Wintercorn have passed on our love of Joomla! at the CHASE meeting in Cambridge last night.

CHASE is the Cambridge Hi-Tech Association of Small Enterprises and holds regular meetings for SME's. We had a great time chatting with all the guests. Check out our pics below.

The meeting was based at the ARM offices in Fulbourne Road, Cambridge.

Wintercorn will be evangelising Joomla! at the CHASE meeting in Cambridge next week.

CHASE is the Cambridge Hi-Tech Association of Small Enterprises and we'd love it if you could pop along and listen to different Content Management Systems being explained and demonstrated.

It's open from 7.30pm until 10.30pm at the ARM offices in Fulbourne Road, Cambridge.

The details are on their website here.

Does this actually count as news? Anyway, after what seems like months, we now have our V.A.T. registration number. This means when you commission a project with us, we form an unholy trinity with the VATman and we have to add 15% to our invoices.

You can claim this back of course by getting registered yourself if you are not already, but this just seems to encourage them.

The bottle of whisky is for no other purpose than to illustrate this news item. We don't send any alchohol with our invoices, although it's worth asking.

Anyway, the magic number is 947 4057 03 and it's also here.

The brilliant Chapel Break Tardis website is online. Working with a group of children from Chapel Break School in Bowthorpe we put together this Joomla! 1.5 site.

It's pretty nifty showing a gallery of the childrens work, a comments space and the extra special Ideas Machine popping out random questions and food for thought.

The Wintercorn office will be closed on Friday the 13th of March. Not for superstitious reasons, but we are going to the JoomlaDay event in Kent.

Telephones will be diverted to voicemail, but we'll be checking email and voicemails regularly. If you have any urgent requests, please use hello at wintercorn.com and we'll reply just as soon as we can.

We've made a momentus decision. As from March 2009, all new website projects will get their web hosting included in the project price. There's no extra charge and no fees.

It's down to administration and customer service actually.

We meet clients who have been quoted a reasonable price for their project and then get hit with ongoing hosting charges. We think that's unfair.

We also have to deal with the admin work of regularly renewing hosting accounts for relatively small amounts of money when we could be designing lovely websites. We think that's unfair as well.
