What's On

A recent comment asked why I don't put dates on the What's On page; in the past dates were listed, in fact the events were listed in date order, but I found it almost impossible to keep it up-to-date as event organisers either didn't respond to requests or I forgot to ask them! I therefore decided to just to list the events with a link to the event website which, in theory, should have the latest information.
What do you think, is it better to have dates that may be old or just links? You can use the rate-it form at the foot of the page or email feedback@writerswebresource.co.uk.
