they have just been moved to a slightly different location for easier management, and it will take a little while for search engines to catch up.
Links within the site are (or should be!) working, however.

Our featured feline: the beautiful marmalade character taking pride of place here on our home page was a Dutch kitten called Dabbe, belonging to colleagues who worked at the same college as I was in eastern Holland. Trust a cat to find the sunniest spot! — and his stripes contrasted beautifully with the duvet he was sitting on (Dec 1989)
