Raised bang on £65, so a tad over the yearly hosting fees.  This will be put aside for the domain costs which are around £15 every two years, and due this year in a few months.

Thanks very much to all for contributing.  It is very much appreciated!

That extra chip he could have had will make a lot of difference to the waste size agreed.  Grin

Rather than start a new thread, thought I would tag onto this year old one!

The forums hosting costs went through last month, being debited to my credit card automatically.

I was going to try to move the forum to some shared hosting this year (cost saving), but did not manage to get this done, so we will stay where we are for a further a year.

There was a small amount of money left in the kitty from last year which paid the costs of the domain name renewal, and we have had some small donations since.

The kitty currently stands at £35.

Below is the invoice for the years hosting.

Unfortunately, as we run completely advert free, we have no income other than donations.

Please don't feel obliged to donate, it is not expected at all!

Donations can be made by Paypal (using a credit or debit card if you don't have a Paypal account).  The link is in the top right corner of all pages.

Done.

The link doesn't work, but the donate button at the top right does.

Thanks Scruff, appreciated.  I have removed the link in the post, it was time-locked, so would only work for a couple hours.  Difficult to put a link into the post.

on the contrary lec my contribution is small compared to yours it costs you far more time wise and probably electric wise than the simple contributions i make

if you consume 100w every hour off every day thats 2.4kw every day at 15p a unit is 36p a day £2.52p a week or £131 a year Shocked Shocked
