its really good, didnt like the odd noise it made as it changed pictures.  Gets irritating after a while.  Rest was great.  Lovely picture of the tammies sleeping.  They look so content.

Good idea taking a third deposit up front.  Is this non returnable?

Hi,

Like the site - sounds dont bother me as I never turn my speakers on :-)

One word of advice, if you already havent done so, speak to your host / web-designer / software forum and make sure that there are no security additions or changes you need to make.

I see that you are currently not accepting payments on-line, but there are a lot of sites being hacked recently and ending up with the nasty google warnings. There are free "hacker safe" scans you can use, a very good one is the McAfee PCI Scanner, another is Acunetix Web Scanner - They will point out any holes in security on your site.

Thats one reason Im on here at night, keeping my site up to date with security modifications, running PCI scans and backing up data.

Thanks and Good Luck.

Sausage&cash, imho thats the only way to go it prevents really nice customers becoming absolute nightmares.

Yep, all I ever see on forums is 're-advertised due to time wasters'.

Its not just time they waste, especially when they make a big order, you turn down other customers to accommodate them and when you chase them to collect they have bought elsewhere ....... :-\
