Our aim is to cover - in pictures and words - as much about the town as possible, building up an archive and showing what a great place this is to visit. If you have a digital camera and would like to contribute just let us know. We will upload your shots to the web site: all you have to do is let us have the originals on a CD or memory stick. If there's not that many, just email them as a zip file.
