hammer1969 421 Posted June 19, 2021 Or get all Speedway meetings 're classified as "test events" just like at Donnington this weekend where they have a music event over 3 days with 10,000 people no masks and no social distancing. Bloody powers that be must think 1500 in a speedway meeting is a 100% Covid spreader. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The exception being that if 2 households add up to over 6 people, that too is allowed. That btw is for indoor mixing, and despite being a mostly outdoor location most stadiums have adopted this policy. So as long as groups are less then 6 people, or groups bigger then 6 are made up of two households then no rules are being broken? I am going by what the rules said on the Poole website. Indoor mixing has different rules to sport events, where it seems to be decided by whoever is in charge or the council. Edit - https://poole-speedway.com/ticket-office/code-of-conduct Also if you could have any old 6 people sitting together, why does it say rule of 6 or 2 households?? If they mean six randoms then why have the 2 households it would contradict itself. More like it is 6 people from 2 different households which is what I thought. Seeing as apparently the council are thinking people broke their rules, that would make sense. Edited June 20, 2021 by lisa-colette Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The 2 households is for groups of over 6 people, ie a family of 4 can mix with another family of 4. 3 families of 2 CAN meet up, but 2 households of 2, and a household of 3 cannot. In simple terms any 6 people can meet up, but for groups of over 6 this is strictly limited to 2 households. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

With the vast majority of adults now having had injections, I do not see why we cannot get back to more or less normal life. So many businesses, including Speedway, are suffering needlessly IMO. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At the same time I hear on the news because of the new variant hospitalisation are going up quickly, deaths a bit more slowly. Also read on the news at lunchtime, in USA they relaxed on wearing masks but instances of cold and flu going up. Think I will be wearing a mask come the winter, that’s if we not wearing already.

Deaths are still at a low level(but still too many) whereas hospitalisation going up I am unsure BUT the number of positive covid is going up but is that due to more testing(free & personal test carried out more frequently) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
