Don't give up yet.  If you want a job in web development you'll want to have a portfolio of work to demonstrate to potential employers or to show potential customers if you go self employed.

Oooh maps!  I like maps.  I've a plan for some online mappery sometime this year myself, but nothing similar to this.  Anyway...

I'm guessing the "SELECT * FROM.... etc" is the actual query you're running?  If so, I think you ought to switch to parameterised queries, to make sure someone searching for that famous Corbett 'Ben Drop Table' doesn't cause any problems .

Layout looks better in IE9 than in Chrome (layout probs like CP describes) - search works in Chrome, but in IE9 it isn't working for me.  In fact when I load the page, it shows the search splash window and none of the buttons do owt.

Would it be possible to synchronise the zoom and scroll on the two side by side maps?

MSR Dragonfly - don't use any more, should flog

MSR Pocket Rocket

Gelert Pocket Rocket clone (Intensity?) - came free with a gas lantern

Fire Maple FMS-116 Mini Stove - for when I want to cook, not just boil water

Trangia burner

Couple of coke can burners

One of those rectangular folding hex burner things

~

2 x MSR Stow Away pots (one large, one small)

Snow Peak Titanium pot with frying pan lid - was part of a two pot set, but I split with mate

Gelert Ascent I - my go to pots

Non stick mess tins

Random other two pot set

 

Writing this all down has made me realise what a hoarder I really am.  I need to get off my a*se and get rid of some of this stuff!

Keep meaning to flog the Zephyros (didn't like smaller porch), Lightwave (too cramped) and ProAction, but I'm a hoarder.

Original bright yellow Karrimat.

Army foam mat.

3/4 length Thermarest Prolite 3 (usually used with a foam sit mat to fill the gap)

A 2m length of radiator insulation stuff (http://www.insulationandlagging.co.uk/Pipe-Insulation-Lagging/Insulation-Accesories/Climareflex-Radiator-Foil-Insulation)

Winter I take the Karrimat + Thermarest, rest of the time it's the Thermarest and the foil thing.
