    Hi Weezl

    Tomorrow I am taking DD to her Dad's. So Essex to Surrey & back by public transport. (I'm not really fit enough to face driving on the M25 yet & anyway Mum wants to borrow my car, as hers has packed up). So won't be around most of the day.

    But Sunday, no DD & no work! Plan on having a long lie in & watching some not too taxing TV. So don't expect too much of me in the morning. But after that I'll be happy to help with some checking, if you want to assign me some tasks. :)

    Heads up for 2 tv programmes for September

    The Food Show, channel 4 Jay Rayner and Anna Richardson delve into the world of food. and answer questions such as "How can we eat cheaply without eating rubbish" and "Is organic worth it?"

    I'd offer to help but I'm not at all up to speed on what you're doing. But if I can be useful proofreading or anything that doesn't require knowledge of what you're up to, then I'm happy to help.

    Also, do you still need recipes testing or are you way past that now?

    Hi Weezl

    I received the invite, downloaded Dropbox & accessed (by trial & error) the test site.

    Was there anything specific you wanted checked, or just a general mooch around to see if all OK?

    wow well done! took me a while to get my head round it!

    the main differences are via the recipes page and the meal planners page, and all the stuff relating to kitty is what needs testing.

    Please don't feel a pressure to click everything but all edits are welcomed.

    There's a word document called snags list that you can add to, but not in pink or I'll miss it!

    Many, many thanks :D

    No problem. I managed to access the snag doc too! :) But it is a bit late after a busy week to get my head round it now. So will approach it fresh on Sunday. I may need to ask more questions then, but won't think about it until then.

    Same here - have downloaded and had a quick look but too tired tonight for me to be useful. Tomorrow's another day though!

    Just checking - should I be viewing the test site via the downloaded files in the Dropbox folder on my PC? Cos I couldn't get it to work like a normal website when I tried viewing the via the files on the Dropbox website.

    P.S - it looks great and I think this might make me hungry! :)
