Paul, I bought my domain from APlus < http://www.aplus.net/ > in March 2004.
It cost me only $80 (GBP ~50 at the time) for 10 years. I had the domain
transferred to Catalyst2 < http://www.catalyst2.com/ > who provided hosting
at GBP 11.99 per year at the start. My site was brought up in August 2004
(ICANN delays is a policy) and has been inexpensive to run thus far.
