Hairy Bunnets in the Old Canal is created merely to help me learn how to set up a web page. Do not expect its contents to make any contribution to the sum of human knowledge. The title was chosen because I like it, there is no deeper meaning.
The page is written for the Opera 7.xx web browsers and checked on Internet Explorer 5.5 , I don't have room for a copy of Netscape . I use a resolution of 1280x1024 and check the results at 800x600.
