Unfortunately unless we hear from the foreign office not to travel I don't think we can get a refund. If there's an offy open I'm sure we'll find something to entertain us.

After Australia imposed self isolation to international visitors today, my trip to visit my daughter and grandson next week is now off.
There is no point in going if we cannot get out and about. Most of the usual attractions will be closed so we have decided to delay until things get back to normal.
As nobody has actually said we cannot go, it will be our choice and might prove expensive. Hopefully we can reschedule the flights if we are unable to get a refund.

I had an email from North Sea Ferries saying it was business as usual regarding Hull to the Netherlands, however that was yesterday and the situation is changing so quickly I have doubts about our usual venture into Germany later in the summer.
Might do Scotland instead if there is any accommodation open.

Looks like interesting times ahead

all restaurants & bars will be closed as well as non-essential shops. If you can, postpone the trip until everything opens again as you are going to rather bored!

A friend lives in Paris. Grocery shops, many with off licences, and takeaways can stay open so you won't starve.

3 nights in Berlin flying with BA in May with my wife seems unlikely now.

Was to be closely followed by 10 days on the bike with DFDS ferry through Netherlands, Germany, Belgium to enjoy some nice roads and classic car racing at Spa. Seems doomed now.

Hope I can reschedule and/or reclaim all the committed cost from insurance.

Stay-cation is the name of the game now.

I wonder if I can borrow my lad’s caravan?

I think my upcoming planned break in Spain with the Mrs (fly to Barcelona, 4 nights there, train to Madrid, then a further 4 nights there before flying back from there) is going to be well and truly shot to shit, so to speak.

*sigh*

Unless Taunton & Somerset ban mass gatherings

Will be the first decent ride of the year and am looking forward to it.

As previously mentioned, had to undertake fiendishly complicated rota swaps just to get the week off that I wanted, which means I'm "on call" while you guys are enjoying the roads of Somerset and Devon *sigh*

I'd be there otherwise...

Cheers
