Britops is of course correct on the gaming rules element. A form of lottery licence is needed if it is restricted to Gold Members only, and we cannot afford that i'm afraid!!
The recorded delivery element (as i stated in an email to Kirbs) is to avoid any confusion as to whether the person was in the draw for that month. Recorded delivery is unquestionable proof that the sender will be entered for that month, and i will accept no less for that person.
We entered a total of four people in last months draw via postal entry, so there are actually people taking advantage of this. However, as Peter says - if you did it every month, it would work out almost the same as joining as a Gold Member (where you get automatic entry).
However, we are all individuals and have individual circumstances, and not everyone can manage to find £2.50 a month.
