#1 by Paul Barker , Tue Sep 08, 2020 2:50 pm

hi all. sadly due to coronavirus getting worse Elaine Guest has decided that in the interest of health and safety to all dealers and collectors. the blackpool film fair will not go ahead as planned this year. the new date is sunday 21st november 2021 where a bumper film event will take place. the new date is all set and confirmed. i know it has been hard for Elaine as what to do. but the safety of everyone comes first. the virus is still having effect on so many things and sadly many are still not following government guidelines . hence the situation we are still in. Paul.

I know many were still planning to go to this event but i did have an idea this may happen so for that, i am sorry to hear this. Lets hope this darn thing gets sorted or dies out sooner rather than later.

Beats me why tens of thousands of Uni students are allowed to move all over the country and put into thousands of HMO houses, many holding 12 in houses designed for moderate families. The courses could mostly be done on-line, by the end of this month we will all see the results of this. Simply ridiculous, yet small businesses who may have had one person suspected with ti, is shut down. I just dont get it.

Lets all hope next year things will be different. It's been the most weird year ever!!

For the best I think Paul, I was 50/50 as to whether I would go whereas next year is another story, bigger and better I say

This seems like a wise move considering the current state, although sad. I am marking my calendar for next year!

This is a shame but I suppose it was expected - oh well the Imperial gets a cancellation !
