OK, I guess you guys do it daily so it's no big deal for you,  but
you've been very helpful in helping me understand what needs to be
done.  

It's registered with 123-reg and we'll probably use them for hosting
until we know better! 

Of course, I suppose I could have just clicked the first "buy now"
button I saw, but I always prefer to understand what I'm doing and why
- and I couldn't have done that without your  your patience and
kindness

What a gobsmackingly fantastic domain name!!!! Get Bob Geldof in on the act 
now!

It's good that someone asks a question and listens to the answer. You'd be 
amazed how many come on this forum and similar and just start arguing with 
the advice they're given.

Well, now you mention it I suppose it is quite memorable, isn't it. 

The full name of the charity (not a ltd co) is "Soft Landings Parrot
Aid". Oddly we were going to try for softlandings.co.uk etc but that
was already taken by a playground mat company!  I think I'm glad it
was now. 

We just have to make proper use of it now, and that certainly won't be
by using "InstantSite".  What total rubbish.  

Would you (or indeed anyone) have any idea how long it should take for
the 'default page' to go away once the single 'holding page' has been
created? 

Thanks again
