Thanks for the interesting stuff you have posted Ian. 

Please be a tad more understanding of those who have chosen to wait a bit though. I have a Mum who needs care, and if I get out and about more amongst lots of other folks, it heightens the risk for her. I have an OH who is in the shielding group and I am doing all the shopping etc.... to minimise his risk. I also have a best friend who has just commenced lifelong kidney dialysis this last week, so at severe risk. I value my family and friends first at this moment in time, certainly above my own gratification. So your sweeping statement about delicate disposition, tiny chance of catching this, arbitrary age is a touch insensitive and uncalled for. As you say, the choice is mine. I am happy for those that are out there, but mindful of those who have responsibilities to others as well.

Nicely put brue, much more delicate than my attempt, but the sentiment is the same I feel.

Club has to provide some sort of tally system for those wanting to use the loos, hence it’s come up with the bowl of Milton (or something similar) It’s an aid to keeping things as clean as possible, an item that is going to be handled dozens of times a day by different people. If a band is in there long enough, it will get the full anti viral effect. If it isn’t, then you have to expect folks are still bright enough to combine this with using their own hand gels as well. Some will, some won’t. Some will wash their hands, some won’t. It’s now the responsibility of each individual to care for themselves, not rely upon others to do it for you, at any point.

I'd be interested to hear from the club the drop out rate this summer from bookings made and those that are canceled or no shows. I had thought perhaps to spend  three weeeks in September   starting at a CL in Lochearnhead , then up to Bunreee near Fort William and then up the nortrh east coast at Brora . The Bunree site has no availability in July or Auigust and only two or three odd days in September.  It really does show the folly of our current booking system as I suspect many of these bookings will never materialise  as they've made on spec and other's like myself are blocked from making rock solid bookings

I may be being thick about this - but what are the bands for?  I understand that loo blocks need to have fewer people - but how do the bands help?

Fortunately we are off to Thetford tomorrow - no loo block, so presumabley no bands.
