Hi from wet rugby (but not as wet as many other places)

Hi Toby

You can only join one of the groups, especially as we are so close to each other we would both likely look to deploy at the same time.

Hah! If only that were the case.
It's this kind if thing that the National body should be there to 'enforce' (if not too strong a word).
Most of the Executive seem to agree that being an 'active member' of only one group is the right way, and yet if it's mentioned there is all sorts of sharp intake of breath and mumblings of "up to the individual team".
Maybe some backbone should be used to sort this out. Some groups are suffering as a result of deliberate 'behind the scenes machinations by others with regard to this subject.

My view is I don't see how you can be a member of two neighbouring groups as the chances are that both groups are likely to be deployed at the same time, and you obviously cant respond for both groups simultaneously.

Seems to me, Toby, that both groups now know you are trying to join both of them, aren't keen on that idea, and have replied in this thread accordingly.

Looks like you have a choice to make.
