 * I’ve installed the blog and got it running, but I’ve been asked to make it look
   and feel similar to teh one in the link above.
 * I don’t quite know what I’d be editing as I don’t know what each part is classed
   as to know what to put where even if I knew how to do it anyway. I know this 
   sounds a bit ‘I can’t be bothered to try’ but I don’t know what I’m tryoing to
   do in the first place. I’ve installed teh blog and had a quick look at editing
   it, I can see how to change some bacis colours but when it comes to inserting
   various part sinto different places on the page, I’m stuffed!

 * Find a theme that is very similar with the 2 sidebars
    The right sidebar can 
   easily be configured the way it is on the typepad site from the widgets menu 
   in admin.
 * The left sidebar is a bit more work in that whatever theme you choose you will
   need to modify that theme’s “leftsidebar.php” (or whatever it is called in your
   theme).
 * The stuff in the middle is simply going into admin and making a post or page.
 * If you need to import the posts and stuff from that site:
