Hello,

Quite a number of years ago I was looking for someone to develop an 
e-commerce website for me.  I was recommended by someone at at Hereford 
open-day Huw Griffiths.  He did a good job, but the site has a few 
glitches with the jigoshop.  It probably needs the updates to be 
installed.  I have tried to email him and he has changed his phone.

I would be grateful for either being able to contact Huw OR for a 
recommendation for someone to help me.

Many thanks,

Michael
