A new website for Robert Murray M'Cheyne resources has been designed by a friend in Surrey.
We hope that you will like the fresh design of the new site. The process of adapting items from the old UK Online website is ongoing, but much is there already.
Please update your bookmarks and links, especially if you had linked online to the old website.
UK Online have delayed their closure by a week. It will close on 21 January, 2011. From then on, my email address ending in @ukonline.co.uk will no longer reach me.
There is a contact form on the new site.

McCheyne, McGonagall and the West End of Dundee
This talk was given last night during Dundee's WestFest.
David Robertson takes a look at the influence of Christianity in general and St Peter's in particular on the West End of Dundee, examining the impact of two famous west enders, the preacher, pastor and poet Robert Murray McCheyne, a former minister of St Peter's Church and William Topaz McGonagall. McGonagall is one of Dundee’s most famous citizens – the ‘world’s worst poet’ was actually a member of St Peter’s and his tragic/comic life gives surprising insight into 19th Century Dundee life.
