Thanks Mark! I sent £75 (which turned out to be $125)... The funds reported
they will be available tomorrow.

As a quick aside, if you choose "send money to friends or family" instead
of a purchase, the event and you will pay much lower transaction fees -
this leaves more of the money available to the organizers!
