replying to @RTWBarefoot @kate_frankie Intetestingly what I'm finding already on this trip is the 're-merging' of the concepts of Guesthouse & Hostel. I'm in a hostel rn, and was in a hostel in Kirkwall last week, both only offering private rooms. I can see this being a long-term trend #pttravel

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie Insurance is a very good idea & was something else I was doing prior to the pandemic. #pttravel

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie Good point. I always get insurance for overseas trips, but don't consider it so much for trips within the country. You really have to read the fine print with that stuff though. #PTTravel

replying to @RTWBarefoot @RTWBarefoot @kate_frankie Honestly, the weather I don’t mind. I had a perfectly nice chippy outside in Crieff last night. It’s the seagulls along the coast. They must not like pommes frites as much. #PTTravel

Q5 Is eating out or going to large events (festivals, gigs, markets) something you will do post pandemic & what would you like to see organisers do for health and safety?

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A5 I haven't been into large group gatherings for many years now anyway. I feel like there is more justification for avoiding them now, lol! #PTTravel

replying to @kate_frankie
@kate_frankie #pttravel a5 i barely did it pre-pandemic. I'm not the best person to answer that question lol.
In truth, all the pandemic did is let everyone else see my normal standard life lol. So really, apart from going to the pub less, for me nothing did, and thus will not, change!

A5 #pttravel Watching the #Indy500 & that large crowd makes me nervous. I don’t think I’m ready to sit in a crowd that big. The Indy cars come to @Portland_GP in September & I’d like to go, but not sure if I’m ready.

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A4. Same accommodation. I like staying in hotels. So I am confident that they are doing their part. #pttravel

A5 We went to a carnival this week, looking to get funnel cake. But we were brushed aside by staff still setting up 20 minutes after opening time, proving Billy Joel was right: Only the good die young. #PTTravel

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A5. I’ve not been to a festival since I was a teenager so it’s not really a consideration. I’m a big snacker, though, so I’m loving that Scottish cities have pedestrianised so much of their centres for outdoor dining. Union Street in Aberdeen is transformed. #PTTravel

replying to @GlassmeyerP @GlassmeyerP @kate_frankie Yeah, totally. I know some people get a kick out of people watching or enjoying the atmosphere of restaurants but I’d much rather eat on the move and save myself the time and expense of a sit-down meal. #PTTravel
