I will eventually try to do it myself but I thought that if someone was able to quickly achieve what I'm asking, it would save me (literally) hours of frustration and garner heaps of my appreciation!

Cheers!
Recipes that require parsing a web page for feed info typically take more time than recipes based on an RSS feed. With the RSS feed, you just have to clean up the output. With a web page, you first have to write the code to parse the page, and that just gets you to the same point you would start at with an RSS feed. You looked like someone who might have the skill and desire to DIY, so I thought I'd steer you towards where you could find the info you'd need if you wanted to try.
