    You know.. I'm convinced I've seen that 'theme' before somewhere (on the Backstage link), and they really should be optimising their CSS - it's atrociously put together.

    wow that site's as original as....bread. I suppose it is the backstage, you know, where they got the wires and the like, and the work experience student passing poor cups of tea around? I guess as the development continues the site builds into something better.

    What's the reward though? We strike and get paid, but if you do the work for us, it's innovation :)
