Great website Ann, we look forward to using it, would be nice to see some photos from other Northern herds at some stage, but photo competition was great to see,
regards
Tim

Hi Tim thanks for the comments, hopefully now we are live we will get more members adding their details. If I can get someone to take pictures at our calf show we will put them on to.

With my copy editor's hat on, some attention to the use of the apostrophe and further punctuation would improve the, otherwise, well-written text.

Quite so, Louisa,
But should your third comma be after otherwise or well-written??

Duncan, with pedant hat on, "otherwise" is within brackets as it could be removed from the sentence without altering the sense.

Ah, the invisible brackets. I have bruised my head on those a few times.

Not invisible parentheses, the commas are providing the same function in this instance.
Dragging this thread back on topic, I'm absolutely delighted to see the North of England group have a functioning website again, which is most attractive. I was merely raising a petty niggle after marking far too many undergraduate essays.
