Revisions and Site History


This Website was first started in June of 1998 and first uploaded on the 27th June 1998.

The original site only consisted of a small website for the Sale Horticultural and Allotment Society and was very basic. I continued to do work on it in bits and pieces. The last upload of this section was on the 16th February 1999. This section was removed in August 1999 when I resigned from the committee.

Since then I have been concentrating on the main site.

As the site got bigger I decided to add this revision page to keep track of the various updates.
