Summer-wine.co.uk - One Of The Best Fansites Not There

Beside Summer-wine.com, Summer-wine.co.uk (or just summerwine.co.uk) was one of the first LOTSW sites (probably was THE first site) I visited around the time I started watching the show. It was a rather nice site with a wealth of photos and information. It was also one of those sites where you had to pay for a membership to see more lovely goodies (I dunno. I don't really like sites like that. Not everyone's able to pay the fee (shrugs)). Then one day, it disappeared much to everyone's annoyance. Luckily, due to the magic of the Wayback Machine, we're able to (kinda sorta) relive it! So, here's what the page was like in April 2004:

Just look at all of the things that were offered to us (well, members mostly)! And now, none of it's accessible anymore (well, unless the webmasters of this site still has this information stored away)! I'm especially curious of that article about Clegg's double. Here's the page from August 2005 before it disappeared a little while later:

So yeah. Does anyone remember this site and were any of you members as well?

All I have to say is I started watching the show just in time. :)
