I ask the question because i believed that  one of the main benefits was access to the network of club sites and cls/This clearly is not the case.Today i tried to book for the club site at Baltic  Wharf Bristol for either November or December this year ,only
to find that the site is fully booked except for about three odd nights. This site is a very popalar site with others peple complaining about not being able to book . Yet this site is open to non members, so what  benefit do we have in paying our £43 membership
fee?? I also looked at the latest period that i could book this site that  being April 2014 and find that in March 2014 the site is fully booked over the week-ends, Could some one from the Club office please confirm how many of the bookings that are made for
November & December 2013 are made by non members. I have been a member since 1978 but i am now coming to the conclusion that the club offers no real benefit .Earlier this year i tried to order camping Cheques buit could not because i did not book a return
ferry crossing with the club,
