Thank you all. It's not been fun, and there were times when the temptation to shut it all down and bugger off were quite close to the surface. However the outstanding generosity of board members, including a kind offer from an unexpected source, kept me on the straight and narrow.

There is no need for further donations, mainly due to the gobsmacking donations by two members, however if you feel like chipping in all donations will be saved towards the next hosting fees, (due soon.)

Funny innit? How much you can miss a group of people, who only really exist, with a few exceptions, in Cyberspace.

Then let me also thank those gobsmacking and anonymous members who so generously helped us all out.

Now that's an acceptable use. "It is funny, is it not?" shortened to "It's funny, isn't it?" which is then dimmed to "Funny, innit?"

But "She's really beautiful, innit" meaning, "She is really beautiful, isn't it?" is exceedingly moronic. Isn't it has no valid connection with the preceding statement. Obviously it should be, "She's a corker, ain't she?"
For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts

Nice point mate, they played a vital role, and did so selflessly.

I'm indebted.
