2008 Subscriptions
 
Subscriptions for the new FIPSG year starting 1st September 2008 will be:
 
UK and Europe £15
Rest of World £20 sterling (or $40 US dollars)
 
The subscription form will be updated in August with the new membership fees. We regret the increase in subscription, but this reflects the increased postage costs for four copies of Upland Goose every year and is our first increase for many years.
