Gurteen Top Ten

 



There are over 5,000 pages on this website and at times I find it difficult to find the stuff that I really love and is important to me and so I have tagged a number of pages as being in my 'top ten' - resources that have influenced me the most and continue to do so.

There are several 'top ten' categories and I am sure I will add more over time and the lists will not remain unchanged for long.

I have yet to tag all the pages that I feel should be included. So see this as a continuing 'work in progress'. But then that is the nature of this whole site.

I am also starting to realise that maybe I should have made this my 'top 20' - there is just so much good stuff.

And a final note - the lists within the categories are in alphabetical order.
