    In theory no, the should accept you if your live within their catchment area as per NARGC guidelines. In practice, yes they can be closed shops. I am not saying they all are but don't be surprised if you are met with responses such as "Were full" and "We don't know you or our family!", or "you have not lived in the area long enough".
    The only way to find out is to ask.

    Another one SMERSH! I'll have to get the finger out and put pen to paper!

    COOLAGAD: PM me if you are interested in trying to form a club with myself and a few of the other lads on this.
