    I can't see it will mean anything. Pitches are pretty much taken by home users for the near future and speaking from MH relatives over-there there a reluctance to travel outside their own country 'just in case' and never mind to all the way here.

    They are just as keen for a hot sunny holiday and, rightly or wrongly, they think they won't get that here.

    I cann't see it meaning much either even though Scotland is a destination of choice for many Continentals touring the UK. In any case Scotland is much better prepared for an influx of LV this year than last.

    Scotland can barely cope with some of the behaviours of the stay at home campers this year Peedee. I was saddened to read of the damage to some areas that would also attract foreign visitors.

    Given that nowhere near as many over there have been double jabbed. In the immediate future I would not think it will make a lot of difference tourism wise. The main advantage is that expats jabbed in Europe will be able to visit family in the UK if they wish.

    Why would "our EU friends" (as BoJo continues to refer to them so hypocritically) want to come over here to use our sub standard,  expensive, over crowded sites, having to book specific dates in advance when,  apparently, they have "nirvana" on their doorstep? undecided

    Yes and Spain stand a very good chance of going on the naughty step in the next week, which will mean anybody arriving from Spain will have to SI for 10 days double vaxed or not undecided

    I didn’t recognise Bourton on the Water today, not a single Japanese tourist anywhere. Never seen it like this before. Not a single coach in big car park either.....

    Every cloud….

    Personally I’m fed up with having to book or queue to eat in a pub. Long queues for grossly overpriced mediocre fish & chips (£11.50) in Torcross today. Venues full of hooray henry types from Fulham & Kensington.

    Well you'll look forward to visiting the pubs "over there" then,  Bill. No booking or queueing and definitely not overpriced ......

    ......oh, hang on, that's the sites, not the pubs (although I dare say. ...) laughing

    There are many pictures in Japan and china I would think.  of our first rescue border collie who would just love to jump into the river windrush   and pick up large stones from the river bed and drop them on the bank then jump in and fetch them until we told him we were going normally after we had finished our fish and chipscool

    So why did you queue and buy some if you thought it overpriced?

    You obviously don’t look at what you’re shoving in your mouth - you should be careful with that.

    He means how did you know they were mediocre if you didn’t actually eat them. It’s similar to the confusion earlier with your wife’s car situation. A slip of the mind Mayhap, stress related or something else🤷🏻‍♂️. Anyway-happy to help👍🏻

    No I can assure you I do Bill, and I've often found that the most bland looking food can be very tasty indeed, and the other way round too. I just let taste decide what is tasty and what isn't and not my eyes.

    I wonder if they will get enough takers, if they fill them as they did before. Personally I wouldn’t have wanted to go on one before covid. The thought of doing so currently fills me with horror.
