Title: 2013 BCA Cards
Post by: Ian A on Feb 07, 2013, 02:27 PM
Just an update ....

I sent off the renewal form for the club and it's members after the AGM (part is done by email which includes the list of members and part is done on paper for the club details including access agent issues (and, of course, the cheque)).

Although it is obviously a busy time of year for the BCA renewal officer I had hoped to have heard something back by now and I have therefore sent a small nudge.

Hopefully we will have everything through ASAP.

And ....

I have had a reply already and here it is ...

Yup, they were among the 1,000 cards posted today.
 
And now back to the coal face....
 
Cheers,

Dan mentioned that he had been refused a permit by CNCC for Lost John's as "UCET" was not a BCA registered club - I was "irritated" to say the least.

I then forgot all about that (because I am good at being a numpty) but then saw Simon's post which reminded me and which spurred me into action.

What a permit?

It forwards to your personal email Ian
Title: 2013 BCA Cards
Post by: Ian A on Feb 11, 2013, 11:01 AM
All BCA cards have been posted first class today except those which were handed out at SRT training last night and;

Guy (I have it)
Joel & Mike L (Vikki has them)???????
Phil (waiting to confirm address by text) - confirmed and sent
Hwyel (requested it stay in the "office" for now)

When you receive the card in the post you will note that the handwriting is very poor. This is because I found writing out addresses to be EXTREMELY boring and my brain resorted to a failed state of garbage  :dry:

Hello Ian, I received my card but it had the wrong name on it (Griffin) so I phoned the BCA and they will be sending a new card via you.
