Some interesting facts about the membership over the years.
In 1914, during the WWI period, the annual membership fee was 5/-, or five shillings, equivalent in today's terms
to 25p.
Realistically; £17.20 using the retail price index, £22.72 using the GDP deflator, or £90.04 using the average earnings index.
This makes today's (2008) £2.40 to £ 4.10 fees extremely good value.
