well, we seem [not seem, have] gone blue and the old somewhat sterile white layout has been retired. apologies to those of you who might have seen things changing right before your very eyes, as it were, as the css got debugged in real time while I was testing things on a windows machine... speaking of which, the blue background is probably about 15% darker than it should be when viewed on a windows machine. still not decided how [if] I am going to deal with this.

added flotsam, a gallery of things washed up on Astwood Cove... and yes, that is medical waste and yes that is a breathing apparatus of some description... the rope and the bouy are just old fashioned by comparison...
