I have paid 6 months (from July when negotiations began) to the end of the year.
I will let peeps know when the six monthly payments are made which will serve as a reminder if one is needed.
That said, thanks to the generosity of people here the acct is still in the black, and I know Tim has other schemes in mind.
Thanks also to the people that have recently donated without posting here.

Been a bit busy at work, but as said before, Thanks for the support from all those who contribute, both with wit, humour, complete bloodymindedness, complete lack of bloodymindedness, help, advice, money and anything else I have forgotten.
As this is a money donation thread, ill err towards those who've donated dosh and say 'Cheers very much' specifically to them.
For those who havent for whatever reason, please do not sweat it.

Bugger me only just seen this thread! (I only ever usually pop in to the Falco bits!)

<< I take it that's the embarrassed smiley(!)
Anyway a tenner is winging its way to Mr Kwack through the ether as we speak (I'm Kris Bevan). I've saved that many many times over thanks to all the great advice on here (and spent many times more than that on mods thank to the er... great advice on here!!)

Put it in your diary, phone, blackberry, on computer or whatever! Failing that, make a post to say you've donated and just do a search for it when you think it's a while since you sent some dosh?
Although I'd appreciate a heads up myself, I can't see Sam & K wanting to remind people individually.

It is now December so consider yourselves reminded.

I've had this problem before - I try to donate via that button but it insists on my logging in to Paypal. Now we have a paypal account but it's really Mike's and before you could pay via Paypal but using a bank card rather than your Paypal account - now it doesn't offer that option!
Can I send a cheque?

In order to do that paypal would charge us 20 quid a month for 'website payments pro'
fekkers!
Im sure Sam will come up with something however that would probably involve him accepting the cheque and paying it onwards into the paypal account that was enabled for us to control payments.
Im never sat still long enough to take that on

No I've had a better idea - I'll use Paypal and give Mike a tenner!
Edit - done!

Thanks Bobbi and Tommy, as well as anyone else I have missed.
At the end of the day the Site/Forums are only as good as the membership make it.

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.

Donation sent via PayPal.
As many others have said - it's the people who make this place worthwhile.
It's the V-twin thing. There's just something about it that inline-4s don't have at all, and V-4s don't have enough of.
