Hi
I'd ensure that you're using % or ems for your font-sizing as, currently users of IE can't resize your main section of text at all and it's quite small.
I'd also swap the Serif font for a Sans Serif like Verdana or Arial - they're easier to read for body text. You could keep a sans serif font for your headers but then again your navigation is sans serif so it's probably better to keep them the same througout.
The images in your navigation don't have alt attributes which means that without images (or with a text browser) there's nothing to say where the links go - I'd add in something like alt="Homepage" into the the image tag for instance.
Not all the pages seem to have the same navigation which is a bit confusing (it may be stuff left in the original template rather than something you've actually planned). It's my personal opinion that all the pages should have the same main navigation on ALL pages. You can always add in the extra navigation on the appropriate pages (maybe use slightly different colour images to differentiate).
Finally I'd add a title text to your email links where they go straight to the email client (just something like "title="this link will open in your email client""

If you want to use a serif font, go with Georgia (you don't have to use a sans serif font). Still, anything else than Times, it's not a screen text font at all.
The most important part of the website is the title in Times New Roman. It doesn't look professional at all, because you have squished it and have used letter resizing to produce a fake small caps effect — but I think that's mostly a personal preference.
Other than that, the website's looking good. I like the round corners and the colors.

Thank you kindly folks
Confirmed some of my thoughts. One think that I've notice is that every screen that I look at the website on it does not look the same. Curious?
"Not all the pages seem to have the same navigation which is a bit confusing (it may be stuff left in the original template rather than something you've actually planned). "
The navigation buttons were actually planned. Most of people that I talk to don't like to see what on the whole website. They just want to see what they are interested in, and then move on. Again curious.
I do thank you for your time and suggestion, would seem I have more work to do.
thank you much
