As I say the crowds were not as bad in Bournemouth as the papers made out. They were cleared VERY quickly those that arose. As I say we have not hotels open no restaurants that video of bournemouth looks about as busy as the beach i got back from in North carolina. except hotels and resturants were fully open in NC. as i said not trying to be rude to you or others, but it seems some are resisting that people are gathering to these places. 1 minute ago, bmwman said: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now on masks we agree!! However we now have all public transport compulsory masks and we expect it to be extended to shops. If you get on without one you will are subject to being removed and fined 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point is that YOU are willing to cruise under any conditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why the videos of the same beaches show the same crowds and the official Bournemouth Instagram posted it while begging people to stay away. 😉 The fact is that there are ignorant people everywhere, the world over. Not sure why you're so insistent on claiming there aren't. Except that you clearly want to stick with your negative position on Americans while ignoring the rudeness and ignorance in your own yard. 🙄 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but its all over now - No hotels or restaurants and parking restrictions around the town with beaches closed mean that this will not happen again.

bmwman Posted June 11, 2020 #117 Share Posted June 11, 2020 The air quarantine is indefinite so no date. This means even with our long vacations no one will travel as you are quarantined on return for two weeks. this includes brits. We know that no cruises il be allowed into UK ports as no one can get on or off. Gyms closed Indefinably and only guesses for Restaurants and hotels. Best guess is July but then only 10% occupancy. Offices are not open Driving tests supended indefiantly Holiday flights pushed back again HMRC - no enquiry work at all - just starting but hit and miss Ferries -masks compulsory Trains pre book only Any thing I have missed let me know?

Political I suspect - there has been a lot of bad press about letting in people without testing. As to restaurants and the Great British Pub its the crowds and awe do not have a pavement culture so most restaurants inside. Also the government propping up works and business meant they simply keep this going longer. We are also a very crowded Island and easing of the lockdown has in some areas already seen our R rate increase. Also we have had fear here with the way the death toll is reported - We may well have staff who REFUSE to travel ro come back even after the lockdown eases So even if the cruise industry does open Brits will not be travelling this summer. I may well travel but on return two weeks at HOME with spot checks from Border Force.!! Look whatever our difference of opinion is on the start date I hope you get you August 2020 cruise but do you really still feel its going to happen?

A pleasure on the UK. You know we actually agree on a lot especially NCL throwing in the towel. You know once you said its got to end sometime - here we feel its gone on too long and we simply need to get going but we can not. If I want to get on a train to say Manchester (250 miles) I have to book in advance and wear a mask for 5 hours even on an empty 1st class car. Trains are 10% max capacity. No way I may have to convert to Europen river cruise - ANYTHING!! 🙂 "The rain has to stop sometime" Edited June 12, 2020 by bmwman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
