01/11/2003 - We've only gone and set up a bloody message board haven't we? Just click the 'forum' link on the left to go there. In no time at all it'll be full of people discussing all aspects of Walsall life. Or, more likely, and if 99 per cent of other message boards on the net are anything to go by, it'll sit ther collecting dust and the occasional profanity-strewn message from some wandering web-loon.

12/9/2003 - Another load of stuff for you to buy from the store: t-shirts and so on emblazoned with Paul 'magic' Merson's (mis)quote from his Saddlers signing press conference. Oh, and we finally got pissed off answering emails around this time of year asking for ticket prices for the illuminations and we've put an announcement up on the front page trying to stop people pestering us. Hasn't worked yet...

27/6/2003 - We've added a load of merchandise to the store based on Walsall FC's Brazilian Striker Junior's motto: 'Jesus lives in Walsall'. Everyone's going to be wearing these on the Purple Stand next year, so go and buy one now. Other than that, just a minor update to the comments page.

22/8/2002 - After last night's edition of BBC2's 'Would Like To Meet', its star, Paul Crooke has taken a deserved place at the top of the list of celebs from Walsall . Plus, WW now comes with audio, so fire up your speakers and go and hear about Paul's love of Walsall

21/8/2002 - Tonight's edition of BBC2's 'Would Like To Meet' features a guy from Walsall, and WalsallWonderland was used to research background for the show!

21/8/2002 - A few minor additions: there's a new story from the local press and a new scratchings review, plus the list of Walsall F.C. players has had a start of season update. Coming soon is a page on the art gallery (as soon as I can make it funny and legal) and possibly a guide to working men's clubs too.

26/6/2002 - Despite the rather jokey tone of the last entry below, it appears that we really did get hacked by a skater, leading to weeks of hassle with our host. Seems like what was meant as a harmless joke was taken too seriously once too often, so we're ditching the skater stuff. Am I being a bit pussy about this? Probably, yes. Do I need any more grief from either skaters or hosting companies? Definitely not. Sorry to those people who thought this was the only funny thing on the site.

20/5/2002 - We're back online after two weeks down due to our host getting hacked. Suggestions that the hacking was done by a sullen teenage skater remain little more than a paranoid delusion of mine.

16/4/2002 - Two new curry reviews have been posted, including a pretty funny one for King Balti

20/3/2001 - At last, a load of new stuff has shown up. There's two additions to the attractions section: a bit on public art and the long-awaited list of famous people from Walsall. On top of that, a load of new gibberings from disgruntled skaters have been added, and the list of WFC players has also had an update. Check out the newest link too, and take a trip to Websofa, new from (one of) the makers of WW. Finally, and only 6 months late, there's a review of Walsall Illuminations 2001

06/12/2001 - A few bits of new material have shown up. There's a new section on stories in the local press, plus a mini-rant about kids with mobile phones

06/10/2001 - Er, you should have noticed by now that the whole site has had a redesign. Still not much new material, but some might turn up next month...

20/7/2001 - We're featured in this month's edition of 'Internet' magazine. In between (justifiably) slating most of the design of the site, they said things like 'this is a great site', 'we like the virtual pub' and 'there's some great material on this site'. We got five stars out of five for content and a rather generous three out of five for design. Nice one.

17/7/2001 - We are proudly launching the latest edition to our eating guide, a curry guide. This features a fantastic quiz on the etiquette of balti-houses that is very funny (trust me - I didn't write it for once) and well worth a go. You can also help us out by submitting your own curry reviews to us.

23/6/2001 - We've started reviewing different types of scratchings in our rather misleadingly titled 'world of pork'. We couldn't have done it without Tony Goodall. Well, I suppose we could have, it's just we couldn't really be bothered.

19/6/2001 - We've cobbled together some rubbish about the play-offs.

29/5/2001 - We recently got another (equally illiterate) message sent to us by a skatekid, having taken our 'Why it's OK to hate skateboarders' page far too seriously. So, in the interest of fairness we have now started a new 'Why skateboarders think it's not OK to hate them'. Go there now for indisputable proof that repeatedly falling off a bit of wood not only makes you look like a stupid tit, but also impairs your ability to construct coherent sentences....

15/5/2001 - We finally got round to taking a cheap shot at the New Bus Station

5/5/2001 - We were in Friday night's Walsall Express and Star. Their reporter managed to do a better job than the Advertiser, by avoiding misquoting the site and even quoting from the disclaimer. You can see both articles here

28/4/2001 - We got our first e-mail from a disgruntled teenage skater. Great, that's one of the original aims of the site accomplished. It's reproduced almost in full (it rambles on a bit, the kid's English teacher might want to make a note..) on the comments page.

27/4/2001 - We were featured in the Walsall Advertiser today. More on this at a later date..

8/4/2001 - More rubbish flash animation - see a simulation of the illuminations lasers.

6/4/2001 - Walsall Wonderland now offers you the chance to destroy the controversial 'Black Diana' statue. Well, OK, you can't actually destroy the statue, but you can watch a rubbish flash animation I've done that looks a little bit like the statue falling over. Just click above or on the Black Diana link.

26/3/2001 - Walsall Wonderland T-shirts and mugs now available - click on the 'buy stuff' link. Note the warning about shipping costs, though.

18/3/2001 - We've been added to the Walsall Webring. Yeah, I know, you just can't believe that such a thing even exists can you, but it does and we're in there along with the likes of 'Ugly Walsall' and 'bloxwich.com'. So now you can use the navigation bar at the bottom of the main page to go and see if we really are the least awful site out of this sorry bunch.

8/3/2001 - New 'local custom' added, including the site's first mention of Warsaw

27/2/2001 - Links have been updated - go check out some of my favourite bands (and yeah, I know this is a really lame thing to do...)

26/2/2001 - The 'write to us' link should work now, on account of I've changed it from the wrong email address to the right one. So now you can do like it says and 'write to us'

24/2/2001 - All jokes swapped for ones that are funny. OK, I'm kidding, they're still unfunny

19/2/2001 - Slightly less dark images of Black Diana added - so quit moaning about not being able to see what the hell they're meant to show. It doesn't help the bloody thing being black, you know.....
