Hello, I have just set up a new website, withacademy details etc. There is a holding page there now but it will be going live next week, let me know your thoughts, regards Paul
Address is : www.paulhollywoodbreads.co.uk

Sorry Paul, I copy and pasted that address and nothing is showing up at the moment, just took me to "mywebsearch" and said no results found.

Will try again later.

I have the homepage up with a nice pic of Paul - will look out for the site launch!

Well I still ain't working for me, maybe it is the same sort of thing as we had with Lotte's site that time Georgie.

it worked first time, really looking forward to it Paul.Lou xx

Well I've got a black background ,a sort of wheatsheaf diagram, with some nice bread pictures just to get the taste buds flowing, but no pictures of the lovely Paul. Just two square boxes in the top left-hand corner with little red kisses in the corner...are they meant for me?....
Are we going to have recipes on there? and a Liverpool launch would be favourite with Champagne and samples :D

I got the same result as Rustie - nothing! Hopefully will have more luck next time.

I think you are probably right Rustie, especially as Jennifer is getting kisses and we are not!

Clearly the Scouse connection :D

I quite agree Georgie, glad I'm not the only one hurt and offended!! :D

It took about 48 hours before that stuff on Lotte's went through properly didn't it?

So I won't panic too quickly.

Can get it now!! :P

With or without kisses Rustie?

Without...........

sigh

sulk

grumble

mumble

But at yeast it is working for me now, dough!!

Well, knead I have asked? Just proves the point...

ok, so you think I am half-baked, but at yeast I rose to the occasion, and used my loaf......

Crusty Rustie

I'm sure that when the site is biga, a great percentage of visitors will find the right formula for success.
Good luck. Paul and thanks for the shaping tips.

Andy.

I have to wonder why someone releases info on a web site thats not ready. I work in this area and its one of the first rules (2nd to security) that you learn. Make the site available otherwise people lose interest and go elsewhere !! When its ready then advertise it.

Oh beanz, you must know by now that no matter what Paul Hollywood does, he will still have lots of interest here......... on this site I mean.


LOL

Rustie, forgive me for, altho' I could have been in more trouble if I'd said something about James Martin or....well just about most of the male chefs. I think you girls (women/ladies/fairer sex) need your own sub-section entitled Hunky Chefs.

Well, yes, I suppose you could, there is a lot of support for a lot of the chefs here, but from my personal point of view, Nick Nairn and Brian Turner do it for me......... only interested in the cooking not the hunk. So if there was a Hunky Chef section, you wouldn't find me posting on it.

You haven't quite got the hang of my sense of humour yet beanz, but I'm sure you will. well I hope you will.

:D

Hi Beanz69,
I agree, us girlies could do with a hunky chef section, if only for the younger one's on this site....
have too say though, i wish Paul all the luck in the world, when Paul had his shop in Canterbury, i would buy bread weather i needed it or not!, just to have a chat with him, he is so lovely, what you see is what you get... Good luck Paul xxx
PS Paul for the lead in the hunky chef's section..

Thankyou Louise, I wonder if Beanz would look after the site for James, Simon, Ed, Ross, Nick, Mick, Alan and myself cheers Beanz!

Hi all, Paul it looks good.
When I asked for feedback from these lovely people on the boards for my website. I got very useful information and advice. But more importantly I got support and that was worth more than anything.
So I think its great you let us see the site before launch.

Best of luck with it mate and I shall be sticking you in my favourites ooooh eeerrrr.
You have convinced me to bake my own bread and hope to get artisan bakers to make and send bread to my customers.
So thanks

Take care
Helenxx

I'm too expensive Paul, you'd have to part with plenty of dough for me to host/manage your site. (sorry cudn't resist the obvious pun - bet you've not heard that one before, well, not for the past 5 mins.)
Anyway, hurray up and get the site sorted otherwise I will have to resort to my breadmaker.

Just looked at the site.....it's great
one thing though...where is your academy at...or will details be provided on the site at a later date?

Would love to do one of the courses but would like to know where before putting details in and then finding out it's no-where near where I live (I don't drive...well a car anyway..hubby might include walls and up somewhere with all that).
