The February Magazine Issue

RowenaBCAMC

Hi everyone,

Just to let you know the more environmentally-friendly issue of the February Caravan and Motorhome Club Magazine in a paper wrapper (replacing the old plastic covering) will be delivered a few days later than normal. Apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Another point that’s been listened to👍🏻👍🏻

Cheers, Ro.

I hope the paper wrapper is waterproof

Huskypup,

Several of the 'monthly mags' that I receive have dumped envelopes or wrappers entirely ! They arrive as naked as jaybirds  pop thro' my letterbox and are normally read within the day -- with no need for drying, roasting or toasting whatsoever . So your paws should be quite safe !!

I was wondering why the magazine is going to be a few days late . Maybe the powers that be haven't harvested enough spuds to convert to starch .😀😀.

A better late than never re-think, good to hear, thanks Ro.

Great news. No need to take it out of the wrapper to recycle with the leaflets falling out. Far neater, Wish C&CC had gone the same route instead of a compostable wrapper.

would a better option be to just cxl your hard copies, it is possible

As a member of the Radio Society of Great Britain I have been receiving their  club magazine  in a Bio-degradable wrapper for some time, I understand that the RSGB has about 22,000 members  compared with the C&MC which has some 700,000.

I can accept that the change in packaging may have delayed the physical copy. However, why is the even more environmentally friendly digital copy not available?

Just as well we're not longer members - Mrs M gets very twitchy about any magazine I get delivered wrapped in a brown paper envelope!

But is it ? potato starch , seen how many years it takes to break down . Also some councils dont accept its recycleable

I hope the new price list is enclosed to save on postage🤪

  but then they do come from different adresses

SteveL

You can of course down load it as a PDF and be even more environmentally friendly.

We could all give up caravaning/motorhoming and be even more environmentally friendly

 Cannot see the problem with the compostable wrapper, it can go straight into our green bin.

At least the CCC have upped their game and produce a quality magazine - if only the CAMC could match that!

JVB66

Where is the "quality"part of the ccc mag? , not noticed that in the ones they send me in the post

MikeyA

Quality is in the eye of the beholder. 

Are you saying that the CAMC magazine is better than the CCC offering?

JVB66

No ,or worse, they are both  normally more adverts than interesting reading, but then adverts keep costs of publication  down

tricia11

Not to me

tricia11

Quite agree, what would the club do then😩

Thank you for the information Ro.  I know the external wrap of the magazine is something the Club have been thinking about for a while.

Hi SteveL,

Just to let you know you can opt out of receiving paper comms from the Club and we do have a digital version of the magazine if you prefer:

www.caravanclub.co.uk/blog/club-magazine/archive/ 

We also have the magazine app which you can download from the Android Play Store and Apple App Store. 

more information on the Club magazine can be found here: club-magazine

I hope this helps.

Two problems for me there, Rowena. That link to the archive doesn't work, and for me neither does the magazine app. I've downloaded to my Android phone and tablet but all I get on both is the club logo. I was hoping the 2018 TCOY supplement would be on there. 

Anyone else having these problems?

Hi

Try copying and pasting the url for the archive. It should work then. Otherwise try this link - https://www.caravanclub.co.uk/blog/club-magazine/archive/

I'm not sure why you are experiencing problems using the App. When did you last try and what phone/tablet did you use?

 

brue

Rowena's link doesn't work for me but you can go into the membership section at the top of the page and click on the "magazine" which will take you to this area >LINK<

 

Ah, this link doesn't work either!! But try the membership section for all the details.

edit That's strange it is working now, there was a delay.

Thanks SMH,  your link does work! 

PaulAbroad

Reinstalled and now working okay. Thanks.

Still not received ours, are they very late this month?.

Wondering why the magazine hadn't arrived, thought Brexit might be to blame!!!!!!

Thanks for the info/update, Rowena
