Message below re groveartandmusic forwarded at the request of Macmillan.
Thanks to those who have responded with link checking suggestions.
With over 10500 links, just finding pages that have changed
is of limited use, as we expect lots of changes. However, I'll
follow up the other suggestions when I get a chance, and see how
clever Linkbot (or other link checkers) really are.
