Club magazine doing the rounds
Can someone explain to me why I get the magazine with a label showing a return address in Sweden, covered up by another label with a return address in Vienna and a further label with a Hungarian address and three seem to be from some postal service? Does the magazine really do the rounds across the length and breadth of Europe before it gets to me?

that's what happens over there
I have no idea and it does sounds very strange, perhaps people read it in the various post offices on the way to you? Read it then re-seal and send it on? It is a popular read.
Just out of interest what regional edition do you get? What letter is there next to the August 2018 at the top? Mine is N (I assume northern) is yours labelled OT?

Really strange Lutz. Sounds like the Mag has been routed by the CMC IT department, ---The same way as the routing of their IT takes so long to respond. A look at their Routing for both communication methods by people who know what they're doing might just speed everything up.

wow, south Northern Ireland?
again just out of interest does the club deliver the magazine all over the world? So far you have the record for the longest postage!

SW here.
However, I’d rather read articles about other areas of the country rather than the bits I’m very familiar with.

All a little bizarre really. A club that caters for touring caravans divides up the country, prints different articles in different areas - with places on interest generally local to the division.
How many divisions? How many different articles? Why not put all articles in each magazine and make the magazine worth reading? Oh yes it will add to the postage 😲. I find the magazine totally bland now and only skim it. So sad for the amount of effort required to write, layout, print, package etc etc let alone the environmental issues including plastic wrapping 😲😲. Yes I could opt not to receive it but no financial benefit to myself and I gather the online version works like the rest of the webpages 😉😢

We cancelled our copy of the magazine because the worthwhile editorial content was getting less as each month went by, and we had reached the point where it didn't really get read at all. I wonder how much it really costs (net after advertising income) to publish and distribute it, and what reduction of membership fee could be realised by cancelling it.

did read once that it pays for itself from the adverts alone
