Perennial Membership Fee Increase

The complaints about the difficulty of booking pitches stems from just a few honey pot sites. Many other sites appear to be underused especially mid week.

...Which if correct proves that the complaints about not touring are not as some make out  

I assume you refer to the freedom to tour without booking which, if you were to singularly rely on Club sites, would I think still be a bit risky. I tour very little in this country.

I know I have said it previously, but it would be very interesting if the Club produced a breakdown of its membership demographics, age groups, members who make up a household touring unit, what area of country members come from, what length of breaks members are taking, here and abroad in outfits. I hope the marketing department has got such information at least. You can't really make assumptions based on CT alone.

Well I notice a lot of postings on CT come for northern parts of the UK especially Yorkshire.

...TDA you are so right even as Ro,s figure for ct  sign up show ,very few actually contribute, so it is only the perception of a very few,and even then by their own admission some do not or rarely use club sites,out of the thousands of members,but it would be interesting to see a breakdown

...And i think if you look at where the most large dealers are based compared to the "Home counties" it may be the largest membership base

Write your comments here... No, just means not likely to lay down and take whatever effluent comes our way! Still spikes on top of Bootham Bar in York, reserved for a few very special people! Actually Aske would be a better middle name, willing to die, horribly, for a good cause!

It does seem every year there is a large price increase on membership - think there will be a point where people look at alternatives. I guess the obvious one is the CC&C which is currently £37 for online membership - a £6 discount over paper. if CC offered electronic membership at £42 it would be a lot more competitve and would be an option I personally would take. Must be a 50p saving to be made in printing and postage of a magazine per month, would also take up less house space if the magazine was a PDF or similar.
