Hi All
Arachne's Flickr account is now funded for another two years. They
offered us a 2 year price of $133, saving $11 over the 2 years, so I
decided to go for it.

Hi All
One of our members reminded me this weekend, that it is time to consider
our Flickr Subscription. In 2020, a group of Arachneans helped pay for a
2 year subscription, which expires mid-April 2022. The two year plan is
no longer available. The cost to us in April will be $72 for one year.
April 2022 I trust. :-)
