Thinking of Giving A Stobart Club Membership for Christmas? A Word to the Wise...

Hi folks,
Not at all sure which folder this belongs in but, since it's vaguely Christmas present-related here's as good as anywhere.
Like thousands of others, my good lady and I relieve the monotony of long distance travel by "Eddie spotting". Last Christmas, I thought it would bring a smile to her face if I put a Stobart Club membership in her stocking. It did, and that alone made it worth the price.
One of the "benefits" is a chance to name a truck. I was under the impression that this was some sort of draw thing, but later found out that all club members get to name a truck. "Great" you might think, but here's the catch.
There's a FIVE YEAR waiting list and you MUST keep your membership active (£16/year) throughout..
Just something to keep in mind if you were thinking of it as a present. It's not a con, but they could make it a bit more transparent.
Festive felicitations.:xmassmile

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas.
But, if the white runs out, I'll drink the red.
