November meet - maybe, or maybe not!

Posted by Dell on October 20, 2020, 8:30 pm

Just for info we have a booking at Rhyd Ddu on the weekend of November 20/21st. I’ve changed the original number of 16 places down to 6 and rebooked for more next year. However, of course, Wales is in a two week lockdown where hotels etc have had to close. Depends whether that gets extended or not. I’ve emailed the hut Secretary to see if they’ve changed any of their policies in the light of last week’s ruling. We’ll see what he comes back with. Anyway, in theory, if 6 people would like to go next month there will be the opportunity - so far! Watch this space. 🤞🙄

The Welsh authorities say that the lock down will not be extended because after only 2 weeks the figures will not yet show how much effect the lockdown has had.
I am interested ina place please

Here is the hut secretary’s reply. It’s very fair in the circumstances. See what you want to do. 😊
Hi Dell

Yes its an ever changing situation. The hut is still open and we are following Welsh rules as they change so no one in for at least the next couple of weeks but your booking is still OK at the moment and that would be a maximum of 6 people from 4 bubbles. We are also allowing the use of our car park for campervans should any of your members have them so you can have more than 6 going but we would ask that they do not go into the hut.
Obviously this makes planning your weekend very difficult so we will be totally flexible on hut fees so you just pay for actual bed nights used (including vans). We can even transfer your deposit to your March booking if you want.

Hope this helps.
Michael.

No matter what the Welsh do, I think it’s a racing certainty that most of us will be living in either Tier 2 or 3 by then and not allowed to meet indoors with people from other households...Either that, or an English lockdown

How close is the car park? I’ve forgotten. Nights are very long to be stuck in a van without electric hook up.

Romantic evening under the stars with candlelit van and no snoring by the fire to contend with. Do you not have battery/ LED lighting ?

I’ll give it a miss I think! We have got LED and battery but if it’s cold then the heater can use quite a bit of battery.

I would like to attend the “may be/may be not” meet...in the hut.
