    The address is one of the weirdest things to markup, there's so many ways to do it but no one really knows which is correct. There's the <address> element however this is can only be used in the context of 'the web author's address'.

    You could use <br> tags which are considered 'ok' I believe for this scenario, you could also use a <p> tag for each line, you could use a list, but a definition list.

    The newer way people seem to be doing it is, using the definition list and using microformats, there's more here: Microdata - Dive Into HTML5

    It's a bit crazy that's there isn't just one simple and easy way to do it

    See, that's where I find the <br/> tags useful to put in.

    For me, you don't want the two lines to have the double space that the <p> tag would put in, but at the same time, setting up a <p> class to narrow it seems quite fussy when you could just break the line where necessary.

    I suppose you could have a <p class="break"> or something to universally apply it actually... oh well

    Like I say I believe they are considered ok for an address, personally I'd use a definition list. But it's down to interpretation.

    Revamped Website looks good!

    Hi - I like the design of your website. Its very to the point and i also like the colour scheme you have chosen. The bright is bright and airy and fits well on screen.

    If there is one thing that I am not liking to much about the website design its self its that the footer lacks any substance but this in my opinion as a website designer is the only thing.

    Good work!

    Sorry for hijacking, but I have a feeling that your header/footer will stretch to fit every browser? Like, it'll never come up short?
    How do you do that?

    You just set a div with a width of 100%
