Technology and apologies

Update posted by Sarah and Paul Pinfield

Hi there. Just a quick note, firstly to apologise if we haven't got back to you to say thanks yet.. we will get there but one of the problems of being in a remote place is connectivity. We're actually a bit outside the stated range of the nearest cell phone tower and the signal, which is normally just bearable, has now become almost nonexistent. Apparently the equipment on the tower is failing. So, apologies for that, we're doing the best we can with it.

The other thing, we started with the campaign total in US dollars, as we are in Panamá, but our bank account is in the UK. So we were converting currencies twice, at extra cost. We changed the campaign to £s, but the total has remained at 6,000, which is more than $6,000. We only just realised this! We think it's less confusing to leave the numbers as they are, and explain here.

We hope you agree.

Thank you again for all your support.
