I too applaud the volunteers of all the organisations who protect our heritage, NT, CADW, EH, HS and the many small groups up and down the country who all give of their time. No inverted snobbery meant - just an observation. :)
Sorry Carl, any didn't mean to imply any 'inverted snobbery' on your behalf (it is so easy to come across the wrong way here). I was just thinking of my own prejudices against the NT in the past. As it happens I had been given NT membership as a present so have visited more places I wouldn't normally go because of the prohibitive entrance fee to non-members. I always feel like a bit of a fraud though (a poor person impersonating someone else).
