Welcome to Gav's World - v2.0
It's been several years in contemplation, but after a decade of a very amateur looking web site (frames didn't even exist on the WWW when I designed it), I finally got around to giving GavsWorld a bit of a face lift. I think it's looking much better now!
So, I give you ... Gav's World v2.0 :-)
The main reason for the change was for hosting some pages about my fast approaching wedding to Helen, but I've taken the opportunity to improve the look of the site's content too. It's now even easier for me to maintain it, through the extensive use of PHP and CSS. I've also taken a lot of time and effort to make the generated XHTML nicely indented. More importantly, the whole site adheres to the W3C coding standards for web pages (see the icons at the bottom of the page list that you can click to re-validate each and every page).
Since I'm a bit of a gadget geek, I've decided to share any experiences / tips / tricks with gadgets - starting with my Asus Eee PC 4G (701) (which has now been sold to help fund my Asus Eee PC 901) with more items to follow, I'm sure!
Along with that, there's always my real ale ratings for you to be having a look through. You may agree with some of them, you may not - I don't mind ... it's just a bit of fun at the end of the day :-) Of course, if you like drinking, then you may like to play some drinking games. Also, what goes better with drink than a curry (link to my work's curry club external mirror).
I've had requests from various people about the software that drives the website, so I've decided to make the software available for download, free of charge (for non-commercial use). It may take a wee while to figure out how it all hangs together, so I have fully documented the whole thing in the website template, so please read through before asking questions.
Since I have your attention (I know that since you're still reading this), how about checking out my charity pages where you can still sponsor my dodgy moustache(s)!
Anyway, have a browse and feel free to contact me if you have any queries or comments about the website.

2009-06-26 : I Got Married!!!
It's been a long time coming and I'm sure my Mum even thought that I "swung the other way" for a while, but luckily I can now put her mind at ease.
On the 26th of June 2009 I married Helen Maria Phillips on board the cruise boat "Souters Lass" on Loch Linnhe by Fort William.
I host my pages on my broadband Internet service provider and highly
recommend them to anyone looking to switch ISP, or pick their first ISP.
(and not just because I get 25p off my monthly subscription for every
person that I recommend)
