Quite frankly, is not this all (without wishing to offend anyone) a bit silly? Someone comes up with the very laudable idea of a new monthly meeting but instead of airing this via ACtion which is the Club's official means of communication to its members, puts it on the Forum and then is upset because of the poor response. The Forum is much inhabited by a peripheral fringe lurking on the sidelines who do not wish to subscribe financially to the Club's welfare and the services it offers but yet they may wish to obtain information from and use the Club's resources for their benefit or exchange views for free. I have been a member of the Club since 1968 and know a great many people, some of whom are close friends. Of all those I know, I am aware of only two people who look at the Forum. It is a totally false assumption that the Forum is the mainstay of the Club's way of broadcasting information to the Membership. If an idea for a new area meeting is to be suggested then the best means of reaching the Membership is via ACtion.
