Corona - Holiday Lets

[George from SJM Planning]

I went and volunteered to deliver for the local chippy last night and they said there was still a lot of holiday makers around and it is worrying them. Normally businesses around here can't wait for the holiday makers to arrive but this year is very different.

He could have said what he needed to say in 10 words but I agree.

I can get it down to 4 words -
F*** O** English C****

There is only one day of the year for abusing the English and that is match day.

The stuff and attitude Ive seen on FB is hideous. So hostile. Theres a way to say things and a way to not say things.

No , they don’t make enough to have loans.

Don't worry, once the situation improves and restrictions lifted folk will be looking to get away and I think most will opt to stay in the UK in case it kicks off again.

I’m not worried, I worry about the ones that listens to the hype about holl let’s and have got the banks rope around their neck . A lot of talk when this is over this ain’t going to end anytime soon coronavirus will e with us for years .

Yes, they are talking about lifting and reimposing the restrictions for a year or so. Everyone pulling together for a month or two is one thing but as time goes on the compliance will get worse and if the state aid is in place, it will place huge strain on national finance.

Well it doesn't seem that the polite message is getting through. How do you suggest that the "only travel if necessary" message should be delivered?

With consistency but politely. It will sink in then. Dont get sucked into the hysteria

How much more of a polite consistent message do they need?
Every news outlet from newspapers, TV, websites, social media are all delivering the same (polite) consistent message. How much more time do they need for it to 'sink in'?

By someone holding a gun?

 

[Steevo]

Caravan Club have just advised all their sites are shutting now - probably as a result of the influx of foreigners in their caravans/motorhomes migrating over the past few days.

All 5 van sites must now do likewise.

I wouldn't be surprised if the govt forced all private campsites to do likewise too.

Looks like the caravanners will all be forced to go back home now.

 

[Hilly]

Hell of a lot , too many not taking this seriously enough, people are very silly this now has potential to be a lot worse than it could have been before this weekend.

Most of our bookings are taking up the offer to roll their booking over till later in the year.

We are fully booked from now till October & it will be a fair hit on cashflow but it’s just the way it is and we will cut our cloth accordingly.

 

[defender]

We are cancelling all bookings for next 3 months and onwards on a rolling monthly basis , refunds will be given. The biggest fear is what happens if a holidaymaker develops the virus when here or even thinks they have signs as they could not be moved and potential risk to cleaner etc
Don't know if it is worth considering a 3 month let as £1.5 k /week is tempting
