Website Development progress report (updated Monday 7 November 2012 at 10:30)

Below is my progress report based on the ideas we discussed when we met and the images /  information you have uploaded to DropBox. I hope the work so far fits with what you had in mind.

I will update the report as I complete tasks. Do get in touch regarding any ammendments, additions or deletions you want. This is not a complete list and will change over time.
