A convenient grey Recent Changes button is on the homepage and is
linked to this webpage update log. It enables regular visitors
to the V8 website to see which webpages have been added or changed
since their last visit in one click.
This webpage update log began on 30th August 2003 based on
a suggestion from Dr Gavin Bailey. Many small detail changes and corrections
are made which account for around two thirds of the changes to the
V8 Website, so only the material webpage changes of interest to
members are recorded on the log above. Earlier postings have been
archived. See links below.
The V8 Website is the most active and regularly updated website for

Humphrey Lyttleton
Sadly Humphrey Lyttleton died on Friday 25 April 2008 following an operation.
He was a much loved radio presenter and jazz musician and much more. His career
covered trumpeter, clarinettist, bandleader, broadcaster, writer, journalist and
calligrapher, cartoonist (Daily Mail 1949-53) and chairman of the Radio 4 antidote
to panel games, "I'm Sorry I Haven't Clue" from 1972-2008. Our series
of webpages on the V8 Website captures much of the fun that was the man, not least
his Samantha jokes. More
