Hi N,

I'm just testing out the new forum stuff.  Try it and let me know how it goes.

I did a bit of stuff on the website.  I embedded the twitter feed and also a front page feed from Shell to Sea.

I also changed the banner a bit.  Let me know what you think of that.

Tamboran U-turn on crucial submission

The company planning to extract gas from West Cavan has broken its commitment to push regulators to demand chemical-free fracking, The Anglo-Celt can reveal. At a public information meeting held in the Slieve Russell Hotel in Ballyconnell on September 14, Mr Moorman gave assurances that the company would submit a recommendation to the State’s regulator over gas extraction, the Commission for Energy Regulation’s (CER), that chemicals should be banned from fracturing fluid.
