I have to admit, I am at the end of my expertise here....which is pretty limited hence chosing a themed appearance already available for use..... :( Hi Geoff,

However your blog is hosted on WordPress itself, I'm not sure how easy it is in that case - it depends whether they allow you to access and change the CSS files.

It appears that changing a preset theme is nigh on impossible. I will have a look to see if there is an alternative but similar layout I can use..... Hi Geoff,

just seen your comment after typing a reply to Alan. It appears that changing a preset theme is nigh on impossible. I will have a look to see if there is an alternative but similar layout I can use…..

I happen to think you are right about it. It does look a tad small. Lets see if I can manage this simple task! :) Hi Alan,

Even with my reading glasses and squinting, I'm finding it hard to type this. I have my browser default font size so that virtually every website is easy to read, but not this one!. Remember that Internet Explorer displays fonts significantly bigger than proper standards-compliant browsers. Just one thing: the font is far too small.

It would help me enormously! Many thanks - Like the content a lot, so make it easy for an old git like me to read please! Also- the black background on your commetn box makes it difficult to see where your cursor is too! Sounds like a complete whinge! Sorry about that! Hi there

I have been too idle on my blog for one reason or another. I am determined to do more this summer and actually do some reviews, walk write ups and the like. Looking around all the other outdoors bloggers I feel very inadequate! :) Hi Martin, thanks for the kind words. I have been too idle on my blog for one reason or another.
