FOOTNOTE: If you can't get through to a particular site, but get a message such as "The page cannot be displayed", try again later because it may be just a short term network problem. Some sites get bombarded with visits at peak times, and those are spread across the world's time-zones - whilst it might be quieter after midnight in the UK, it's still early evening then in the States for example.

If a site remains inaccessible, however, the site may have changed its web address or been discontinued:-
Links direct from this site: Please advise me by e-mail of any broken link not already marked []. If a site has moved, a page left at the old address may tell you where it's moved to. Again, please e-mail me the details to link to the new address directly (to save time and in case the re-direction page is removed).
Links from another site: Look for an e-mail address quoted for you to advise the webmaster of that site.
