Bill Posted February 11, 2021 Report Share Posted February 11, 2021 This morning, Matt Hancock was being grilled over why he was advising people to hold off booking their holidays while he himself had booked one in Cornwall. He said that his holiday was booked several months ago, and that people wouldn’t find this difficult to understand. He then when on to say, what will be difficult though is for journalists to make a real story out of this. So funny, but what’s not funny is when it makes your tea come down your nose and back in the cup. I don’t know if I should thank Mr Hancock for giving me the first laugh of the day or criticize him for ruining my breakfast cuppa.

Latchford Locks Posted February 11, 2021 Report Share Posted February 11, 2021 A staycation should be viable by June hopefully. Most jabs will have been done and infections should be at last summers numbers or less. At least thats what I'm planning for. Not sure if it's The Lakes or Snowdonia yet but fingers crossed it will happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted February 11, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2021 Let’s hope so. It might not be much help for the wider travel industry, but the flip side is UK tourism will probably have its best year ever. I’ve got rescheduled tickets from last year to see Tom Jones in July but because this is a normally crowded event, I’m not sure it won’t be postponed again and if this keeps on, his supporting act will be the Zimmers.

Observer II Posted February 11, 2021 Report Share Posted February 11, 2021 Ministers would be better employed down playing expectations and singing from the same hymm sheet; instead of confusing the public with grains of hope. The R-rate needs to be radically reduced, before any relaxation. 😷😠 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil Sid Posted February 11, 2021 Report Share Posted February 11, 2021 Well it looks like i will be going to argate again this year. With good views of the house next door, handy for the shops and local transport and within walking distance of the local parks. a bargain at nowt per week only downside is it is self catering....... oh and just to show my ignorance. Who is Matt Hancock?....🤦♂️ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted February 11, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2021 You’re no different than me then Sid. To me, he’s the bloke that often takes the mike at the Downing Street press releases when Boris isn’t available. I had to Google to find his official title of Secretary of state for health. So don’t feel too bad about not knowing that in fact it’s reassuring to know I’m not the only person that doesn’t get too excited over politics. And btw, looks like we might be holidaying at the same place, who knows, maybe we'll bump into to you. Bill 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asperity Posted February 11, 2021 Report Share Posted February 11, 2021 Mr Hancock is very well paid and even if he has to cancel his holiday in Cornwall I'm sure he'll find a way to sneak the cost on his expenses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted February 12, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2021 I haven’t a clue what the man earns but politics aside and based solely on TV performances, he deserves to be paid double that of his bumbling and stumbling opposite number.
