The place we last stayed in had a decent sized car park and not too pricey. Will find details...

I stayed at I think, a Premier Inn in Dunfermline with @Michael Whitworth one year. All I can say is it was OK, we survived, and the cars were still there in the morning.

Absolutely.

 

This has been one of the really hard parts, as a club, just trying to offer some advice/guidance to AO's etc, when the Governments own policies are so contradictory! There are events about to start up, that are being run quite legitimately, yet to get their is at odds, at the moment, with travel advice, go figure!

 

That said, the Knockhill dates in this thread, are currently all, according to the government roadmap, safe for travel/free movement, and after hotels/B&B's are allowed to reopen for non-business/emergency purposes type guests. (Of course, that doesn't unfortunately mean that all will necessarily be open. But, that will have been their decision, by then.

From the Sage website:

 

Travel

The ‘stay at home’ rule will end on 29 March but many restrictions will remain in place. People should continue to work from home where they can and minimise the number of journeys they make where possible, avoiding travel at the busiest times and routes.

 

I reckon we'll be fine by May 24th.

But that is all advisory (or guidance) it is not law. In law you can travel wherever you want - not advocating it, just pointing out the actual facts.

100%. As I was doing last year doing Lockdown 1, the LAW is actually quite different from the "guidelines" spouted from the daily presser.

Covid 19 LAW was amended during August last year (if memory serves me correctly) but there is little change to peoples actual liberty. The "problem" is two-fold. 

1. Too many people believe what they read on Facebook as fact just becasue it has 50 likes and 200 reposts... and

2. The vast majority of people watching a Government spokesperson or the PM pontificating on the telly *assume* what they say is law. And as we all know assumption is the mother of all f**k ups...

 

The facts, from the Government - 

 

How the rules will change on 29 March

Some of the rules on what you can and cannot do will change on 29 March. You can read the ‘COVID-19 Response - Spring 2021’ for more information on the roadmap out of lockdown in England.

From 29 March:

you will be able to meet outdoors either in a group of 6 (from any number of households), or in a group of any size from up to 2 households (each household can include existing support bubbles, if eligible)

you will be able to take part in formally organised outdoor sports with any number of people (outdoor sports venues and facilities will be able to reopen)

childcare and supervised activities will be allowed outdoors for all children

formally organised parent and child groups will be able to take place outdoors for up to 15 attendees. Children under 5 will not be not counted in this number

The guidelines are slightly different in Scotland. From 2nd April, it'll change from 'Stay At Home' to 'Stay Local' advising people, amongst other things, to not travel more than 5 miles from your home unless on an essential journey. This will remain in place for "no more than 3 weeks", taking up to about the 26th April in line with the rest of the UK. This is because, I believe, that throughout the pandemic, Scotland's numbers have been slightly behind that of England so any new advice has come about the same way. It is likely that Scotland won't go 'free-for-all' but will re-enter a tier system.

Ok. We are talking about 24th of MAY where all this nonsense is meant to be over.

 

Rant on:

 

Can we all go to discuss covid regulations elsewhere where someone cares and leave the people that has booked a trackday following the bl**** f***** covid guidelines alone?

 

Rant over. Now:
