So it’s all positive news. We have now appointed and are working with a Mark Alford, Chairman Manchester-based web development company called Adapt Studios. It is planned to have the “public” pages up and running before Christmas, along with the renewals section of the membership pages, and then with other functions to follow in the New Year. I would like to mention here the hard work that Christopher Smithies has put into the club’s website over the years, and his continued support and help now that the site is being redeveloped. His knowledge of how the club functions has been invaluable to the new developers. Due to financial constraints we will be continuing the development of the site over the next couple of years, gradually adding additional functionality. This will allow us to spread the cost over three years rather than absorbing it all into one. Adapt Studios will also be taking over the day to day running of the website and will deal with any maintenance and software updates as required. Of course the big news this year has been the launch by Bristol Cars of the new car, the “Bullet”.
