Hello, thanks everyone for the comments and Whirly in particular for offer of (now unnecessary) PM.
The letter I sent did arrive, but there were delays caused by holiday and things. Anyway, I'm now a signed up member and hope I can make it to the xmas do if possible. Hope to meet some of you in the flesh then maybe.
Also got an e-mail from Tricia Nelmes welcoming me. I expect, if she's seen this thread, they've worked out which new member this ppruner is by now!
I fuond out about them through an advert somewhere I think, or an article. Could it even have been in GASIL??? Nah, maybe not. Anyway, it wasn't word of mouth, as when I learned to fly, there was no one in my life but my instructor I could talk to about flying. That has changed now...
