Graham, I will PM you some details. A cheque would be fine, I could pay it into the post office then transfer it to the site PP account. Alternatively I will send you my backup account details that you could try, saves on the postage. :extrawink:
Thanks Ian. I think we've cracked it without relying on China Post! I think the postage from China to UK was about 70 pence last time I sent a letter. That' was probably cheaper than the UK national rate. Every penny counts!

Thanks for the generous donation. Best transfer it before I spend it on some accessory for the bathroom. :extrawink:

Thanks to everyone who has donated we now have a balance of £236.13

We have just paid the September I/P bill.

I reckon that with the monthly outgoings being £12.00 and the quarterly around £45.00 for easy reckoning and barring any major meltdown.

We should be solvent until just before the June quarter of next year is due.

I will do another reckoning at the end of March next year which seems about right.

Too right! Thanks for raising the matter and looking after us Ian.
I know you'll not take a lot of notice but any expenses you incur like telephone bills should be charged to the fund.

The only site where you see good common sense written. Even if I say so myself. :biggrin2:

I never ring anyone up, I have free calls on my package anyway but prefer the online chat facilities , always seems to get the right result. Certainly with IONOS and site matters. :smile:

Not quite working with Talk Talk at the moment though for Bosom Friends. :notthatway:

That's not too high a hurdle to jump though is it? :smile:

I look at the index occasionally to see who's on, and noticed our friend Gus. I sent him a brief message, and got a very nice reply. He said he had popped in to get some information and a photograph.

Let that sink in for a moment . . . . bearing in mind - he has his own FlickR site which has over 55,000 photos. :laugh5:
