Dear Digby,
re: MESSAGE FROM THE DIGBY SOCIETY
Tired of being a member of a society and not being able to remember
everyone's name? Well that's one small benefit of being a member of
the Digby Society. If you can recall your own name, then you should
be able to remember all the members' names. Great news, huh?
Join the Digby Society. Become one of the elite. Meet interesting
people called Digby. Receive incredible discounts when you do
business with other members. Visit your friend Digby in some exotic
location. Get smart, Digby, it's time to connect with your namesakes.
You could even find out what the name Digby means.
Membership applications are now being processed. Membership is
currently FREE, thanks to a generous donation from our sponsor, the
famous Digby.

three categories of membership:
Knight of the First Order: Member's whose first name is Digby

(Please note that the motion proposed at the last AGM that we include
a membership category for people whose pet dog is called Digby was
DEFEATED. This is issue is closed for debate!)

fun and die happy.
Members are obliged to:
1. Uphold the principles of the Digby Society: to get rich, to have
fun and die happy.

deal. Generous means at least 10% discount.

common sense, the law and good old generosity.

your address changes.

from you.
