But you can transfer to another PayPal account of course!
True. Perhaps I should have said "get the money off Paypal".

The Foundation have a PayPal account,,,,
Yeah but ... well, I'm not going to patronise you here... but it would
be a bit boring if the only thing you could do with the money was to
transfer it to the Foundation, wouldn't it? ;-)
It might also not look so good when you apply for tax exemption /
deductibility (I don't know whether British authorities really
scrutinize each applicant...but in Switzerland, something like this,
viz. only spending money by forwarding, would be a major obstacle for
the application to succeed).
