Don't like the plus signs on the menu's

Don't like the pale blue background, off beige would look better ;-) (ok
#FFE5B0 if you insist)

Don't somehow think that London exported "led".

I can't see any difference between the 2 links you've provided, am I
missing something?

I also agree with Beauregard T. Shagnasty about the justified text, it may
look nice but it sure don't read nice.

There is still some editing needed for instance the following <quote> I
feel I have put together the nearly all the historical and technical
information </quote> is grammatically incorrect.

Can't leave without a bit of praise though, overall the site is good and
I've bookmarked it to read more fully later.
