320touring Posted September 15, 2014 Author Share Posted September 15, 2014 Did you brake? Indeed I did.. my 10* stone meant the acceleration was somewhat rapid. Gives you a good idea of the speed and severity of the course-twas awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
320touring Posted September 16, 2014 Author Share Posted September 16, 2014 Those of you who have been kind enough to read the posts, can I ask for your feedback on the following: 1. What do you think of the page design-is it easy to read the text? Is the background colour ok? 2. Is the site simple to navigate? 3. Do you feel that the articles are of a suitable length-or are they too long/short? 4. Is my writing style ok, or do you find it annoying? 5. Are there any other changes you'd make? Thanks for the support and feedback- i'll be getting pt 3 of Hairdresser's guide to the Europes up soon, and possibly a review or two as well:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
320touring Posted September 16, 2014 Author Share Posted September 16, 2014 In the absence of any feedback, I'm gonna assume I'm doing ok so far. Here's part 3- let me know what you think;) http://fuguttycars.wordpress.com/2014/09/16/the-hairdressers-guide-to-the-europes-pt3/ I'm finding this good fun- hope you're finding it worth the reading!

Jim Bergerac Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Just read the three parts of the trip. Thoroughly enjoyed reading it. The style is pretty good in my opinion, quite engaging for the reader which is what you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunno what the script is re "Liking"- still new to all this blog malarky. cheers for reading though:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CreepingJesus Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 It's a good read, well done. Wouldn't worry too much about the backgrounds'n'that, the presentation's okay.Don't sites like Wordpress and so on use things like Disqus for comments? Maybe that's the problem. 320touring 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CreepingJesus Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Disqus alone is a PITA: but at least when you've got an account, you get notifications thro email. Which is a bit daft if it's a big news site you're commenting on, but for an occasional blog like yours, it might keep readers in touch. Swings'n'roundabouts...! 320touring 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
