Complaints to the BBC

Do I provide a useful service. In 2021 I spent over £3k in hosting costs to keep this site up at peak times which is a ludicrous amount at the best of times never mind during a cost of living crisis where my advertising revenue for October is down 40% on 2021 meaning I have much less income to meet the hosting costs than before!
