My other half and myself have been out and about quite a bit recently, biggest hassle as life has to conducted outside is finding coffee or food outlets with such even for two, with one exception Shobdon airfield which has both decent catering and plenty of tables, which would probably work for you guys.

By June they're either going to be open - or bust, Chris.  :(
Here's hoping it's the former for most of them.

Best of luck...I’ll need more than a date before I sit next to someone indoors apart from my other half, or are you calling it a ‘2 jabs meet’  ;)

...and, as a back-up to the re-book, Lil at Bryncelyn has a lovely non-en-suite room on the top floor with its own, private bathroom.

I have booked the above Brian, and you have a PM.
If at first you don't succeed then skydiving definitely isn't for you.

I think most attendees will be double-jabbed by then, but it's not a pre-requisite.

Right now, daily infection rate is around 2,000, so assuming only say a 1/3 are spotted let's say 6,000 per day in reality. With a population of 60 million that's about 1 in 10,000 people. The number of people I intend to sit indoors with in the 3 days is quite a small number - well below 10,000. The risk is low, and lowered further still by the jab(s).

And weather permitting, we'll be sat outdoors.
Oh, it's Wales, so make that indoors then.  ::)

I'll probably be the only murderous one in the group, as ever. So I'll pick who I want to sit next to very carefully. Very carefully indeed. BRIAN. :p

We'll just put a plastic bag over your head and seal it shut Matt, that should protect us  >:(

Ha!

In all seriousness I'll be isolating for the two weeks before so should be as clean as a whistle. Apart from that cat virus thing we all have in our brains.

I think the majority of us would have had two vaccines by then and as long as we stick to the rules and wear masks and sanitise frequently I'm sure we will be as safe as we can be.

I think (but can't be arsed to find out) that we took more risks on last year's Wrinklies with the state of the nation and none of us had had the jab then.

Brian & Badgers,

Yeah good point chaps. If the love of my life wants to meet to critique my lock-down haircut in those two weeks then i'll say yes.

£45 per night per room from memory Rae. Normous Irish/Welsh/English breakfast thrown in. And if you argue with Lil, it will be  :)
