This is thy negligence: still thou mistakest, Or else committ'st thy knaveries wilfully.

    Looks like the search engine links are not working now.

    Cellar V, as Tommy Atkins would say.

    I noticed today that there were changes on the CWGC site from yesterday. At the time I was searching for Cemeteries and their results page is now presented differently (giving locality etc on list of possible results), as well as the cemetery details page itself (multiple photos).

    Was saving some (GIF) links of cemetery plans and after searching again more seem to be offered instead as pdfs.

    ...as well as the cemetery details page itself (multiple photos)...


    On Firefox, the photo covered the navigation buttons that should be displayed below it. So it was not possible to view the casualties after a cemetery search. Was OK on IE and Opera.

    There seems to be a lot of work going on, so hopefully the broken links will be negligence rather than knavery.

    Also noticed layout glitches, not pretty. More tinkering to come!

    Have to admit, I had to search for the line as I'd never remember the exact wording to quote.

    Brilliant play!

    So WW2Talk is not so far behind Shakespeare then !

    I see why not Geoff. There are many wonderful wordsmiths on WW2Talk, among which I don't count myself ... :p

    Yes, they're still tinkering
    Text message overwritten on photo now, so they#re still trying to sort things out.

    They don't seem to have much success at even replicating what GSE does, let alone enhancements!
    It's getting a bit like the space race isn't it?
    The Americans spending millions to develop a pen that works in zero gravity, the Russians used a pencil...... allegedly!

    Should be good when it's finished (I like to keep things simple).
