I wanted to post on the other thread but it's been closed.
I can't afford to join a club yet but I plan to as soon as I can.
Why?
1.) Better facilities.
2.) Cleaner facilities, (no poo sprayed minging toilets)
3.) Decent customer service.
4.) Better opportunities for networking.
5.) Better class of people IMO.
Now I know I'm going to get flamed for number 4 and I don't care. Wealthy and successful people are generally better educated and I would prefer my kids to mix with educated, successful people most of the time. I would also prefer that the better manners, ambitions and social skills of educated playmates rub off on them.
Just off to put on the flame proof coat......
