On the 1st October subs will rise to £15 a year, a price calculated to counter the direct costs of running the club and the amount of work it takes to administer. And, importantly, still offer fantastic value to Funsters.

Bargain. Saved more than that with just one piece of advice and that is without going into all the help and time Sifta Sam gave me. Plus it can be quite a giggle on here and at the rallys it must be said.... :party2:

I reckon you should put it at £15 minimum but with ability to anonymously add more should a Funster feel like it.

Bravo Jim and Sian :clap2::clap2::clap2:

Well as we sit here on a MHF meet in the pouring down rain and reflect upon the weekend, the fellow funsters and the laughing I ask myself "can I justify another fiver a year?".

It's not a difficult decision to make and barely took 2 seconds. "You bet ya I can!"

Jim & Sian thank you for working so hard and introducing us to lots of new friends :clap2:

Yes Jim, thanks a bunch; and then you want even more money, Jeez most of them are Welsh for Christ's sake, these two Taffies popped in to see us last week-end on the scrounge for a cuppa and some crumbs from the table...... They were peering through the windows before I could slam the door and pretend we were out....... surely I should get reduced subs as a result, pretty please......

ive found this forum to be very informative and if I take into the calculation ,the savings on buying a MH from Europe, its a no brainer , I spent £20.00 (kesriel is my other half) and going by what I read on here I decided to order my mh from Europe and saved around 22k on the brit price .
a fiver does not even buy you a gallon of diesel or a night on a cl these days

I'm happy with the the increase because if Corbyn nationalised this British institution the subs would go up to at least £20 and it would only be accessible in normal office hours. :)

oeer DBK , your pushing providence there(y) , you could have been sin binned to the belly locker for that one:smiley:

£15 don't you know i'm Scottish, I thought i'd do a pros and cons list to see if it was worth it.

i come on here get nothing but cheek and insults then i read one of old mo's jokes and feel even more depressed than i was at the start. Also i have a daughter whos just headed off to Uni and is spending my money as if its going out of fashion and you ask me for more money.

well thats the pros really struggling to find any cons :):).

On a serious note the money i have saved due to the help and assistance on here is incredible, over the years i've saved a few £ here and there until this year as i have just ordered my new van from Germany with a saving in the region of £16k so i think you'll be stuck with me for a wee while yet.

Jim, you are Sian are amazing! You really shouldn't worry about losing members; anyone who can't appreciate how much you two do in keeping Fun the way it is isn't worth keeping! Ron and I have only been members for a year, but it has been one of the best years of our lives simply because of Fun. We have laughed so much, made amazing friends and learned so much.
Like many we find money tight, with Ron being a pensioner ( :rofl: ) and Jon off to Uni, and yet another mouth to feed (thank you for Taffy too!) but in the scheme of things £15 for a whole year is nothing!
Thank you....and long may you reign supreme as King and Queen of Fun! :party:

I'm one of the original members from 2007 and when Jim first charged for subs I refused and for 4-5 years was a read only member. Earlier this year I decided to subscribe and Pat and myself have been on 4 excellent meets with Fun and very friendly Funsters.
I definatley will be staying and truly wish I had subscribed a lot earlier.
Thanks Jim and Sian for all the hard work providing this excellent site.

John, Pat.

i'll cut out this weeks curry takeaway and save the money for next years subs :LOL:

seriously - the amount of info on here is well worth £15. Anyone who chooses not to renew either thinks they know everything already or just does the same old thing with their MH every time they go away (same site, same routine....) and therefore doesnt need to ask questions and has little new to impart.

From the first meet at Llanwenog when I didn't even realise it was your home, which you both welcomed us into as new members, to the brilliant holiday we have just spent with Dawn and Martin, that would make the subs well worth it.

But add to that the meets attended, the rally in Spain and all the Funsters met there and in Portugal, a mad hen night, so many amazing nights in a marquee, a wonderful week with Funsters in Dorset, did I mention the new friends met, cancellation of the CC and C and C memberships, £15 a year? For us it's a no brainer.

Did I mention new friends met..... I think I did, but I kept the best till last... Some will have already guessed, but for those who haven't...
