Programme (from 2005).
Thanks & appreciation to James Hobro for diligently having compiled this in HTML !
And for setting-up a lovely early form of website layout. Sadly its active contribution transpired for that year's event only.
The present site on Weebly retains James's initial inspiring ideas in new layouts: with flexibility to give access by other writers.
