You are right, it is easier to see and to navigate when the content is more compact. Thank you.
