As we approach our 5th birthday (the forum started on 09/11/17, but the main site actually started before this) I wanted to offer (like I did last year) a small thank you to all the users who have previously donated money to support the hosting of the website by doing a prize draw. Without donations we wouldn't be able to host the site and forums.
The hosting is paid in dollars and with the pound performing badly lately the costs are now exceeding £35 per month.
It's open to users who have previously (prior to 31/10/2022) donated £10 or more in total.
The prize this year is brand new copy (arrived today) of the English language version of Pascalated BASIC For the ZX Spectrum by Jose Oliveira. You can read all about it here.
This prize (and postage to the winner) is paid for by me personally, and not by donations.
How to enter:
Drop me a PM, and include the email address that you used to make your donations.
Closing date for entries is December 01 2022. The draw will then be done by my wife, and the prize will be with you by Christmas.
Postage is included if you live in the UK. Postage will be charged at cost for other countries.

Just wanted to formally thank @PeterJ for this; the book has arrived and looks very interesting.
And I also wanted to say thanks for all the pleasure the forum and website has given me over is five years.

Congrats, Uglifruit. Well deserved.
I code to live (Job) and I live to code (Retro). One of them has to give!
Re: 2022 Prize draw for members who have previously donated
I concur
And thanks to Peter and the team for making such a prize available too.
