This web site is, without a doubt, rather large!! Finding your way around can be somewhat daunting. To the left are a series of headings, where clicking on each one will reveal a list of sub-headings, and clicking on these will take you to the relative section. Please note some of these links are to external sites having a high relevance to the section you are looking for (marked (ext)), these external links will open new windows.

Ruislip Online is totally free to use, you can post your views about the area on the message board, you can place free adverts in the classified ads section.

If you really want to get the most from the site you can download the Ruislip Online Toolbar. This sits on your browser and takes you to directly to many pages on Ruislip Online as well as many external local sites such as the page on the council site to get more recycling bags  or report anti-social behaviour, plus many many other useful links (and, If you do not like it, you can always remove it from add/remove programs).

Ruislip Online would not exist in its present form without the income it gets from its advertisers. Please visit their web sites, and if you use them, tell them you heard about them from Ruislip Online. Many choose to renew year on year, the site is sponsored by Octagon Ltd.

This page has its own sponsor, Eye Design in Ruislip High Street.

Ruislip Online also gains income from the Google ads placed on the site. Many of these have a high local relevance and I suggest you visit these as well. There are some just to the right - take a look now.

If you are interested in promoting your business on the site please visit the advertising section.

The aim of Ruislip Online is to bring you, the user, all the information you could ever want to see on Ruislip. However, it is neither a heavy historical "tome" nor a snappy up to date newsy web site, instead it sits somewhere between the two. There are no news feeds on here, but stories often break on the message board before they appear anywhere else! If it is news you are looking for there are links to local papers to be found on the Toolbar and from the links on the left.

Some of the pages from the links may be duplicated. By example suppose you were reading up on Ruislip Lido, within the site is a page with pictures taken around the Lido, equally suppose you were just looking for general pictures around Ruislip, within the links will be one to the same page of pictures (of the Lido).

I am always happy to receive comments, suggestions of question. If you have any just e-mail me.

Meanwhile, welcome to Ruislip Online, I hope you enjoy using the site as much as I do writing it!
