Still no website! The problems behind this reminds me of a conversation I had with a friend a few years ago. I was watching the news when the terrible tsunami laid waste to Fukashima. My friend kept telling me I shouldn't be so concerned with things on the other side of the world, that I was "buying into the global panic". I didn't feel like I was panicking, I was concerned for the people affected and also aware that the impact of this disaster would be far reaching. Three months later the same friends was complaining that his new hard drive cost much more than it would have a year ago. I explained the hard drive factories in Fukashima were destroyed, causing a drop in supply hence an increase in cost. A global event on the other side of the world had affected his bank account, take about a butterfly effect.
Such is the problem with our new website. Our old site just worked on pay pal. The new site is built and ready to go, but needs a merchant e-commerce back account for payments. These accounts have been used by terrorists and criminals in the past, and so they are now strictly regulated. A global issue is slowing us up. However we have now been given the green light, it's just a matter of getting our account number sorted out and transferring our domain! Much like the old British Rail, we're getting there, and like any great journey the destination will be worth the travel.
