Spoot on with tis write-up, I seriously feel this amazzing
site needs mmuch more attention. I’ll probably bee back again to read through more, thanks for the info!
Thank you for your comment! We agree, this site could do with more attention, although it is fairly new, beginning this year with the news of Series 6. Some of the more recent pages do need some work to them such as the Historical eras pages. Right now we are working on the sketch pages (along with Series 6) before anything else, but hopefully over the summer the website will improve with complete pages. I’m glad you like the Series 6 stuff, stay tuned for more, and let us know what you think of the website and how we could improve it.
Again, thanks’ for the comment! -The HHTV Team
