On our last cruiser boat a widebeam I had doors fabricated and welded in place either side. They looked the part and stopped the dog getting off as thats why we had them put on. We have nine grandkids aged between 29 and 6 and find the younger ones have more sense lol. In fairness we always kept em inside the boat sat in fron well deck when underway with constant supervision.

Yeah and it does seem a stupid rule allowing people to go to their boats but then have to travel home again. However we are doing stuff as we should. The mrs is driving two hours to one of our kids to see her tomorrow with the grandkids but she is driving home again in the evening.

No, not open yet. Hoped to be 4th july at the present time. We taxed it today and took it for a spin as its been stood months. Done some bookings for July but hoping camp sites are opened earlier. Its very easy to keep well away from anyone in a motorhome so couldnt be any safer. Its different in England as wild camping is not allowed apart from dartmoor so everybody is waiting for legitimate camp sites opening. I am sure the odd numpty will be taking the mick but no sites are open yet.

The beauty of the motorhome is like a boat. everything on board so no sharing ?

I think you need to move. Marinas differ greatly in all manner of things. the beauty of the boat is it moves very easily ?

Yep lol. I have some great dwarf beans, tomatoes and other bits coming on well at my mooring. I just lean into the canal to fill the watering can so not too onerous. Soon as we are able though we are of int motorhome and I will mourn the loss of my beans etc ?

All UK holidays will rocket this summer if we are not in lockdown. Unfortunately for those of us who have known it for years many people are going to holiday in the UK and find out how fab it is ? and many will continue into the future here. Lots of campsites for instance are already very booked.

On the other hand we will not be giving their failing economy more and more billions whilst not even a member. Not for long if Italy is anything to go by. The government cannot tell some people the truth, people like yourself simply cannot handle it so are told bits to placate you whilst reality continues.

Nevertheless we absolutely must have an economy or we will have no NHS not even a stressed out one. There are only so many billions to be had to keep people at home.

I think some on here want lock down for months more. Those same people woul then moan as we would no longer have an NHS or indeed anything else.

Nobody lives there. Hardly anybody lives there either.

This is actualy probably how it will pan out. Even though the restrictions are lifting I am not forced to do anything any different, many of us who are retired are in that position. Dont have to go and mix and if you stay at home there is little chance of catching covid. We are still only doing safe shopping and going nowhere near any beaches or tourist spots and we will not be for many weeks. I accept working people have less options but they still dont have to join the muppets on a beach in the sun.
