Hello oonagi, hope you are all well.

I've just paid up oonagi for the next two years, so you can all now rest assured that oonagi isn't going anywhere just yet. As I'm sure you know, I'm not in Thanet anymore, but I still love you all so I would like to make this an even more useful site. Nothing is going to happen for a month or so but I was talking to Jay the other day about maybe adding some sort of simple feed reader to the front here. See if we can get updates from MySpace/blogs/Twitter/Facebook and whatever social thing we all like that week. I'd love to hear what you lot think about that, but we can talk about that later if you like.

I'm also going to be running some updates over the next day or so (today being 12th March 2009). This is just the usual stuff so you'll not notice much difference, it's just so you know that there may be a little downtime.

You all take real good care of each other now and we'll speak again in a bit. xxx

Firstly, a big thanks to everyone who attended the football this year. Though we had a lower turnout than previous years it was certainly a lot of fun and we had our fair share of drama. We should all congratulate Cubs for winning and also give an honourable mention to Lakes for a commendable effort.

On perhaps a more solemn note, I want to announce that I am stepping down from organising any further football tournaments. The main reason being my distance from Thanet. Though I suspect that this means the end of the interband 5-a-side football, you have the choice to take up the mantle. If you wish to discuss what is next for the community then I shall link here to the 2008 football thread. Otherwise, I wish everyone, friend or foe, well and that is that, the end. - Kevin x

Thats right, this years band football tournament is to be held on Saturday July 26th at Dane Park, Margate. Arrival by mid-day is preferable.

To see how that date and location was arrived, plus other football goodness, visit the forum
football 2008 forum thread

There is also a football 2008 wiki page. Here you can add your band name to the roster of expected teams, as well as anything else you deem necessary.

Keep watch for details of the football gig.

Hey guys, just thought I'd point out that I have now updated the navigation (if you didn't already notice!). No real changes in the background or anything, its just for making it easier to get around.

I'm afraid that you'll still have to log in again to edit the wiki. I'll see if I can update that over the coming weeks (shouldn't take more than an hour to sort out), as well as the minor issue with the main site navigation on the wiki if you are using Internet Explorer. Though I will say that all of you Windows kids should be using either Firefox or Opera!

Anyway, like I said before, all I'm doing with the site now is stabalising it. If you have any new features that you really think I should do then please let me know (see previous posts for contact details). Otherwise, I look forward to seeing you all around the site and hopefully, on the wiki

Thanks,
Kevin

I received an email the other day about problems logging into the forum. The problem the were having was trying to log into the previous forum, so now I am going to emphasize the point. There is a new forum which is found at http://oonagi.co.uk/forum, please update your bookmarks. I hope that clears things up.

Otherwise, I've not stopped working, just been held up a little by the fact thats th holidays are over. I am currently trying to build an all encompassing navigation bar which should look a little like (EDIT) as you see above

Hope you all find that adequate, I'm trying to keep it all simple. Most of the style coding has been done, I just need to figure how to integrate it well into every part. I also want it to have a search box (I'm sure you can see the space for that) which will can be used for all parts of the site (wiki/forum/news archive/links etc) but that will have to come a little later, ie, when all those parts of the site are working well.

Ok, that it for this post. As always you are all welcome to email me (ringmain at gmail.com) with abuse, jokes, stories and perhaps even something to do with oonagi, though of course thats not a pre-req.

Take care

I've been made aware of some forum login issues (thanks Strappy Music), These have now been fixed.

Thanks for your patience.
