Daystate Owners Club

[Rob Laidlaw]

I joined over the phone a few weeks ago, I am not really sure it's of any benifit though.
The 10% discount seems ok but I am sure if you get on well with your local dealer you could probably push for that anyway.
I recieved my news letter but don't remember seeing anything about a membership number or anything like that, the trouble is Daystate are a pretty good company anyway and treat the owners well without having to join the club, I broke my magazine, (took it apart and lost the spring like an idiot) sent it off to them and they repaired it free of charge.

If you can afford the £15.00 then go ahead, if not then for what there is in the members area of their site I'd say save your money.

sorry rob, its a club mate, if you as a member dont add or input anything, how can we grow. the club is more than just one bloke doing all the work.
its easy to sit there and comment adversely - why not submit something instead?
i was up all night a few times on the project and recently carried out a strip and examination of a sportsman mk2 because theres nothing available elsewhere.

It is hard to run a mag / club - I speak as someone who had the misfortune to publish a Hang-Gliding mag for my local club.

90% of the time it was full of ****e, with 2/3 people contributing articles etc and me regurgitating old stuff and plagarising the rest.

I'll do my damnedest (spelling?) to do a write-up of my gun/scope/shoots etc - as soon as I get round to it.

I can only echo the comments from Tony that its a club, and if every member submitted an article just once a year, we'd all be better off.
