NO TRIPS TO EUROPE THIS YEAR?

[colyboy]

By the sounds of it , it seems with a possible third variant of Covid in Europe we will not be able to travel there. Now the problem is that there will be too many Motorhomes and Caravans on the road and not enough sites to take them all.

I think the best way is to join any rally's or meets and don't forget a lot of us on here have a reasonable amount of knowledge to ask / find a way of useing our vans a lot don't have access to the information we can share on Motorhome Fun and they're more likely to be on the camp site's, we will be giving Camp Site's a miss this year.

I watched the news tonight and it did suggest traveling abroad is unlikely. It’s very sad for lots of funsters who I know are chomping at the bit to get into France,Spain and beyond .

Blimey...... its not nice for the country..... however, we do have to be grateful to Boris, who. paid millions to Oxford to ensure that the virus would be non profitable and that the U.K. would have preference IF proved positive......... unfortunately our past friends appear to try and take us to task on all angles.............. roll on other E.U. countries who are gagging to get out.

So did I and obviously we heard different words. I heard we are unlikely to go this summer. That quite a lot different than unlikely this year. I’m looking at autumn for visiting France .

No plans, no bookings, no stress.
When and if we want to leave our post code (when allowed to) we will phone around in the general area we will head, if there is a pitch on a site great, if no so be it.

Take a look at all the threads in April and May last year.
Even Macron said he wouldnt be opening til October.
He opened less than 2 months after saying it on June 15th.
We hadnt even locked down yet last year.

It may be true, but there is shed loads of time for this thing to decrease significantly and people have been known to change their minds. Fluid situation I would suggest

Isn't that what politicians are meant to do? Like electricians sorting out electric stuff, plumbers sorting out...

What is a THS? Where can you find out info about them and where they are? Sorry if I appear to be a bit thick, but I’ve never heard of it

If your a C&CC member you can go on their website and look up out and about
Input an area and dates where you want to go and see what THS (Temporary Holiday Sites ) are running

They are Temporary holiday sites, run by Camping and caravan club.
quite often they use school playing field or football fields and they list them in their club magazines

Yes, and do you know how difficult it is, a to find one, b to get them to turn up, c to get them to do a professional job ?

I know this will create antagonism, but I didn't start the politics on this thread, the above post did. We shouldn't be "grateful" to Johnson for anything.
If Johnson & co had followed the advice from SAGE earlier, and not been so desperate to lift the lockdown(s) too early, we'd have been in a far better position, and tens of thousands of deaths would have been avoided. And as for Sunak and his "Eat out to Help Out the Virus" brainwave!

I second that , give it time,

Temporary holiday sites in the UK, for members, both the CCC and CAMC have them. CCC - it used to be a just turn up to a ths, most weren’t bookable, however, this year if you find one that you want to attend you have to book. CAMC are only bookable. They are a great way of holidaying. Some have leccy, most don’t.
beaten to it!

At the risk of introducing a bit of thread-drift I've just booked at C&CC site online and it was painless - the website just worked. I'm guessing they've overhauled it as it used to very difficult to book with them online.

 

[dosser]

Still hopeful, booked the tunnel for 1st August need something to look forward too. If it doesn't happen I'll move it further ahead. Glass half full guys . In the meantime we will get out and about here. First trip Aberfoyle end of April not quite how we imagined our 30th anniversary but will make the most of it..
Stay safe all..

Same here hope to get away mid September.

Selfish lot you Funster people....we are stuck here in Europe trying to get out to see our friends and family in the UK.... don't suppose anyone thought of us....yet another year of blue skies, cheap wine and Paella....and we ain't had any holes in upper arms yet....

 

[AJM2]

All bookings rolled over from last year for start of school holidays. Personally I think we’ll be going. If it’s too risky I won’t need a politician to tell me not to go, didn’t last year. We’ll see.
