Covid Madness -

If anyone does venture to Whitby and heads up to the Abbey, i found a good micro brewery up there. Worth a visit if its open.

I had 5 nights at Broadings Farm on thy northern edge of Whitby in mid July. The town was rammed with idiots then, many of whom were seriously obese and prime candidates for a terminal experience of Covid. We went into town one day but beat a hasty retreat. It was quieter the following day when we went to the Abbey. Perhaps the grey blustery weather helped.

Given the way things are "oop norf", I would give it a wide berth. Currently just outside Chelmsford checking whether the only way really is Essex.

Simple solution R&R - if this picture is putting you off "...stupidity...", "...worrying...",  "...irresponsible...", "...idiots..." - just don't go.

Is your trip essential, is your holiday essential?

I think the ‘op norf’ that is bad is Lancashire/Gtr Manchester areaM back into restrictive movement.

Towie - good choice CY, but watch out for the beaches around S.O.S and Leigh on Sea. I understand that you could get stuck in the mud if going there with your bucket and spade.

There is a very easy answer to this, stay at home for this year and think about going away next year and if we all did this Covid might calm down and we can get back to some kind of normality.

Further to the beginning of this thread.  This is Whitby beach from West Cliff today, ok a bit dull and chilly, but the surfers were out.  The town, in comparison was pretty busy so we drove through.  West Cliff was fine and we had a little walk around. 

Not quite North really😂 Northumberland, Durham, Cumbria are “North”. I have relatives that think anything above Watford is North......🤣

Bugsy used to scoff at me being a Southron👍🏻😊

Most sites that we have been on have felt safe. Advice to use your own facilities rather than toilet blocks means that you do not get into contact with others or areas that you would want to avoid. Most sites provide sanitisers near bins, taps & toilet emptying points. So, if you don’t use the toilet blocks..........
