Thank Yous
Lots of Support
Since starting this project on 23rd July 2000, I have found a lot of help and enthusiasm from local people. I would like to thank all who have helped me, but especially:
- All of those who have put useful comments in the Guestbook. You have helped enormously.
- Duncan Mitchell for 500MB of webspace at Eskia Computers, Oxspring. Mostly used for video and sound media.

- David Mackrill, (Don Press) for help with Penistone Almanacks and old photographs.
