One can register with the site using the Register link on the lower right
menu (http://www.fifelug.org.uk/wp-register.php). You should be made a
contributor automatically. Subrcibe, should be subscribe or some other
spelling, but in essence anyone who registers their email with that page
will get a small email every time a new post is made. I added it for the
benefit of anyone who does not use an RSS reader. The advantage being if you
have registered, and subscribe, you can select which categories you wish you
hear about. Limiting the amount of crap emails you're likely to hear about.

This seems like a good idea. I've never heard about 'Postie' but I will have
a look at it, because you're right, it does seem a good idea.

Of course I will ask if I think you can help, I am not so proud, or
competent to believe I can do everything on my own. So if you register I
will upgrade you to a full admin, the same goes for anyone (I have already
meet) you wishes higher access rights.
