Smiley Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 There won’t be any travel for 6 months at the earliest. I’d be writing off 2020 for sure. They cannot guarantee safety on planes. Hotels. Airports. Some countries might open their borders. Some may not. Plus between now and then airlines, airports, hotels and anything associated with travel is still in a very precarious position financially and might not exist in a few months.

Did you see all the Brits in Benidorm a few weeks ago? We have enough gormless, Costa-obsessed pisscans with high blood pressure to assure you that a Pandemic won’t stop them having their 1 euro pint and full English as soon as the airports open. Spain would literally have to collapse into the sea to prevent these mongotroids going over there and dreaming of home and spitfires and Bobby Charlton and Mother England.

As it stands, Corfu is a better place to be than here Last time I asked, they'd had one case He had flown in from, I think, Germany Thing is, he had isolated from landing So, if they expect visitors to do that, it's not happening, is it As an aside, they then got him off the island to a hospital with running water and electrickery.

ErnestTurnip Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Been a while but does Barmouth beach have all the jelly fish like Harlech does ? Stayed in the same place a couple of times up the road in Llanbedr and used to be my fave until starting to go to South Wales. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Casino Posted April 23, 2020 Moderators Share Posted April 23, 2020 Yes to jellies if its rough Our dog has to sniff every one Only bad thing about the beach and even then, theres the central beach which the tide doesnt cover We use the dog beach, to the north Few pubs, a couple of restaurants, chippies My location of choice in the uk, as its just far enough that the mutt will put up with it and even then we stop at some mobbed farm shop half way there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ErnestTurnip Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 My mrs would go back to where we stayed in Llanbedr tomorrow, lodges with nothing on site, pub, chippy, shop near, loads of places close to go for a short drive and mooch. There's a place where we've been a few times in south wales that is better though, nothing on site, 10 mins walk to pub and beach, 20 mins walk to busier place and chippies etc. Love it down there.

Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted April 23, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted April 23, 2020 Assuming we can travel, we’re having a few days in Dorset at the end of August.

Guest Nordkurve Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 On 22/04/2020 at 19:19, Spider said: Filtered air on planes is the best air you can breathe I think Nordcurv mentioned it recently? The HEPA Filters on Aircraft are very good. There is a problem though. The Air circulates through the Cabin. If someone sat in Seat 1A coughs, that cough is going to go through most of the Cabin before it is filtered. The Air will come back cleaned, but there is a good chance of you breathing in particles from that cough. It is a little more complicated than that as the way the Air circulates varies on different Aircraft types, so a lot depends on exactly where you are sat with regard to the person who might have Coughed. In general though, Social distancing on an Aircraft is a complete waste of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
