    My apologies for thinking it was your shop it was just that on one of your posts you recommend a web hosting web site which suggested you have an on-line business.....sorry.

    do be aware that T&C of your ISP might prevent you doing so :)
    In the United Kingdom 200,000 people are bitten by dogs every year and some people will die as a result. Of those bitten, 70% are children... So the question has to be asked....... Has the time come to ban children?

    for domain name, have a look at https://www.123-reg.co.uk or https://www.1and1.co.uk. they dont cost an arm and an leg. with the domain, you get emails as well. if you get free webspace from your ISP, you can point the domain to use the webspace.

    I don't know if 1and1 have changed they way they operate but I bought a domain through them a couple of years ago, only to find that I was tied into their hosting package - which I didn't want as I already had loads of space on another hosting package that I already had set up. Had to pay an extra £5 to transfer to 123-reg (whom I've never had a problem with) in order to release myself.

    1and1's hosting isn't expensive but the problem is that you CAN'T change the DNS settings to host your site anywhere else - or at least that was the case a couple of years ago.
