I just paid for another year's hosting. If you fancy making a donation to support the web hosting, then you can find a link to donations under the About menu above.

Thank you very much Thomas for all your hard work behind the scenes. :D =D>

Sorry to hear that you are having to cope with the discomfort of a bunion - are there any immediate plans for you to have surgery?

When it's convenient for you, I would appreciate being added to the Friends of Free Spirits 2016.

Many thanks,
Jill :)

Hi Jill, and thank you for the nudge. I worked out that I am not getting email notifications from PayPal for donations at the moment - I have no idea why. Of course you shall be added to the group. :oops:

Re bunion: I think surgery is going to have to happen. Really struggling yesterday. Doped up to the gills on ibuprofen for 3 months now. :?

Hi Thomas - sorry, foot issues are no fun. I typically send my donation at this time of year and remember now it's because this is when you renew the site... :idea: (<< hoping that is a lightbulb for my aha moment)

So despite not getting the notifications, you're able to receive the donations, yes? Just want to be sure I'm not sending $ into nowhere land...

Yes, I am receiving them. Thank you.

Ibuprofen is my friend, and I may be able to exercise again in a couple of days.

Thank you Thomas :D - I'd sent the donation a week ago and although 99% of me reasoned that it was probably a glitch that would right itself, the other 1%, Mistress Worrypuss, :roll: finally wore me down with her, " better check. "

At times, a much needed friend to many, although I hope you won't have to rely on it for any longer than is necessary.

Hi Thomas

I also sent a few bob a while back, but I'm still showing as a friend of Free Spirits 2015. I presume it went through OK?

Just sent some monies via Paypal Thomas. Hopefully we have had a generous round of donations to keep all this forum work running - it takes time and effort I'm sure.

Thank you Plummy, I got no email but have worked out the reason! (my mistake in some crazy internet setup). Also thank you to Roger B.

I have changed your subtitle to "Friend of the web site 2016", but if you want the standard one back PM me.

Hah, I had but had not spotted it. Thanks for pointing it out. The PayPal emails are now coming through though. Thank you Paul.
