[UK-CONTEST] Joining the RSGB at 14?

[g3ory at lineone.net]

Ken,

Might your failure to clock up 50 years of membership have anything to 
do with the fact that there was a glitch in the membership record 
keeping in (I think) the early  1980s. I joined in 1960 but my original 
membership date is now shown as 1974. I keep meaning to do something 
about it.......!
