Desgraciadamente I don't these days have the resources to make a donation commensurate with the appreciation I have for your work all these years, but on the principle of 'every little bit helps', done.

And satan's paw does not surprise, staying true to his inimical ways. As soon as I saw your name next to a new post in this thread, this was exactly what I expected you to have emitted.

It was a legit question. In fact I'd be happy to donate as well.

We all pretended to donate so you’d be tricked into donating to an imposter posing as Simon. We are too clever by half.

Quite right. We are sure that Simon and his wife are on holiday in Florida after tricking all the foro members, several of whom know him personally

Done. Thank you for keeping this place going. Hugely valuable community and very much appreciated. We should brainstorm ways to keep it going in a sustainable way. Perhaps a collective Zoom call and a survey is in order!

Thank you so much. I do a lot of paying Zoom calls, so that is fine.

Say, is the PayPal link at the top of the page different then the link mentioned on your first post of this thread?

Asking for a friend ;)

That’s the one I used. It occurred to me later it might be anonymous, but not sure.

It is but it does not offer "friends and family" which some used and PayPal didn't like it. The donate button is classed as a donation.

It still comes to me but through PayPal donation channels.

That’s what I did, clicked in the PP link in the thread and noticed they looked slightly different. I think it will show the email of the account the sender uses.

Another note. I keep a few of those throw away credit cards for stuff like this. I get a couple at the airport at a vending machine while traveling etc of one is worried about data theft etc.

I do see the name and address of the donation through the Donate button. It is slightly different from a direct email but I cannot use that for reasons given.
