Wednesday May 4, 2022. THE TINKERING CONTINUES. I have increased the default font-size from 14 to 16 pixels. Now a zoom factor of 100% is fine with a screen of 15.6 inches diagonal. I have modfied four webpages today; more tomorrow.
Tuesday May 3, 2022. TINKERING. I have increased the default font-size from 12 to 14 pixels and decreased the width of two large photographs on chapters 4 and 24 to keep all images inside the webpage margins up to a zoom factor of 150% for a laptop screen of 15.6 inches.
Saturday April 30, 2022. MAJOR NEWS. I plan to write FIVE new chapters thanks to my chance discovery of the shipyard's in-house magazine, Bazan. "Bazan" had a short life (1957-1967) but it may provide interesting news for the years 1956-58, 1960, 1962.

Tuesday April 26, 2022. NINTH NEWSREEL CLIP. See the news entry for July 29, 1965. The Spanish voice-over is translated to English.
Tuesday April 26, 2022. TRIVIAL IMPROVEMENT CONTINUES. I have reverted to Youtube hyperlinks for Port Cartier (Chapter 4) Sir Francis Drake TV UK opener (Chapter 14) and Antonio Machín (Chapter 16). I have perceived that the upload problem might actually be my ISP's; but this modification is good anyway.
Monday April 25, 2022. TRIVIAL IMPROVEMENT. I have reverted to Youtube hyperlinks in the first 14 chapters because the upload of some mp4 files from my own subdirectory can at times be too slow. You may need to be patient in Chapter 15, "The Movies."
Sunday April 24, 2022. TWO NEW VIDEO CLIPS show how the pitch of old Manuel Rivera Stadium looked during the dry and wet seasons (Chapter 1, subheading: "Team Arsenal, 1958-59 season").
