I have heard rumours but seen nothing in writing.

1. If we decide to remain members, will we continue to receive a plastic credit card style membership card, or will we be forced to download use a phone app?

2. Is the Sites Directory being republished as a paper book, or is this another obligatory phone app?

The other club still costs less to join and there's no £10 charge for non DD payments.

You don’t get a choice with the digital membership, that’s DD only.

Yes, that's the whole point it costs both clubs less in admin charges.

I think there might be a bit of a reduction for not getting a handbook and magazine  as well.😂

Site Directory and map arrived. No outward change to either but haven't delved into them yet. Did notice High Onn still showing, even though it's been announced that it will not open for '23 season.

I had a quick browse of the Site Direcetory, noting High Onn was still listed but not Marizion. I couldn't find anything about motorhome ownership in the technical section or any other area for that matter. Considering half the membership are motorhome owners, it is still very much the Caravan Club.

Its now consigned to a door pocket in the motorhome and it will be a rare occasion when it is  opened again.

Our handbook came yesterday, and we are glad to have it, after I accidentally disposed of the last one. We like to lay the map out, look at an area and trace a route, then pick our stops. We will supplement with non Club options. I just need to go through it and mark up our favourite CLs, but sadly plenty of time on my hands at the moment, so no chore. I will put in phone numbers of a few ex CLs as well.

I have no use of the map whatsoever, infact when I half unfolded it, I thought how quaint. The Club's POIs are of far more use but they need to be updated more often, every three months would be nice but once a year is not enough with all the CL changes that occur. I now do all my planning on Google Maps and save it to My Maps, transfering routes to Co-Pilot (where I have the POIs loaded) or even Park4Night. From the latter I can quickly see nearby places to stay on route.
