Our website shopping cart system, which has been working fine for ages (since the last time a bunch of changes by PayPal broke it) has started playing up again. I’d been wondering why we’d had a very quiet (ie dead) weekend for orders, until a prospective customer very kindly let us know what had been happening. It appears that you can place one item in the shopping cart and everything is fine, but if you try to place any more in it then this rather helpful error message appears:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I’m guessing that once again PayPal have made some changes to their system, and hopefully (as they have in the past) the problems will suddenly resolve themselves in a day or two. In the meantime, if you want to place an order with us, you can send me an email<\/a> and I’ll get back to you with a PayPal invoice (hopefully they still work !) as soon as I can.<\/p>\n

*UPDATE* 19\/01\/2018<\/strong> – hopefully this is fixed<\/a> and we’re back to normal…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
