Thanks, I'll make that change.
I'm also seeing the same problem in IE7: 
http://www.holidaymullandiona.co.uk/accn/bb-central-mull.php

But NOT http://www.holidaymullandiona.co.uk/accn/bb-tobermory.php

Which is curious because both pages call the same CSS (so that would also rule 
out a caching problem, I think).  However, the Tobermory page has more space at 
the bottom of each item, so there clearly is a difference somewhere !
