IOM Scooter Rally 2020 - Cancelled

From NWBA facebook page:

Isle of Man Scooter Rally Event's Page - IOM Scooter Rally 26-28 June 2020
We are very sorry to have to announce the cancellation of the Isle Of Man Scooter Rally 2020 due to the lethal Covid 19 virus.
Although this was looking the likely outcome, the Manx authorities made the decision yesterday to close the Villa Marina theatre until at least September.
We are hoping and already making plans to host the rally next year if everything falls into place. An update on this will follow soon.
We thank everyone for supporting the rally in such large numbers and hope to see you at this rally in the future.
The most important thing at this time is that everybody comes through this situation safely and we all get back to normal living.
The IOM Steam Packet are offering refunds but you might find at this busy time for them an email is a better method. Always quote your reference number however you contact them.
Thanks again and best wishes
Barry Turner.

Judy got a phone call from the Steam Packet Co.yesterday offering a refund on the holiday.They took our details and said the money would be refunded direct to our bank account.It would take a couple of weeks before the money was transfered.

Once I receive a refund form the Steam Packet Co. I will reimburse Rosie, Don and Graham Fox with their deposits. Provided that they still have their receipts and a letter signed by both of their parents. In the meantime I will keep the monies safe in my back account (earning interest) until this Corona virus escapade has ended. Keep safe everyone. Graham Lloyd.

Just out of interest, who is Rosie ?

Well spotted, damn predictive text. I did change Donna to Don though, so I almost got it right. I hope this doesn’t stick for him.
