Dreamer, we have never before been in this position so it matters not how long you've been vanning without incident.
Your arrogance and resolute belief in thinking you know better than the Government is astounding! The whole point of staying at home is to help ensure that life does go on. Have you not grasped that fact?

We have just had a few days on the Bridlington club site,we cycled up to bempton cliffs to see the ganets great to see them back again,we felt very safe at all times in our m/home and self isolating was not a problem .This weekend we are going to Chatsworth club site then onto Don Amotts for full service we will still be self isolating and we have spoken to the wardens and all is OK ,also requested engineers at Don Amotts will wear gloves ,after this we will clean the Motorhome surfaces .Cornwall is calling in April all being well? .
Pete. Stay safe

Agree, Brue, but trouble is, the government doesn’t have any shut down plans, only recommendations, which seem to change from day to day.
They are only recommending that people don’t travel, visit pubs, theatres etc. How many city centre pubs and clubs will be deserted next weekend?
But I won’t be travelling or pubbing / clubbing, definitely staying safe. 🙂

To that end, and in view of some attitudes displayed here, I have just emailed the club urging them to close club sites ASAP.

the government is saying "no non essential travel" if you consider roaming the country and possibly carrying this virus with you is essential travel then you must be living in cloud cuckoo land, as i have said previous, even if you use your own facilities you still have to empty that dreaded toilet casettte , and I hope you dont get involved in the crush to leave site when somebody takes sick
I also hope the club can bring some closure to all this lunacy by closing sites until all this is over, yes it could be 3 months as explained today but if that is what it takes then so bit it.0 -
Nope, Cornwall isn’t calling you. Be sensible.

Not defensive at all TW. I find that you are taking the offense which is common. I don't know if you have noticed but all the governments talk of travel over the past few weeks has been in connection with travel beyond the UK. No idea if that is what they meant on this occasion and no concern wither.
Internal vehicular travel presents no great threat to the country's health. Apply logic rather than rhetoric.

You need to get up to date, Easy.

We have had caravans and motor caravans, for many years more than many who post on here ,and have,been through numerouse major health problems in this country from major foot and mouth ( large restrictions on travel and the use of sites swine flue which also came with restrictions ,none that will compare to what is expected, with what is affecting many countries, and is getting worse by the day here,which this time really affects the human population,
And have to say , it seems by posts on here the attitude of some to their complete "in denial" attitude even after reports on here from those already in lockdown and sites closed,with the latest reports saying the EU are to stop any movement across borders for min of 30 days I agree that this club and hopefully the ccc will take notice and close sites as another helping method to restrict the spread of this virus

If it dismays you then don't repeat it. Yes it is possible that I could be in an accident. The same is possible on many occasions. I have not had an injury from a traffic accident in the last 50 years and hopefully my good fortune holds.

Whether it would put anybody at more risk by travelling in the UK depends chiefly on what one does in other parts of the country. We have cancelled a restaurant booking for Wednesday and also a meal out with former colleague next week because there is a discernible risk. Driving is not

Hi EasyT, but it is non essential travel isn't it ? A holiday isn't essential is it ? Cheers, Alex.

I see it is advice that we are offered and not an edict. No dread of emptying the cassette and not likely to be shaking hands with anybody whilst so doing. Do you have many conversations at the CCP?
If I was to be made aware of somebody on a site having the virus why would I wish to stampede off?

For many years I have been working with fire safety legislation. In that context easy t would be the ‘responsible person’ and it would be for him to determine what was reasonable in the circumstances.
In simple terms its stated that the ‘risk creator’ is responsible for controlling the risk.
There is statutory guidance that makes recommendations but that’s a long way from the previous prescriptive regime were some things were quite clearly, ‘you will’.
HMG will not, unless unavoidable, go down the ‘you will’ route which means that people are free to follow the advice and requests in full or, as appears the case, exercise their right to ‘control the risk’.
I presume that if this approach will only change if appears to not be working.

Evening
I've enjoyed giving my input on here regarding this serious subject and tried to reflect what it's like being under martial law. But, due to some posters head in the sand attitude to their fellow countrymen which I honestly find alarming, I'm afraid that's my lot.
Stay safe people

I think that the government should have been more directive. A 'request' allows organisations to refuse to allow refunds and for insurance companies to refuse to pay out when people cancel, as the cancellations may be seen as voluntary. Thoughts anyone?

JK, you are not a lone voice. Don’t let the ostriches drive you out.

Yes, BE, just got to your bookings page and cancel the bookings. Or of course you could contact HO or the site direct by phone and cancel. You are well within the "slap wrist" time limit of 72 hrs.

As If! Been on here since CT started and seen it all TW, but have to officially bite ones tongue nowadays

Me, too, since the beginning. Our positions are somewhat different though. All I'm likely to lose is forward bookings which is a joke this year😂😂

I’d probably get banned for life if I put thoughts into type😁 So I am being (mostly) a good girl tonight.
