Hi John,
In your .nav-list a declaration, try float left or right, like this:

.nav-list a {
  display:inline-block;
  float:left;
  padding:5px;}

Hope this answers your question. Best, Kate

Thanks for that Kate, that solved my issue. I have one more question regarding the nav menu. Right now it is lined up in order with the home page then next to it is personal training page and so on. The problem is when I shrink the page down slightly the nav menu goes onto two lines which I want but rather than the last page (the contact page) dropping to the second line the home page is the first page to drop to the second page. What do I need to edit in my code so that the last element on the nav menu is the first to drop down to the second line? Thanks
