North Wales Run, Sunday 05.04.20 - REF : CORONA VIRUS - PLEASE CHECK YOUR E-MAIL (not your PMs)

Top marks for Premier Inn they posted that they would refund and fair enough I had my booking costs paid back the following day, that's even though I paid the lower rate. :thumbsup:

I have had to cancel my March Scottish meet,as Lunch venue is now closed,as are they all.
Did think about sandwiches/picnic,but since it was only a handful of us,and most had decided to follow official advice and not travel/socialise unless vital,then made sense.
Hopefully they get control of this soon,and people stop dying.
Stay safe ,and hope to see you in the not too distant future mate :thumbsup:
Hi Craig
Think we may be looking down the barrel of a gun now with this one. Suck it and see this week and then I'll make a decision :(

I've just been looking at todays news online and talked this through with my co-conspirator Jay, and we have decided the only sensible thing to do under the circumstances is to cancel this run for this year.
Apologies to everyone that has shown an interest in coming along, and have gone to the trouble to make arrangements and booked hotels etc. I'm sure you will agree that a drive in the Welsh countryside is of no consequence in the grand scheme of things.
Hopefully we can have this run again sometime in 2021.
Regards, Si

It is the only sensible outcome. Each town and village has elderly and vulnerable people who they are trying their upmost to protect. To go ahead with a gathering of circa 50 people is just irresponsible and selfish. Hopefully we will all get through the current situation and then get back zedding. Stay safe everyone :thumbsup:

Thanks for all the efforts you’ve made Si and I hope there are only a few dates etc for you to change for the following year and just hope we are all here to see it..

I have to admit to being sincerely worried about the situation at this time but we all have to try and remain positive.

In a moment of pre lunch / lockdown boredom I watched Bargain Hunt - Ironically it was from Oswestry!
Tomorrow we were all set to drive there in preparation for Sunday’s run - thanks to the Chinese bat eaters that’s not happening now.

Yep - we also missed No1 Granddaughters 5th birthday - it’s tough when she is on FaceTime and she says “ miss you Grandpop”. Soddin bat eaters! They’ve a lot to answer for.
Maybe they had a plan?

I know the feeling - missed Mother's Day, my sister's birthday on the 1st, my Mother's 98th birthday on the 2nd and she will miss her great-granddaughter's 4th on the 7th.

I was never a Chinese fan anyway - much prefer a curry!

We all have a lot of catching up to do one day.
Coupes because stunning!
Current - Silver Grey MC, Imola Red heated Nappa & carbon trim. Aeros, H & R Coil-overs, 224s, OE Strut brace, Nav, cup-holders, DSP Hi-Fi, pdc, cruise, MFSW, no CDV! E90 330i daily
Gone - Montego Blue
Gone - Ruby Black
