I'm a newbie and always will be. You never know it all.
I would have been meandering down the N340 in time to pick up my wife on the 27th for her 3 week holiday.

Instead I'm holed up on the car park at the side of my house for a fortnight......actually its not a great deal different to what I would have been doing had I still been in Spain, just without the Sun, Sea and Sand and of course the cheap wine? :drinks::wub::drink:

Well, the big start to our season of fun is here.....not :(

I was due to go to the C&CC Folk section meet at Evesham where campers from all over the country would have congregated to make merry.

There were to have been so many singing, dance, musical instrument and craft workshops over 5 days that I struggled to choose.

Oh well, there's always next year to look forward to....

Where were other Funsters planning on going?
I feel for you as I know how important music is to some folk.
All the local sessions have been cancelled, weekly ceilidh band practice cancelled, and moving forward the Feis at Ullapool cancelled along with other folk festivals and music weekend workshops. When we get through this, which we will, then there is going to be some some great sessions and any coming up festivals that have survived will be just a great celebration of music, roll on on those days.
I really feel sorry for a lot of professional folk musicians who don't much much money to start with but have basically lost all there income. I have posted this link before but just shows how much the Scottish musicians are supporting each other and continuing to play music.

We would have been driving up to Fishguard today to catch the ferry tomorrow to Ireland. As singers we this last year and made lots of singing friends around Cork. Had lots of sessions fixed up - ah well- we'll just have to learn some more songs and drink Guinness at home!

I would have been at a Heelwork to Music workshop and practicing for a Heelwork to Music competition I had booked for on April 19th, on Saturday, and a Rally Obedience trial on Sunday (involves mostly sitting about drinking tea and chatting between rounds!) Meanwhile we are getting on fairly well with the van conversion there being nothing else to do, so when we're cleared to go we might actually have a mobile home to go somewhere in. Don't much care where! I love where I live but it does feel a bit like Groundhog day at the moment.

We should be on our 30 day trip just now and today we had planned on visiting the Blue Mountains in Australia, as its Lorraine's birthday tomorrow we had booked a Lodge up there for a couple of nights. On Monday which is our 30th anniversary we had booked to walk the Sydney Harbour Bridge, now we're stuck in Dumfries and will end up divorced before Monday :rofl: :rofl: Especially if she doesn't like the new Hovver I've bought her :rofl::rofl:

We would have been collecting grandchildren in MHome, as son was going to Spain and then we were taking them to Lakeside Park near Louth for Easter. Ahh well we will just have to have Easter in MHome on our drive and dream about what we could have done. We now have plenty of Easter eggs to eat between us. May living the dream be with you.

This weekend I would have taken the opportunity to start getting the MH ready for a weeks tour of Kent to ensure all will be hunky dory for our 6 week tour to Europe in May. Fortunately I haven’t booked a tunnel crossing or even planned a route once there so I still something to look forward to later in the year, even if means taking an extra pullover.

Should have been walking the first day of the Dalesway on Saturday with my brother and nephew. I would then have caught the bus home and met them again on Monday at Ribblehead in the motorhome. We were going to stay at the Station inn. I was going to walk up Pen y Ghent on the way there. Then a walk up whernside on Tuesday.
Never mind the hills will be there when we have dealt with this virus and we will do it then.
