No travel restrictions back then,,Cornwall was rammed according to my sister in law,,we were on a 125 pitch site in France with 3 German vans and a 350 pitch site in Spain with about 40 other vans..Sister in law could not even park in Newquay it was that busy..BUSBY,,Alias JACK
You callin' me a ballet dancer then?Why when it keeps you on your toes,
Robert is still outside making man impact drill noises, do you think I should send the dogs out to save him?
I struggle to balance on me feet!
You would out of luck there, neither of us drink it and besides you would be driving.
If we had the space we would happily let funsters park up for the night, but sadly we don't.
They don't turn into UK bashing ones, just tell the truth as most know it but many don't wish to admit, they would rather bash the EU and usually the French with their bigoted points of view.
We spent all of October last year 'doing' the NC500, followed by a dash through the Central Belt, pretty much without stopping anywhere as the local rules then were such that we felt we oughtn't hang around, and then the SWC300, before heading home. We were blown away!!Which bits have you seen so far?
If you pull up outside our place we will make you a cuppa.
Based on English rules though. Tell them in advance so everyone can leave prior to the introduction-
it always was & having looked from the outside now for the past 19 years it has becoe horrendously expensive for many run of the mill things.
It was too crowded in London & the soutrh -east when we moved to Devon in'84 .then that became as busy as what we had left by the late 90's.
No it is far worse than that.
You must go somewhere different to everyone else as everything has been open since last september here? Bars & restaurants have suffered restrictions but have remained open for takeaways. even when no seating in or out allowed the populous just sit on the floor, wall etc.
Don't remember it being like that last Sept Oct in France or Spain,,BUSBY
They’re sulking. Their bottom lips are sticking out,and their “armholes“are pouting. Pathetic.
More truth to that than anyone wants to admit..... sadly
I love France (especially when travelling in our moho) and to a point the French too, I loathe the EU and all that it stands for, there is a difference you know.
I fear you may be correct!Unfortunately I can see the NC500 AND Cornwall like this most of the summer...
I think when we are allowed out it will be utter chaos, my idea of hellReckon UK will be very busy as everyone is desperate for a holiday. BUSBY.
We do plug our area on here, but it really is missed by may who come to Scotland and it is beautiful.
Nope!
Or vice-versa. No one is afraid to go to France. People are afraid of Covid. The situation in France and indeed it's near neighbours is getting out of hand with a third wave looking increasingly likely.
But no one is left in Paris ! All who can have left . Idiots . Let’s spread the virus a bit more
. Our last trip in Europe (2019) included Greece, Bulgaria & Romania. As for being "afraid to go to France" We tend to stay away preferring to take the the path less travelled!
Yeah I know ! I've seen the problem on the news...Planes trains towards south completly over booked!
I actually like the UK, quite a lot. If we had reliable weather here, I wouldn't bother with all the hassle of driving to Europe. We do enjoy Spain and further south in France, as it's nice to wake up every morning knowing the sun will be shining.
I for one love france, and indeed most european countries, if possible we will go to europe this year, regardless of anyone's opinion.
I'd put a mirror on your statement in that people are just thinking up excuses to go to France despite the fact that deep down they really know that its wrong & dangerous not to mention selfish.
Nothing quite like a reasoned point of view full of rhetoric to try to change someone's mind.I'm going to be painfully blunt here.
If you decide to go over the channel this year, you should be forced to stay there.
I know thats a blanket statement that will make some folks angry, but its wholly stupid to move around anywhere in Europe then drag their filth back here & it is irresponsible to assume otherwise.
They've spat the dummy at us & used every excuse in the book & a few that aren't even in the book to discredit the UK & the result? Another French lockdown, with Germany likely to follow.
I totally understand that people adore many European countries & that includes myself, but wild horses couldn't drag me over there just now.
They've lost their cashcow....err sorry, they've lost the UK & lost their whipping boy, so hell mend them.
Have the sense to vote with your feet for another year, stay in the UK, you never know, you might discover that you like it, then when the dust settles, have a winter break in the sun somewhere.
Yes this is a "Fire In the Hole" statement, but please examine your reasons before travelling.
Hang in there xx It seems gendarmes are on alert for maison secondaires which are inhabited and have the right to fine and send home if they are from one of the 16 departments . They do pass our house every night between 11.15 and 11.45 so no doubt will see if anyone has arrived at the gîte next door .
Can't agree more!
Just heard that a 4 week full lockdown has been reintroduced in 15 regions of France and Macron, who previously said the AZ wasn't effective on over 65's now says it will be given only to over 55's. What a muddle!
Germany has cases increasing 'exponentially' and has threatened that if the EU doesn't get its finger out they will order the Russian vaccine themselves. I have an image of a sulky EU procurement bureaucrat signing the Russian order with a peg on his/her nose

Agree. Sadly, I’m not much of an Anglophile
