 Hi gangue,

Been there, done that got the tee-shirt. I did the same as Steve, but I
e-mailed Michael first to check if it was ok, and then let him know I
had sent it.

Michael CAN accept payemts in certain currencies, AFAIK US $, UK pounds
and I remember DM being mentioned.

Do it now! e-mail Michael and ask if he can accept your $ or whatever and
send it off now, and NO I don't get commission from Michael (but he's
definitely buying the Pilsner when I get to Prague 8>} 0h?)

Yes, you are taking a bit of a chance, but we're talking the price of a
couple of rounds of drinks, or a couple or three McDonald's "Yucky (happy)
Meals" here to register what is now a pretty good programme on up to ten
machines on a non commercial basis. That works out at around 3$ or so for
each machine. That's hardly going to break the Monte Carlo banking system.

Impecunious students apart, why not do it this week?

Regards

Mel
