On this part of the site we have archived articles from our parish magazine from March 2000. They are mostly the pages written by the vicar, about four each issue.
The file names refer to the date and page: the two-digit number is the year, the letter is the month, and the end part is the page. Thus "link-00c-p3.html" is page 3 of month c ( = March) of year 00.
Please bear in mind that some older articles may not include a complete list of links to more recent articles on the same subject. Also, during the period of building up this archive, you may occasionally find links to pages which haven't yet been added. If so, please click the "back" button on your browser.
