as stated in the post above they had a surplus on the balance sheet A good one, and made profit of the racing so must have been able to get it as it was last year :-/ and the constitution is if the fed is in debt each member pays their share , so really cant see any reason for such an increase when we are in the black both on the balance sheet and racing and money in the bank, last year worked out great so why the change, -??? a surplus money in the bank, so put up the FEES from £20 to £150 :-/
