"So if clubs are off limits for the rest of the year (at least) which seems to be the case, who'd be up for opening their house as a private party venue??
Once lockdown is all over...... "
Planning one here! Large isolated house with secluded grounds. And plenty of rooms/ bathrooms And play areas. Date to be announced later in line with government regulations. Pm for details   |

I’m with you on that and had a slight glimmer of hope of getting back to work earlier in the week |

Sorry to be the voice of doom here but there seems to be a destinct lack of common sense here. Clubs look to be closed for a long long time but that wouldn't mean large house party's being able to take place while social distancing is here and it looks as if it will be for the foreseeable future. Last thing you would want is the police turning up and people being named in the press. |

Sorry to disappoint you but nothing in hospitality is due to reopen til at least 4 July. If we're lucky, non essential shops might reopen in the next stage in just over a week as you've suggested. If we're still meeting all the 5 criteria of course, plus they'll make up some other stuff too no doubt!
I'm going to avoid most things til there's a vaccine. Only going to meet one on one with my regular playmate. I'd like my nearest club to survive so I'll get in touch with the owner to see if she can run some online workshops or something so she still has some income from me, but no clubs or parties for me for a long time |

Not a fan of private house parties. I (mrs here) am just going to wait for clubs to reopen once they feel it is safe to do so... until then im shagging me fella only
I agree with the issue on private parties expecting everyone to play, even if i knew everyone i would hate the expectation. At clubs i more prefer the social aspect and if i really am in the mood ill play. |

Clubs and private parties both hold risks so until social distancing guidence is relaxed they will be off limits
Hopefully the guidence should be relaxed later this year once all businesses are back open and rates are low enough
The government will have to relax the rules as they will need the working class to pay back all the furlough costs
Not to mention all the pent up sexual frustration of the

That is far from true. Some house parties are pure play in the same way that some club events are pure play.
In general, most house parties are very social with the opportunity to play should you want to. Having been to many, and I mean loads, of house parties and even more club events I can assure you it's true. House parties are associated with the mythical "keys in a bowl" thing (which I've yet to come across) but that couldn't be further from the truth. In fact I know of only one "expected" play party and that's actually more of a club in someone's house. |

I’ve not been to one house party that I’ve really liked If I’m honest
All seem a bit staged and slightly pressurised
Club scene is more my thing by far
If there’s no one that that takes your fancy you can still find plenty of people to socialise with
Will be holding out for them to reopen again |

Pubs are already looking to open for takeaway sales. 4th July is for the first ‘on site’ hospitality venues. It’s all baby steps and there are a lot of milestones to pass before we get round to clubs opening.
Hopefully, Understanding the value of antibodies & getting viable testing for them in place will be the key to getting things open sooner rather than later! |

? Can anyone explain the difference between a volume of people who may or may not know each other meeting at a “house” than a volume of people meeting at a club ? Or is the risk somehow different. |

The difference will be one can only happen when the government allows it or risk losing their license... I guess. |

House parties tend to be smaller affairs, we probably average 20 couples, obviously we can only talk about our parties, but everyone saying they feel pressure to play or it's free for all, are completely wrong, our parties are very social and everyone chats, we ensure that no one is left in the corner (so to speak).
Yes there are rooms to play in if you wish but that the night is more about meeting and chatting with new people.
THe same rules apply as in a club, no means no and show everyone respect.
Also saw a comment about guests being to the hosts taste, again we don't agree with this, we allow anyone to our parties, our reckoning there's someone for everyone and let's be honest we're only going to appeal to a few couples at best.
They both have their merits, why not give both a go and see for yourself xx |

House parties can be great fun, as the majority of people have already met through clubs or socials.
As for them going ahead, yea they probably will.
As these are normally invite only and not advertised on here you will never know what exactly is going on. |

Seems an awful lot of negativity being expressed here. As clubs obviously have a larger number of attendees, obviously any risk of infections would be increased? I thought the idea of a house party would be more appealing as for obvious reasons numbers would be far more limited? |

Its just taken 11 weeks for BoJo to decide its "reasonably safe" to allow as many as 6 people from your own family in different households to sit 2 metres apart in a garden.
I'm pretty sure 4-6 or more unrelated couples are very unlikely to get naked inside someones house for a party environment |

Well he has a point to a certain extent the fewer people you meet the lower the passing on of infection rate, might not be totally sensible thinking as any meets in large groups is dangerous |

Surely if the house and outdoor space is large enough it will be easier to keep social distancing rules in place than a busy club? I only know one well but passing on stairs and corridors is a problem as 2 mts cannot possibly be maintained? With limited numbers there should be plenty of space to stay safe? |

I am in the unusual position of agreeing with Bruce
Private party or club you have no idea of the contacts people have had with others even if you trust them or not!
With still 6000 plus new cases a day clubs or private parties are dangerous especially if alcohol is involved. Kid yourselves on social distancing if you want but private parties are just as dangerous as a club would be at this time.

