For a number of years this task has been undertaken very successfully by Geoff Mullett and he has set a high standard to be maintained. During 2008 Geoff decided it was time to call a halt to his support of Severnside website and the task to find a replacement was passed to Jill Fysh.
Jill in her usual fashion persuaded a “willing” volunteer to consider taking on this task. I was approached and my response was along the lines of we need a Web Master but not me. However, Jill won’t give up at the first hurdle and to cut a long story short I “volunteered” to take over from Geoff.
The task involved purchase of Web Design software, transfer of the Severnside domain name and setting up of a hosting service to allow the site to be accessible on the internet. The transfer was completed and a new site up and running at www.severnside-ramblers.org.uk
The assistance provided by Geoff during the transfer was invaluable and his help was very much appreciated.
I’ve never designed a website or even considered it was something I would like to do, but having taken on the responsibility, created a new site and published it on the internet it is a task that I find very rewarding. I’m very grateful for the information, photographs and help provided by Severnside Members who have contributed to the site.
So back to the purpose, if there are any news items, local information or events relevant to Severnside please forward details to webmaster@severnside-ramblers.org.uk and I will incorporate into the website.
