Safari keeps telling me it cannot open the Mainly Norfolk website. Has it gone?

It comes up via Google (if that helps).

Thanks. That's weird. I just tried again and got a message that Safari can't establish a secure connection to the page.

My webserver error log shows batches of thousand of silly requests like mainlynorfolk.info/folk/songs/search.php/index.html/index.html/index.html/books/childindex.html/books/lawsindex.html/ in a single second each, all from the same search engine.

It may well be thst these requests overloaded the server. I hope to have redirected these requests now. Stewie, can you please try again?
And if it still persists, how current is your Safari browser? Wich version?

Amazing website.

A site I'd miss greatly - hate to see it not there (if you know what I mean)

I've just been looking at Matt Armour's song of the Generations in the East Neuk of Fife. What a song and when I'd hear Matt singing it I believed he was the man in the song. All the more proof of the songwriting. Magnificent.

I always recommend this site to workshop students. Really good in its own right, better still in conjunction with the VWML Archive, Bodleian broadsides, etc.
