A few years ago I made a simple website with a different programme, but this is my first with Xara.

I have to say that for less than £50 this is a great bit of software. We’ve had a few cross words in the making of this site, but I haven’t yet found a piece of software that didn’t need a stern talking to every now and then.

Leaving aside the (fairly significant!) issues of the design and content of the site I am a bit disappointed that the little movie doesn’t want to play on the browsers that came with an LG phone and a Samsung phone, and while the text embedding seems to work it occasionally gives up on my (relatively new) Desktop. I don’t know whether it would have been better to have all the text as graphics (?) – It’s only a site for fun, but I would like to know that the people who do look at it see what I wanted them to see.

Anyway, enough rambling, here it is;
