Default Nano green light?

Having just announced that groups of 6 can meet outside, do we have a green light for 12 cars to meet at the midlands nano?

I’m guessing that 6 can meet in the large tarmac car park and another 6 in the grass car park where we usually meet. As long as we keep 2 metres apart we should be ok walking around?

My tongue is firmly in my cheek but there could be something there potentially?

I like your logic, and I'm anxious to get the South East Meetings restarted.

If you run your idea past Boris, and mention that there are people anxious to travel (almost) less than 260 miles, I think you might just get a sympathetic ear.

If you do, please let me know.

We will get the Nanos up and running ASAP but currently the Four Ashes has large concrete blocks all across the car park preventing entry into the field so until it opens for business whenever that may be we are stumped

I have been in contact with the owning company twice in recent weeks trying to find out what the situation is after lockdown.

After first of all asking me if I wanted to take the pub on ( I said no ! ) they have now confirmed that they are recruiting so I can only guess that means Damon has left, which is bad news because it means it wont be straight back to business as usual after lockdown and without a tenant in there we have no meetings, so possibility the 1st meet of the year might be September or worst case none this year at all.

The owning company do not enter into any conversation just a few words in reply so still some mystery around it all, maybe Damon was still in a period when he could pull out of the deal, and he may ressurect it when lockdown ends but i think we can only take things at face value and plan for worst case which could be another venue on a temporary basis when we are allowed to meet again.