Absolutely spot on. 50000 infections a week but so many deluded people on here saying they 'can't wait until lockdown is over' ! |

The clubs will probably remain closed for a while longer than other pubs and bars and for good reason. So how is having house parties a sensible alternative? Good luck in explaining the difference while still hanging on to some common sense |

Some on here are just devoid of any common sense at all. Swingers clubs are finished as long as the virus is here. Large house parties will still be banned even after lockdown is over, and if people were to attend a private swingers party it would be risky not only health wise but what is the chance of a neighbour reporting a party and people being named in court because of being prosecuted. |

"I think opening club's if only for social meeting is the way forward. I agree, it will keep our clubs going"
Some clubs could open as a bar if they are big enough for sure. Others couldn't with social distancing and reduced capacity due to their shape and size. It needs to be financially viable to open. Clubs like Xtasia will be brilliant for social events as it's massive but we would struggle with 2 metre distancing. |

I believe Radlett is a big house with a hot tub and Sutton is a big house with various playrooms.I guess it could be possible for these to host a small house party but with only gatherings of 6 people would it be worthwhile to the owners and organisers |

The problem with the c19 “laws” such sex with someone you don’t live with is :-
1 many laws are left in the statute & NEVER repealed
2 so if you fiancée lives outside your household it’s now ILLEGAL to make love or have sexual contact
3 book into a hotel with your partner / not married & don’t live together
4 how does one define - two teenagers kissing on a park bench is that sexual activity now
& so many variables where the police have powers that in my opinion they simply shouldn’t have & probably don’t want.
Putting clubs or house parties aside. These LAWS are invasive - against basis human rights & a power grab. They may never be appealed behind the containment of this virus. STUPIDITY. |

Agreed. Brits are doing what they want anyway now, so I'd like to see our understaffed and demoralised police trying to enforce these 'laws'. Out of everything that has come from Covid, this latest announcement has been, by far, the most riduculous and unenforceable of them all!!! |

Totally agree it’s a ludicrous situation and in reality will give swinging even more negative press that it has already. The government could be concentrating on more enforceable and constructive measures than this latest farce. |

Two key words there about the police service in the UK “understaffed and demoralised”.
They are damned if they do and damned if they don’t - always the first target of public frustration - trying to interpret/enforce laws that they themselves may find unworkable or ill advised. It’s always the “police’s fault” - never the government , prosecution service etc etc. The media seldom seem to praise the emergency services - and if they do it seems as though they are just looking to put them on a “pedestal” so they can then knock them off again.
Less than a year ago the country was outraged by the death of a young policeman who had only been married a couple of weeks - run over trying to do his job and stop thieves.
I agree with Bruce as well that the police probably don’t want to have to enforce these laws which have come in with what appears to be very little thought or consultation, and are no doubt hoping that they’ll be repealed as soon as possible. |

They do indeed & now they have been put in an impossible situation. To enforce the unenforcible, to spy on people’s private lives (including their own colleagues & families). These are powers laid in law. Anyways onwards & upwards. |

Both are a fairly reckless concept, the nature of the hobby means anyone attending an event with someone carrying the virus is very likely to be infected even if they avoid direct contact with that person.
The only slight difference in risk is the chance of the virus being picked up at a club from infectious particles from ‘previous events’. Sanitising a space is a monumental task, not one any club or household is going to be able to do properly without professional help and equipment. If the space has carpets, material covered furniture etc... really it’s a case of cleaning the space and locking it off for weeks whilst nature does its work in killing the matter.

I absolutely disagree with some of you regarding house parties because I have both been to them as an invitee and as a host. And while there was certainly a lot of no-holds-barred sex, nobody was expected to play. People were as welcome to socialise with each other as they were to play. If anybody goes to a house party and they feel EXPECTED to play, somebody is not doing something right. |

In my experience the problem arises when too few people turn up.
Then the onus is on the ones that are there to join in. |

The onus shouldn't be on anybody to do anything. Even on the improbable occasion of a house party where only 2 couples and one single show up and the two couples cop off and the single doesn't like to play with anybody, then the single person can always politely kiss, shake hands and leave, after socialising, or maybe stay and watch...it's not a job interview or exam, it's supposed to be an intimate gathering for like-minded people to relax in a non-judgemental environment. |

Agreed. Brits are doing what they want anyway now, so I'd like to see our understaffed and demoralised police trying to enforce these 'laws'. Out of everything that has come from Covid, this latest announcement has been, by far, the most riduculous and unenforceable of them all!!!
Two key words there about the police service in the UK “understaffed and demoralised”.
They are damned if they do and damned if they don’t - always the first target of public frustration - trying to interpret/enforce laws that they themselves may find unworkable or ill advised. It’s always the “police’s fault” - never the government , prosecution service etc etc. The media seldom seem to praise the emergency services - and if they do it seems as though they are just looking to put them on a “pedestal” so they can then knock them off again.
Less than a year ago the country was outraged by the death of a young policeman who had only been married a couple of weeks - run over trying to do his job and stop thieves.
I agree with Bruce as well that the police probably don’t want to have to enforce these laws which have come in with what appears to be very little thought or consultation, and are no doubt hoping that they’ll be repealed as soon as possible."
Totally agree. I can categorically state that every single cop below a certain rank has no interest or desire in enforcing half of the Covid laws, especially one so Invasive. |

"The problem with the c19 “laws” such sex with someone you don’t live with is :-
1 many laws are left in the statute & NEVER repealed
2 so if you fiancée lives outside your household it’s now ILLEGAL to make love or have sexual contact
3 book into a hotel with your partner / not married & don’t live together
4 how does one define - two teenagers kissing on a park bench is that sexual activity now
& so many variables where the police have powers that in my opinion they simply shouldn’t have & probably don’t want.

Love both.
Private parties, especially the ones that are a tad difficult to get invites are by far the best.
Been to a few that are just word of mouth and invites from the organisers, they ask you not the other way around.
Clubs are really nice as it's an easy night with a range of people.
Can't wait for normal to come back |
