Totally agree with your comments re the nominee for the Election, won't be getting my vote thats for sure!. The CLC members site has a standing Vacation Club Committee member onboard who shares what information they can - so i don't see any reason why Paradise Committee reps can't do the same.

Unforunately i believe apathy amongst existing owners to the AGM and the General running of the Resorts(excluding those who contribute on here) has given CLC the perfect opportunity to move the Goalposts - i have attended 3 AGMs in the past under the old Paradise Group Banner and the attendance at these has been not much larger than the 50 or so who attended last years - which on the face of it from something like 10000 owner families ( thats what the old paradise advertising blurb used to say anyway)is pretty P**s Poor. As CLC said in the covering letter if only 50 people turn up, then they assume everybody is happy with the way they run things !!!

Anyway i await the Free Accomodation offer from CLC so that i attend the AGM.......

Thanks Badger.

I've just doen a quick search on the net and found that you could fly with Monarch on Tuesday 7th June for �43 plus taxes and return on Wednesday 8th at 20.10 for �36 plus taxes. You'd just have to sort out accommodation and taxi fares! So not much change from �100 to attend the AGM.

Strangely that is about the same price as traveling to London for the AGM from Birmingham - standard cheap day return is about �107! (Bham New Street to Potters Bar)

Funny old world isn't it?
