If you would like consider helping me out to cover the cost of making these videos it would be humbly appreciated. This stuff does actually cost in travel, data storage equipment etc and although I create content because I love doing it, the recent price hikes here in the UK have cut a deep swathe's into our budgets. I don't do Patreon at this time and Buy Me A Coffee is a little too authoritarian. The best way to help would be to make a small donation to my PayPal account.
