WEBSITE ISSUES :- SEE BELOW
I am very sorry but my site was suffering server issues. My website host appeared to be doing nothing to help me resolve this. My web designer was doing all he could to help while going through his own personal problems. I cannot thank him enough for this. I apologise that this is happening again. Sadly, I must admit I am beginning to wonder if this is now time to consider the future of Bill Hudson Books. I cannot deal with the stress that this keeps causing. It is hard enough trying to keep a small business going without this constant disruption.If you would like to order anything from overseas, please contact me via email or phone.
