"On arrival you are given a govt email address and asked to email them with name and passport no."

So they knew nothing about you really. You could have absconded

If its anything like what was on radio 4 the other day you'll be there 10-14 days...

Crazy cos they already had all our psssport numbers etc, they then asked for it all again over the phone just before sending us to the quarantine hotel, i guess they’re trying to check you actually got into the hotel. anyhow as per usual nothing back. you’d think they’d put sn auto responder on their emails at least.

survived day 1 just about.

Is this a veiled announcement that the launch title Vindaloo Volcano from startup Leeds based manufacturer Mismash Pinball is delayed already? Are pre-order deposits even refundable?

Seriously, I sympathise and wish you the best for getting home soon. I hope beer is available to the isolation quarters.

It doesn't sound like fun, have to see it as an unwanted extended break from things over here.
Good times will be ahead soon I hope!

There will be no beers in Stalag-19.

Don’t forget Arv lives in the land of the those giving gas to the gaslighters and thinking nobody knows who he is on the Internet [emoji23][emoji41][emoji38]

We ARE in Colditz albeit’s combined with The Hotel California. it’s a frigging nightmare. Food was inedible. even the bread was rank. room is like a fawlty towers set. it was probably ok as a hotel in 1974, actually probably not thinking about it. It would make a good prison drama tv set.

You really can’t post this without adding some pictures, it just isn’t fair.

I think we should all raise a glass tonight, a nice cold beer or glass of wine, and send Alan a photo so he knows we’re all thinking about him [emoji106]. It’s the least we can do [emoji6]

Is this meant to be cruel? Poor guys stuck in a seventies hotel with no access to alcohol or decent food and we’re all to taunt him? I’m in!

Painstakingly crafted using a blunt teaspoon???....

@AlanJ I feel for you, nothing for me until I drop of my boy back to his mother’s later…



Looking a little post weekend depleted, but I’ll struggle through, hmm which to have first??

Dig your tunnel to here and isolate in my cave

That’s a pretty serious drinks cabinet

I assumed the Budweiser was there in case anyone wanted a soft drink

 

[AlanJ]

Hey the wine order is in - gotta get everything via reception., but they seem to be doing it ok

 

[Big Phil]

It was all WOW until budweiser

Maybe you want to stock up in case you get moved? Glad you’re getting looked after to some degree, some not so nice reading on BBC news today about Covid quarantine hotels in Spain.

Yes not one of my favourites, but very good for dampening down the BBQ when it flares up, true!

Estrella tonight first, hop house 13 for my next.

Cheers everyone

 

[ianw]

Not sure what to put on the Blade next....

 

[Jagspete]

Finished my beers and the missus’ wine. Cheers Alan!

 

[AlanJ]

Hey I got wine stocked up. the local mini market guy turned up around 10:00pm. i was expecting him to deliver in the morning but he obviously knew i’d run out about 20 mins before he arrived.

Still not got an official communication on when we can leave, but who cares ive got wine to last a few days.
