PRINCETHORPE MOTORING FESTIVAL CANCELLED
It won't come as a big surprise, but due to the Coronavirus situation, the annual Princethorpe College Motoring Festival has been cancelled.
A provisional date for next year has been set for Sunday 27th June 2021.
This is a shame but we are where we are.
Perhaps we should have a go at some sort of "virtual" gathering...?

Car meets are happening again now (at least in my county). This seems to be local groups meeting up in carparks etc, and maintaining appropriate distancing. We are not out of June yet so it is possible we could have some kind of DAF gathering within rules this year. I think 2m has reduced to 1m, but it is not difficult keep apart outdoors. With hindsight I think some events need not have been cancelled, but this threat of Covid needed addressing with zeal.

Looks like Leicester is heading for another lock down. I worry that the present gung-ho attitude is going to cause many area lock downs if not a country wide one,it's almost as though vast numbers of folks don't still understand the huge implications of this virus. I think the US is an example where millions are now infected because the "President?" gives off a gung-ho persona and there has been a very slow response to the problem. Let's hope the UK doesn't go into another lock down and we can begin to have "meets" again as andrejaun suggests.
