Excellent. Keep up the good work CJ :smt023

I take it that means the annual hostings fees will be due for payment. Will sort you out at the meet tomorrow.

Happy Birthday
I thought this club was running longer although I did wonder why the member list is only 4 years old.
Was there a predecessor to this club?......I recall joining an Irish members club back in 2001 but had problems logging on and eventually gave up the ghost after losing access the web for a while.
There certainly was a Site with a similar set up back then.
Any Connection?

Huzza!

10e sent.. :-)

Sticking in CJs old old old post here, just in case anybody's looking for ideas on how to donate.. there's a also the Donate button if you scroll down :-) (WAYYYY down!)

Its come around to that time of the year whereby hosting charges and domain renewal have come around again for fto-ireland.com. Over the past 2 years, I've been happy to foot the bill in that regard, bantering with you guys about somthing that I'm madly enthusiastic about has been a pleasure If this you feel you have benefited from this site in any great way, what I would like to suggest is that you consider donating a small sum to help with the running costs of the site. This is explicitly optional and I don't want to put pressure on anyone, however, any donations, no matter how small, would be warmly welcomed. If you have a Paypal account, you can donate to cjay@eircom.net , alternatively, PM me if you would like to donate using another method.

Thanks in advance

Thanks all. wob, there are no member charges as such but the site has been paid for in large by member donations over the past couple of years.

There was a group of FTO owners who got together 5-6 years ago and met on a semi regular basis, myself and Kace were part of that crew (although I came on the scene pretty late if the truth be told). There was a website knocking about but it didn't stay around long. At about that same time, myself and a previous owner (Rob - some of you may have met him at Tunnel meet) decided to try and bring things back to life with a website of sorts, the rest is history....
