And no, because of what Stu said above.
Stu, I counted the gold memberships this morning, there are 12 pages of 50, so that's 600 odd considering the 12th page isn't full.
I presume you're saying they are not all paid up as spadge hinted before.
That list is the list of all whom have contributed since the scheme began, not those who have current gold membership. In the early days that was subject to UK vat and administration costs and is now subject to French vat and administration costs. Before anyone makes any daft comments, and those costs up... scary how much the government enjoy PF's existence
It would suit me just fine if PF started making a good profit

although im sure there are many folks who will think thats totally out of order too!
