Any clubs closed ?

[Parsaregood]

Two courses not far from me have been quick to update on social media - closed. I guess every single club in the UK will be following that line.

I was hoping that the 'daily exercise allowance' could include a round of golf

I'm sure it still could, I mean if your alone is anybody really going to bother you ?

 

[Jacko_G]

I'd definitely say the greens and tees could be classed as an essential part of a clubs business which if not maintained would impact negatively on the club so I'd be surprised if greens staff wernt allowed to at least carry out the essential basics

You not going to be paying your green fees now?

Have told our lads to carry on tomorrow but to stagger meal breaks and keep to 3 m apart to be on safe side . Will assess in the morning when the situation is clearer hopefully .

I'm still awaiting confirmation from the club of their direction on this, I'm hopeful they may offer this year pro-rata given it's likely going to be shut for at least the first 2 weeks of the new financial year but if not I will pay them under protest

If members don't wish to re-join they should inform the club a month before the renewal date , or they could be debt barred, and pursued for fees, as stated on the joining form they signed.
A few have been debt barred in the past but none pursued so far

Course closed until further notice.

Thankfully Scotland seems to be following UK advice.

It's still unclear whether building sites are to be closed given she only said her advice was that building sites should close but if that's only advice it's hardly an instruction and does she have power over the UK government on this. It's really not clear. Also what about self-employed builders/joiners/roofers etc with jobs half done, if a roof is half stripped off a house it's hardly a good idea to leave it like that for an undisclosed amount of time

 

[Andy]

I’m not in Scotland ?

Im aware of your location Robin, but if Scotland deems it necessary to close them I'm sure BoJo will be the same.

 

[Fish]

I don’t think she has given a directive to close them, and can she Trump the PM’s guidelines?

She reiterated it wasn't a choice earlier today, it was compulsory.

 

[Fish]

Loads being announced on Twitter, I’ve just received an email from my club, closed until they can digest all info and consult.

 

[Fish]

She reiterated it wasn't a choice earlier today, it was compulsory.

So is our PM’s announcement only to England and not the UK, and Scotland are now doing their own thing?

 

[Parsaregood]

I don’t think she has given a directive to close them, and can she Trump the PM’s guidelines?

She hasn't given an instruction to close them as far as I'm aware, im not even sure her devolved powers allow her to, she seemed to just regurgitate everything Boris said
