@Markblackfriars @BlackfriarsSett thanks for the suggestion - will add to growing list of ideas
@x00 Will consider other options, but just wanted something simple to kick things off.
@x00 I looked at Patreon a while ago but it didn’t seem very UK-friendly. Has that changed? We already had verified Paypal a/c.
@mrpjones £1 would probably not be viable due to processing fees, so (for example) £12 annual option may be better? All thoughts welcome.
@mrpjones thanks. Fair comment and good suggestion. We've had a few ideas in - will collate and then add to options.

@CllrJamesBarber When finished won’t it have the same number of tracks (but 1 extra platform)? One track didn’t have a platform before.
