well sort of ,they say their new gang ( sorry club ) non members can view the forums .. so thats obviously what they did on the other sites .. ( if they even did )

but as said before some of the cc has never graced teh site with their presance and those who did , did on a small amount of times.. so they found the time to site on the net and find 16 other clubs and checked out their forums and sat and read each and every one of their rules ....

 yeah i believe you's

but 16 other clubs , would be good to know which ones or was it a lucky guess

Certainly not. It's for members only, don't you know...  Alright. 35 and I'll give you the gist...

No it's not! I got a copy - and I haven't paid my last 35 squid

Cats know your every thought.

But don't care.

This version seems to be going into the club mag but it appears to be the same lies that were in the letter.
