DonPeffers Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 The rush for MOTs at the end of September will be manic. Also can you drive The Wench under latest rules/law? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive used mine for shopping runs and to pick a chemist prescription up today. Just be sensible though, defensive driving to the max, as some people are really driving round in a daze at the moment, and just watch how you could be perceived when in built up areas etc around others.

DonPeffers Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 After 24 April even if no new MOT required because of 6 month hold, looks like leisure driving banned unfortunately under the new legislation going thru Commons now. Also, as has been mentioned in the unlikely event of an accident the hospitals are already overstretched which is why things are going on hold. And just when petrol is cheap.

Captain Colonial Posted March 25, 2020 Author Share Posted March 25, 2020 As I’m under medical house arrest and condemned to do the gardening for Lady Colonial until 15th June, it’s not a problem for me at the moment. I’ll have to be content with receiving daily afternoon texts of doom and gloom from the NHS for my entertainment. Today’s was telling me to get a bag ready just in case you need to be whipped into hospital “for an overnight stay”... yeah, right. Overnight... Nothing will cheer me up more than a hospital bag in the corner by the door. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man On The Clapham Omnibus Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 Like Scott's Good Lady, mine is in the 'extremely vulnerable' group due to ongoing medication. I am also officially 'vulnerable' (not 'extremely' though) because of my great age so for the first time I am ordered by HMG to be idle! It's great!
