Recently there was long thread about the BCA. I can now post possible answers to some of the questions, such as "Why is the BCA still raising membership prices when there is a significant amount still left in its coffers?"
Bograt hasn't been active on the forum for a wee while as he's not been well. He's getting better and I'm sure you will be hearing from him again before too long.
All the best!
As he says himself: "Aim low, achieve your goals, avoid disappointment"
