Hi there

Thanks so much for supporting us, we're really happy that you found us and that nearly 50,000 of you have visited us in recent months.

Your donations made recently have helped us reach 77% of the April-June quarterly funding target to meet our operational costs.
Thanks everyone!

Thanks to generous supporters like Nicholas Kitto in Hong Kong for going the extra mile and also sponsoring several of our almost 300 features. You can do this too for a donation of $50 this month.... and with more features added this week you've plenty to choose from!

You'll enjoy these new features and the updated radio guides at
www.radioheritage.com this month, and soon you'll enjoy the benefits of our new content system where we can offer much more.

Currently, we've got until Tuesday July 31 to find $1,262.91 to meet the remaining bills for our operational costs* for this month.....so we need your help and here's the idea....................

Would you be willing to donate $6.25 before Tuesday, July 31....that's about two nice cups of coffee...using the donation button at
www.radioheritage.com?

It will take just 1% of you who who have visited us to do this and help us cover our bills, and you'll be true blue champions!

In return, and right now, we'll share two more tried and trusted recipes from the original 1930's Aunt Daisy's Radio Cookery Book that will make your $6.25 donation much easier to digest..............

First, choose your favorite radio station to keep you company! Then, melt the butter with the Golden Syrup. Add the baking soda which has been dissolved in 2 tablespoons of boiling water.
