I think we need to put things into some perspective here, We Have since 2007 - 2012 had under 100 subscriber members, most chipping in a fiver, But we would like to thank you guys who have contributed a little more into the pot 
So lets do the Math! 100X£5 = £500 = 5 Years
It Cost the forum Just under £100 per year to keep it online with domain charges, Buying Space and bandwidth, We do it this way to keep the Forum free of adverts and pop ups it also helps to keep the site secure for us all.
Our Priority is to keep at least 1 to 2 years of fees in reserve to keep the forum online because no one knows what will happen in the future and we don't know how many new subscribers we are going to attract.
We do have a surplus of just over £100 and are in the process of sorting out a banner and window stickers with this money, which will help promote the club in the years to come, As for tee shirts, Sweatshirts, and Huddies, unfortunately no one is the same size or shape, the only way we could order these item at a reasonable price would be to take orders and payment in advance, but unless we get at least 50 orders the price would too high for many members.
Unfortunately Chris and I are not millionaires we are just ordinary working guys with a passion to keep our 126's and 500's on the road, We don't run a Business through the Website, In this day and age everything costs money as I'm sure you are all aware. So what it boils down to is the more Subscriber Members we have the more we can do 
If a design can be designed, I would be able to sort it out. The problem is that it would have to be on a preorder basis, only being able to send to print once there were enough (assume 100, may only be 50 though). I know nothing about moving money, so it would be best if people sent me a postal order (or something like that) with a stamped, self addressed envelope. That way when they go to print I could get them sent off the day they are done.
Everyone would know what they are paying, and I could send you or Chris the receipt to
post up on here for the sake of transparency. Would put all but a couple of pints of profit back into the club as well
.
Should be a pound profit on each unit for the good of the club, so 100 stickers = £100 - two strongbows @ £3.30 each =£93.40 profit to the club
Although, judging by the uptake on the register, 50 is probably a bit ambitious. (you know who you are
, get yourself on the register
)
