Just curious who pays for the site? the hosting etc?
Also and to the reason for the post... I think it would be a good idea to have a 'donate' panel some where towards the bottom of the site?
Which lets you donate via paypal or something?
Anyone agree?
I know I'd donate the odd ?5/?10 !

Danny pays for the hosting of this site. I'm sure any donations would be gratefully received!! :D
I think there was a donate panel on here at one point?

When the site was created there was a PayPal donation button but it was removed as it looked a bit pikey :D
The site costs something silly like ?7 per month to run and that includes all my email addresses and other personal websites so it works out pretty cheap . .
Myself and Sass had discussed the possibility of site sponsorship in the past but it never really got past discussion stage . .
It's refreshing to see someone wanting to fork out for no reason . . You should see the fun Sass had trying to get everyone's ?15's for the Croydon Open :lol:

Big Jake seems to like forking out money for no reason.

longshanks - I wouldn't call the site no reason mate, but each to his own, freeloader :lol:
I'll leave a tenner behind the bar at Suzi's tomorow Danny, I'm down there playing Cueball. Just a token but if everyone gave something small from time to time then I'm sure it would add up! And you would no longer have to pay for the site out of your own pocket :worship: when so many of us benefit from and enjoy using it!

Well given the context you can surely understand my inference? Anyway save your energies for our match, you may need them! =)

Danny,if we make cheques payable to D.Evans,there is nothing to stop Donna from stealing them and paying them into her offshore account !! She must have to raise a considerable amount to fund any future wagers with the Power (real or imaginary). :lol:

Really you don't have to do that but thank you for the gesture :)
Just the fact that people appreciate the hard work that both myself and Sass put in is payment enough :sick:
I've come to the conclusion that Gary has more money than sense :laugh:
