I received a donation about a week ago and I replied in my usual manner, but the email bounced back. To the member who gave the donation please let it be known that I appreciate your very kind gesture and apologize for not responding personally, I have sent you a second email so we will see if that one bounces back.

I would like to thank the people who have made recent donations to the forum, all monies go to building and maintaining the forum and it helps to cover the daily running costs as well, if I wasn't receiving donations the forum would not exist, so thank you.

This forum relies heavily on shop fees and members donations to keep afloat, ongoing host fees plus domain fees and registration costs all take a toll on finances, any changes that need to be made to the forum many of which members don't see all cost a substantial amount. I am extremely gratefull to all those members who have donated to the forum as it is their generosity that keeps the forum alive, please keep the donations coming.

Hello Des

Just sent a little something which I hope will help in some way.

I haven't been involved much since the SE5 having been hopelessly sidetracked but I do pop in from time to time. I purposefully have not followed any threads so my apologies to fellow members for that but it's a bit like a kid in a sweet shop with no money in his pocket. I have been adding to the stash (Taube on order) and do intend to come back to WWI soon.

Currently I'm sidetracked on an elephant - no not the Martynside but a 'white one'. I  bought a Trumpeter 1/35 aircraft carrier so many years ago. My wife has always referred to it as my 'white elephant' and a chance remark from a club colleague saw it on the bench - you know the rest.

Rest assured 'I will be back' , in the meantime I hope this small contribution will help in keeping such a fine Forum ticking over.

My best regards - Tug

My many thanks to the latest member to donate to the forum, his very kind and generous donation helps to cover the costs of setting the Website and Forum as safe sites, the SSL Certificates don't come cheap. You will all notice that the Website and Forum now have a safe green padlock, I have done this to protect all the forum members.
