Even if it seems like overkill, now that you have overcome the worst of the learning curve I think you'll find Joomla a nice tool in your kit. And bah on purists - what matters is a site that works for the organization and withstands the browsers we are stuck with. Especially in content areas, tables are often needed since admins at organizations don't usually have HTML/CSS skills or the time to learn them. Congrats Colin - nicely done.

You definitely do not need to underplay your skills. I doubt I produced anything close to this the first time I designed a site. Another resource which is to help you learn about further aspects of Joomla! is http://www.learnjoomla.org.za. Its free which always helps and it walks you through some of the stuff step by step. You really do exceptional work , keep it up! Well done, I like your site. You definitely do not need to underplay your skills.
