Gosport.info - Update April 2007

Sorry I am late putting this on, I thought I had already put it on.

1) I have been advised that the search box on the left-hand side of each page of Gosport.info has not been working, I had not noticed as I have been using the one on the 'Home Page' about half way down the page. I have copied the code from the working one and it will be updated with this weeks update, if it still does not work, I will remove it from there and add to certain pages, starting with the pages where there is a button in the navigation bar. I have also been advised that the site is now slow for dial-up users, if you find this, please let me know and I will experiment to increase the loading speed and perhaps if you do not mind you could let me know how it goes. With the search box change I have removed the Google Adsense buttons to the left as they had little income and being graphic rather than text hope that it will make a difference. If you find a particular page slow, please let me know. I have found some of the Gallery pages that should just have a thumbnail photo have some larger ones, so will also look at that. As the site is now over 1,200 and it seems odd pages that were OK do daft things, if you find something and you have time please drop me a short email with the bad page address and I will sort it out. Thank you

2) Following the successful ‘Design a Garden’ Challenge days at Brune Park Community College, we are hoping to get started on the re-build of the garden very soon but the school has a shortfall of funds and was wondering if anyone/ society, etc. would like to sponsor this project?

3) Do you ever have items that you feel you want to get rid of, are not worried about getting anything for them, but would like to know that they are going to someone who is going to make use of them. Try Freecycle http://uk.freecycle.org/ . Under ' Groups Worldwide' click United Kindom, in that list Hampshire, then the Join after Gosport. You join an e-mail list where you will receive e-mails or a daily digest (as you wish) of items available or wanted.

4) You may see the odd item such as below on this e-mail, I do not make any charge, so if you have a Gosport business or organisation, which is new or you feel would be of interest to Gosport people, please let me know. I may not be able to add due to space or other reason.

5) All Gosport, Fareham and Portsmouth residents can save up to £491 per year on their household utility bills. Guaranteed savings on home phone charges compared to BT. Guaranteed savings on your electricity compared with Southern Electricity. Guaranteed savings on your gas compared with British Gas. The best broadband package in the UK.

The only company in the UK that puts everything on one monthly bill. Superb savings on all business services.

When you hear broadband providers or your colleagues and friends talking about "wireless" they could actually

be talking about two separate things:Wireless

Networking
, having a wire free computer in the house connected to a broadband connection.
Broadband" href="http://www.broadband.co.uk/">Wireless Broadband
, this is a special kind of broadband package

where you can use it at home, but also in certain places when you are away from home. All you need is your phone

number or pastcode to see if either of these broadband connections are available and you can check it at

I found in gosport.info how to save money on phone calls. 0800 and 0808 free phone numbers cost your caller nothing and could dramatically increase the number of contacts you receive. In fact 61% of UK consumers are more likely to call a company with a 0800 numbers for free. Call charges to you start at 4ppm with volume discounts available upon request. In the light of recent Ofcom changes to 0870 numbers, 0800 freephone numbers are becoming more popular for clients who put sales generation at the top of their list.
