Just realised. I’ve never contributed a penny to the forum. I’ve had a look in the shoebox and there’s a little something in there. I’ll shove it your way

Awesome, cheers

I don’t push people to join or pay, it’s not that kind of place.
But it’s appreciated when people do of course

Right then, it's time almost to get the yearly subscription and SSL paid. The SSL expires in 2 weeks time, so i'll get it renewed today etc.

I think we have about the same time for the hosting packages. The prices have gone up of course, but we pay what we pay :D

Don't forget to ask if the funds need to be boosted. Between us and your boy serially raping the bank account,we can't have House Weeks in penury.

First invoice is the SSL Certs.

That's been paid in full. We've got a few weeks before sticking in the hosting invoice.

Fair do's but don't leave yourself out of pocket - the money's better spent on keeping us all entertained with thrilling tales of Weeksy Minor and his gravity assisted triumphs. :D :thumbup:

So currently we have £43 in this year's coffers. If you recall we paid a few quid out to help someone out and have paid techs a couple of times.

We've lost a lot of members in the last few years, which also means a lot less funding. The hosting fees have increased too etc

Now, this isn't me asking for anything at this stage but by Feb, we may need to think about it. So don't do anything gasty yet. But keep it in mind
