It is estimated there are over 2500 of them clustered in an area of about 3 square miles. I have designed and built my own websites and it clearly takes a lot of concentration when you take your first steps into getting around html. For a novice looking at the page source for a web page such as this one it is gobbledygook but as progression is made the tags start to make sense and things become much easier pretty much like learning to drive, terrified as first in making an error but confidence grows as understanding takes hold. Now databases and SQL a whole new kettle of fish.... Am I ready to take the plunge? You are never to old to learn.....
