Most Recent Upload: 14th July 2010

I have been busy with other things just recently but have now managed another upload. I have had the great good fortune to make the acquaintance of Babette Blaedel-Flajsner who has started to do some really high quality work on my Danish and Swedish lists. I *love* it when good people add to my work and brush it into really good shape. Also Susi Arendt has kindly looked at German plural terms for me and I am slowly adding these. Many thanks to Babette and Susi.

I am just starting work on developing some apps so people can carry the largest food dictionaries in about 60 different languages with them wherever they go. I'll keep people posted as to how this goes.

I have also just met David Lyne-Gordon on-line. He has written a great work on edible plants and, to my great excitement, is keen to help out with some of my entries concerning the more uncommon plants. It is lovely for me to get help in this way.

Welcome to the new people who have joined the Facebook group. (Facebook group) If you would like to join, you will get occasional updates about what has been added to to the site.

I am still working on improvements to the site. This is a long job and entry of new food terms will happen much more quickly once this structural work is done.

Please do let us know if you see any errors, broken links or pictures. Some of the changes I am making may lead to this happening and it would help if you could let us know.
