As posted elsewhere:

There are funds that need to be raised for the plaque (£100) and forum hosting charges (approx £150 per year) Alfie and I will act as joint auditors on this. I'll use an old unused account of mine for the time being and email statements to Alfie for financial summaries to be checked and posted. I would suggest £10 from members who wish to donate to get the fund started.

If anyone wants to make a donation then please PM me and I'll let you have sort code and account number.

BRILLIANT: Plaque £100, hosting £94.95 (paid  22/08) and domain name £22 are now funded thanks.

Thanks to all who have donated and to those who had also made offers so I know we are safe.

That will take us through to next March and give me time to find out what the new owner plans for the forum and Malcolm's news site the forum hangs from.
