Its so much easier to do what I do - pay by standing order - then I don't

I can confirm everything you say, and thank you for pointing them out. Of
course, overseas members don't, and have not, paid VAT.
As Membership Secretary, I must admit I liked the part where you say you
wish to pay your subscription in advance at the fair in September.Any
other
member is free to do the same [ hint hint ]
Regards,
Stan,
Gwynedd FHS.
