Hi John, Mike and anyone else who's interested, Entry to the NPS forum, open to all, is now also on the Home page of the NPS website, and so easier to find as you suggest, so you can now find it at
http://www.northumbrianpipers.org.uk/ or go straight there at http://www.northumbrianpipers.org.uk/pipersforum/ There are links to Adrian's Forum, and many other things, including more tune collections than you have time to read through, on the Links page of the NPS website http://www.northumbrianpipers.org.uk/index.php?page=Links Any other suggestions for improving the site, or volunteers to look after any sections, existing or new, gratefully accepted cheers, Tim On 3 Jul 2011, at 23:22, smallpi...@machineconcepts.co.uk wrote: > Hi John > The forum on the NPS web site is open to all (you just have to register) For > some reason it is tucked away on the members page - I think that it should be > on the front page!
