pedantic people wanted to nit pick at my new website.

yeah its pink, so what.
there is an overlap fault on the commercial page benefit 1 and 4 but other than that it seem ok, but i know what you guys are like so i'm sure you'll find something for me.

can anyone find any typos or anything else, ie... not working in certain browsers etc.... any faults reported will be greatly recieved

ps.... mike halliday, do you like the job i did on the leather page, i did a well good job on that leather suite don't ya think ;D
pps... i'll change it if it bothers you but mark put it there and said you'll be ok with it

Derek, use any of my photos I don't mind.

on the home page I think the pink writing on the brown background is hard to read, just looked at the other pages and they are all the same, the heading at the top, pink on brown is hard to read.

can't agree on the pink on brown, even my wife says its easily readable and shes as blind as a bat, hence she married me, ;D
unless the colours appear different seen in different browsers?

February spelt wrong on special offers page.

Like Mike says the pink is hard to read on the brown, but I do like the pink theme it's a bit different.

Having trouble reading some of the text on my browser, some of the black text is sitting on top of other text even on the highest text size - could be my laptop though, about 3 years old now, maybe time to upgrade to a different browser.

Think the site looks good mate - I don't care for the truckmount v portable bit, but then I would say that as I run a Ninja - but if I had a TM then I would push the benefit also. (Does it really cost £ 50k ?)

I like your site.

I have never been to keen on the 20X power thing when promoting truckmount service.
I personally think if you are going to state 20x the power then the maths should work out.

You have 2hp versus 64hp. My calculations make that 32x the power.

Pedantic enough for you  :)

The cleaning of fabric is the most challenging of all the work we undertake, we always recoomend a home consultation to correctly identify the fibre and any discuss any problems

Derek its like you spotting the mistakes on my site, I read it a 100 times and not spotted them.

the problem is when you read what you have written YOU DON'T ACTUAL READ IT!!  your mind knows what it is supposed to say, so that's what it 'reads'

Looks very good Derek, I like the pictures as they paint a thousand words, the leather sofa in particular!

I'm a lazy sod when it comes to reading to be honest, so I didn't spot any smelling pistakes ;D ;D ;D
