I understand I am just "playing" at what a lot of you lot do for a living 
however I am sure you all are
forever learning stuff even now..... I always find it difficult to explain 
something I have a so-called
expertise in without getting critical ( but very infrequently I fail AND do 
get critical rather than constructive)

So for future reference alternative solutions in addition to a critique of 
those issues raised along with more constructive
and positive language I guess would help a lot more.... there is always the 
perennial problem of convincing
the client that having a wanky IP display on the page is a bad thing and 
also ripping the hit counter from
their clutches....

THANKS for the tip about "click here"s.... I have eradicated them
THANKS for the tip about xx-small
Suggested to them ditching the pointless index page
The contact form is now well reduced in width

The site architecture was inherited BTW

Generally thanks for all your positive input.......
