Hi all

Sounds like a good idea to me.

I thought the refs page was so good, that I have added a link to it at
the top of both my county pages. I just copied the whole paragraph to
be after the intro paragraph at the top. I think I will put a link at
the bottom as well (where I also have the main lookup link, the England
lookup link, the county GENUKI, the feedback response link). You never
know where it will catch someone's eye.
