Access via the Internet

The following URL's can be used to access my e-mail and Internet pages on the World Wide Web. Note that some web servers are case-sensitive; so that the use of capitals / lower case is critical. Since Windows PCs are not case sensitive for file names, working links sometimes fail when loaded to the server. If this happens let me know and I will correct the problem.

At the Tesco site -

At the FreeBeeb / BBC site

NOTE - this site uses "case sensitive" file names so if links don't working please check the use of upper and lower case in the URLs

At British Telecom / Talk21 / BT Internet sites -

  • e-mail - townsleyb at talk21.com
  • e-mail - townsleyb at btinternet.com

At Web Services Companies -

At other sites -


Access via the CD-ROM

The following URL's give the same links as above but without the "http://homepages.tesco.net/~townsleyb/" prefix so that you use them to navigate around the family CD without going online. All the other pages in the site use this form of "relative" addressing for URL's - so that they will work when navigating around either format (CD pages and web pages). There are a number of site not yet included in the CD links - so only appear in the web URL's.
