# Can anyone host a flash file or 2 for me?
blode 6 and a few others appear to have killed the server they're on. not for the first time. blueyonder / btinternet etc free accounts rather than paid-for bandwidth accounts would be appropriate as the files demand a lot of bandwidth, and the freebie ones that come with connections such as blueyonder are, well, free.
Anyone fancy helping me out? please? pretty pretty please? (grovel grovel) - I always put in a thankyou link by the way

# Yay!
would either you or the fnordster be up for hosting a file or 2? blueyonder are fantastic- genuinely unlimited bandwidth- never had any probs with them at all. Could you either email me ftp details to joel @ rathergood dot com or give me an email address to send swf files to? Wicked. Woo. Also, url for thankyou link would be good.

# Not big files
they just get downloaded a lot. no disk space issue. the issue is bandwidth, and with blueyonder that seems to be no issue at all.

# yeah, I was due for some spring cleaning of my webspace anyway
it was either that or sign up for the 1MB thing and get even more to fill up.

# oh, I'm just this guy...
James Burke, who used to hang around with Toby Davies, who used to be friends with Alex. small world I guess, I did think there was a resemblance when I saw pictures of you...

# not TOBY Toby?

I saw his name once on an internet messageboard ;)

# to be fair
I'm not *the* James Burke, just a James Burke

# But you command the stage
so well.
Toby Davies's name did ring some bells at first, but then I realised it couldn't have been him.
Not after the 'operation' :)
