I can't even view the classifieds, so can I assume we're now on a subs basis? That's fine by me, just can't see a link to the paypal or whatever?

Cheers, Ell.

No reason that you should not be able to see the classifieds, just click the donations link at the top of the main page.

I am only an occasional visitor and have missed the banner reminder to donate, I need an email. I do find the resources, help and advice that SSUK offers invaluable. On that basis I would certainly subscribe and would prefer it to donating. I just find the donation idea too vague (how much to donate?). Paying a subscription then I would presumably get an email reminder? That'd be great 👍

I too cannot access the classifieds and now feel like I've done something wrong.

Must have been some sort of glitch but, have tested Andrew and Elliot's settings and all is well. Please try again. Nobody has done anything wrong!!

I have opened this thread for further discussion. Please feel free to comment.
As mentioned, (email) I am not a fan of subscription - but happy to send a donation. DONE !
Yes I agreee - banner a message when funds get low.
