Do we have a running tally at all, Spoolman? Be interested to see how far along the path to achieving the goal we are, especially with Christmas almost upon us.

On that note, IIRC in previous years we've had a running tally graph in the header for the site. Any chance of having something similar again as it may just help spur on the donations?

I was told there is a technical issue, best I leave this one to Russ to answer as I know zero about the software workings of the Forum.

There was indeed a technical issue but after re-installation of all the forum add-ons last night and a bit of troubleshooting, the donation bar is now working.

Great effort guys I am about to add $600 from Rob Herrod and the $120 from the brake lines.
Lets keep it going, if you haven't donated every bit helps this wish will actually cost approx $7500.
I spoke to Make A Wish today they had a look at our site today and asked if I could pass on a huge thank-you to every-one who has contributed, they are also happy to give every person a email certificate with there name on it, so if you have contributed and you would like a M.A.W. certificate send me your email address and your real name.

One more thing I can share with everyone, I was asked in an earlier post what was Isaac's illness he has cancer of the kidney's.

Thanks to everyone for the magnificent effort - I'd reset the target to $5,000 after Spooly posted the total amount for the wish above and we've almost reached that $5,000 target but if we keep going then we might be able to reach the entire $7,500 by Christmas Eve and be guaranteed that it will happen.

To kick that extra push off, my small team of employees have thrown in $500 which my company will match.

Cheers
Russ
