Not wanting to derail the thread, but I don’t think using a racist, sexist, ageist slur is OK.

When Di's funeral was on I took the wife's V8 TVR for a bit of a trundle. Roads were lovely and quiet...

I remember I got a load of tiling done in the kitchen. And it was quick and easy to nip to the local B+Q for some additional grout as the roads were quiet and the isles free of wailing sheeple.

Following on from the BC U-turn, Center Parc's have now reversed their original statement about closing their venues completely on Monday and the ever reliable Poke has collated the best responses.

Center Parcs are now staying you can stay, but can’t leave your lodge, quite aside of the legal implications of forcing people to stay inside, not sure how they are going to enforce that if nones working?

she fully embraces the mawkish national obsession with the monarchy and doffs her cap and tugs her forelock accordingly
It is possible to be interested in an event that hasn't happened in 70 years and not go full "cap doffing, forelock tugging" Daily Mail reader in the process.
Edit- I hope!

Centre Parcs are still making a PR (and customer care) Pigs Ear of it.
Apparently: „Guests already on holiday will now be able to stay, but people due to arrive on Monday will not be able to start their holidays until the following day.“
So if you’ve committed to travel arrangements you’ll have to find a hotel for Monday - or bring a tent.

Hopefully the roads will be nice and quiet for my drive up to the hills on Monday. Then my cycle into the foot of them. I was always( with the exception of her bailing sweaty Andy out) fairly unbothered by the royals. Weird how much of a republican you can become in a week.

Recently I received an e mail from British Cycling to say my membership is due to be renewed, I will not now renew my membership. Incidentally I was marshaling for the TLI championship at the weekend

I think this whole episode just shows that British Cycling are largely only concerned with road racing as it is clear there is absolutely no thought given to all those who will have to cycle to work on Monday or will simply be using their bikes for transportation.

yep a pretty stupid thing to do by BC
I keep meaning to downgrade my sub as I don't race any more, but they auto renew, another bug bear of mine. May actually just phone up and cancel now
and I was at centre parcs during the beast from the east. roads were shut there was deep snow everywhere. I had 2 children under 4 and 2 grandparents over 70 and centre parcs were insisting everyone needed to leave when they were due to, and that you would have to drag your cases through the snow to the car park as their roads weren't usable. no thought about their guests and the impact of turfing people out during a massive freezing snowstorm with no actual way to get home because the roads were shut. caused a night of serious stress for us and other guests I might imagine. in the morning they reversed the decision and let guests stay. you couldn't actually leave anyway.... I won't use them again either. they absolutely do not put customer first.

I’m sure the Daily Mail types would have been delighted to be held up on their journey to watch the funeral by a bunch of those cyclists who don’t pay road tax or gave number plates.
People driving cars on the day of the queens funeral, that is so disrespectful.
