Thanks for the swift response James,

I'm still game, but I will be lip reading anyway as the fire brigade are no longer allowed to hose ears out! Bonus is I won't have to wash as we're not allowed to get too close..

Was hoping to pay the hotel with cash, but that could be difficult if they want it up front.. It's normally pay on checkout?

Well, if Grumpy is wearing a mask all weekend I'm up for it, subject to Monday's announcement not springing something unexpected on us all. Can't wait to see Mr Gazza lip reading thru all those masks.

Hi Mike
Yes I would still be ok to come even with the measures you've outlined in place. As you say we've been putting up with restrictions now for so long & getting by as best we can, so let's go for it & have a great time.

…fingers crossed Dave, this weekender must have the record for the least number of forum posts in advance of an event ever!….there is a reason, I am more nervous than a jogger in a minefield

Me & Jane will be there, Mike. Let me have the post code for the Golborne collection when you get a minute

Stinger101 · 14-06-2021, 03:57 PM

Tracey & I are still intending to join in if the current regs aren't tightened. Extended, we can deal with!

14-06-2021, 05:16 PM

Great stuff Mark, I am sure we will make the best of it. I cant bear to watch the announcement at six oclock !!

OK so in anticipation of the restrictions staying in place, this is what it will mean for us, hot off the press from Donna,

If restrictions don’t fully lift how will this affect the Ducati Weekender…

• Masks will still need to be worn in the hotel, other than when sat down to eat
• All socialising in the larger group will need to be outside
• All food and drink are table service only both inside and outside, so no buffets or going to the bar and all meals other than breakfast will be served outside – unless seated in tables of 6 but there would be no mingling allowed inside between tables

• Safety measures in place in the hotel – hand sanitiser points, all staff wearing masks unless exempt, social distancing, table service for all food and drink, track and trace QR code
• Lateral flow testing weekly for staff

See you there Mike looking forward to a great week end

bigredduke · 14-06-2021, 08:40 PM

Still up for it Mike. Hopefully so is Utopia!. If he isn't, I will take a single room if available.

Do we pay in advance or on checkout?
Thanks for all your hard work, much appreciated!
