Why is there is no longer a sterling or euro option for 1yr contributions (though there is for 5yr)? … see http://www.physicsforums.com/payments.php

I don't know the answer to your question-- maybe it's to save having to calculate exchange rates on a regular basis. If you look at the 5 year option, you'll see that the rates quoted are very favourable towards sterling, and so I imagine were set quite some time ago!

No Smash Martians but a single Nipper plus several Muffin the Mules,antique childs sewing machines,egg cups, tea pots,brewernalia,teddy bears,wind up horn gramophones,scientific instruments,old radios(including an early1920s BBC crystal set which still works)the list goes on and on and most of the stuff is stored in the loft.
I don't know how to send photographs or other attachments but it is something I have been meaning to learn for some time now and I will certainly have a crack at it.During the week my son is flying off to yet another exotic location and I may have to wait until he returns.

I this has been answered, but for future inquiries, the following might be helpful.

I believe payments are through PayPal.

Payments are through Paypal, but you do not need a Paypal account. There will be an option to pay with credit card.
