    Sorry, not relevant to the topic but PLEASE could anyone help? There appear to have zillions of changes in the laayout since I last logged on. I don't want any of the subjects - please can someone just tell me what I have to do to reach the start of the competitions section.I've looked but I'm darned if I can find it. Excuse stupidity - but I really do want someone to hold my hand and walk me there! Thank you! x
