Optimised various aspects of the page in accordance with the Google guidelines. Not everything could be done so we'll just have to accept slightly laggy performance.

Ready for review and close.

I have built the site and checked there are no regressions. I don't have any 'before and after' loading stats but it seems at least as good. Closing

After replicating your problems in Safari with no obvious reason why it's occurring, I've reinstated the original JS and CSS loading code in head.ftl.

Ready for review and close.

Checked download operation on Mac Safari, Chrome, Firefox. All works as expected. Closing.
