"Hello so what is the weather like today, hasn't it been a bit rainy?"According to the locals they haven't seen rain like this in four years. We've been struggling because we don't have a dryer and rely on sunshine every day to dry our washing. In fact hanging out washing seems to bring clouds rolling in from nowhere! | |||

"Another piece of local gossip is that the tour operators have refused to bring tourists to the island while there are immigrants in the hotels. Some people are saying that there is a law which prevents them being there after December 31. Hotels still housing illegal immigrants will be fined. We're waiting to see what happens..." I guess you can understand that, that's probably why people are having their flights cancelled. I hope they get it sorted for everyone's benefit... | |||

My understanding is they have also changed some regulations that allow the authorities to send some of them back where they came from. Hopefully that becomes a deterrent. I honestly feel for those who genuinely come from wartorn countries, but there are others who aren't who are milking the situation. | |||

"Is it true the weather in Gran Canaries is around 12 degrees max a day?" Right now it's 17 degrees. This has the locals out in heavy jackets, polar neck Jerseys etc. We've seen more rain in the last week than the last 3 years combined. We are still walking around in vest and baggy shorts. We don't even have a jacket between us over here. | |||

"The Boletin Official of the Canary Islands (BOC) number BOC-S-2020-249, has today published all the new measures in relation to the situation of the coronavirus pandemic in Tenerife. Yesterday, the Government of the Canary Islands decided to establish a curfew for a week, reduce the groups to a maximum of four people, prohibit drinks at the bars of premises, and suspend all non-professional sports activities for two weeks due to the rebound in cases on the island. For details you can go to: https://www.canarianweekly.com/posts/boc-published-new-restrictions-for-tenerife" Yes I've been reading that, why do you think their rates are bad compared to GC? | |||

Again like you said, not regular thing out there. He did say it was warm though lol, not helpful when drying washing though. Hope it is improving for you x | |||

"It seems to bother a lot of people when general discussion occurs on dedicated Spain threads. If you were to have a chat about GC in the Lounge people would be asking to move it to the Spain area. So here it is. A general Canaries news, views and ideas and some good old fashioned general banter welcome. " What a great post and such informative information. I hope it continues up to February 2020 when we intend to visit. Enjoy and hope the rain goes soon xxx | |||

"What's the score in the clubs and bars such as comeback and secrets? Can me and the OH play or is it socialising only? " Clubs which have doors with access control tend to have more rules broken in terms of social distancing. One strange law is you can't dance. So if the music gets switched off you need to quickly find a seat. I played that game as a kid. To be fair I haven't seen a lot of play. It's happening at Secrets, Venus and La Mirage, but on a much smaller scale than before Covid-19. | |||

Secrets is a club that couple's and singles can attend depending on the night. As with all clubs they have couples only nights. | |||

The point about needing to be buzzed in is that by the time the police have been let in people have stopped dancing and sat down. I am all for COVID-19 regulations and rules but this thing about dancing is just silly. Most of the infections in GC are Las Palmas and are largely work place infections and home celebrations. They broke down the source of outbreaks the other day and none of them were from tourists. With the new testing requirements, tourists are probably some of the safest people on the island. | |||

It's happening at Secrets, Venus and La Mirage, but on a much smaller scale than before Covid-19. Nice info! Which ones have the access control entry? Also I thought all the clubs you mentioned are couples only? My understanding is that Venus and La Mirage don't let in single males but most of the clubs will charge single males an entry fee. The point about needing to be buzzed in is that by the time the police have been let in people have stopped dancing and sat down. I am all for COVID-19 regulations and rules but this thing about dancing is just silly. Most of the infections in GC are Las Palmas and are largely work place infections and home celebrations. They broke down the source of outbreaks the other day and none of them were from tourists. With the new testing requirements, tourists are probably some of the safest people on the island. I really don't understand the no dancing thing.. It's not hard to understand really. No dancing is allowed. It's against the rules, even in this country nightclubs are still closed. Dancing whilst keeping a two metre distance around you from other people outside your family bubble would be near impossible in places like fun4all. Oh, they have family bubbles in Fun4All?
Well husband and wife is a family bubble. Girlfriend and boyfriend is too. If you don't understand the rules about dancing and the virus you should maybe stick the the virus forums to argue them out
Oh don't worry, I understand the rules they are dancing in Fun4All and it doesn't seem to be a problem, which is why I don't understand the no dancing
Well if you're okay with dancing and breaking covid rules then more fool you. Long live the virus.

It's a rule what's not to understand. Those dancing are breaking the rules. The club's allowing it are breaking the rules and opening themselves up to fines. In struggling times that seems ludicrous.

"Right let’s recap....... We’ve reached 101 posts on the thread so here it is. We started quite well with the OP leading the way with a semi sensible post to get things going. Let’s be honest it was just drivel.....but it was a start. On we went to a bit of idle chit chat about the weather......how fucking interesting. Still it managed to get a few people’s post count up so it served a purpose. Next it’s about the virtues of how splendid Gran Canaria is outside the concrete shit hole that Playa del Ingles is. Yes, someone discovered that they do have grass and trees. No shit Sherlock. Back on to the weather and it got exciting as we were all treated to the fact that the rain had stopped and they could dry their washing. Anyone else fall asleep at this point? A few posts about Covid (it had to appear at some point) by the UK’s swinging ambassadors currently laying up in GC sorting out buying a bar and things began to take shape. A post pecking order had begun. Someone was not going to be beaten even if it meant just saying ‘thanks’ or dropping in a complete nonsensical emoji. Remember post counts are everything. Then the fun began.....dancing. Exception was taken, and a brief but amusing spat began, a few emojis and the odd tongue in cheek remarks regarding having a good day and things calmed (sadly). Now, I think that sums things up in a nutshell, not bad for “General Canaries News” (ffs I’m not even sure if that’s the title I’ve got that bored) and we’ve learned nothing. I personally think there’s scope for another kick off as we’ve still got about 75 posts available. If not we still haven’t mentioned mini golf, the lack of drugs due to the Kasbah being closed or where you can get the best full English. " I'm really impressed you counted how many posts there were. Where did you get the time? Mini-golf? yes please!

"Tortillas for us please, bolognese and cheese. Luvlyjubbly
Love the spicy ones
Spice is our life
Lovely try the Doritos flaming hot tangy cheese now there hot
Hold on a minute, everyone is going off topic, I was talking about popcorn not cooked meals or general snacks, you people just love to mess up a thread don't you.
Keep to the subject, we are at the cinema here watching a comedy so it has to be popcorn right cause when you burst out with laughter and spit out your food, popcorn is far less dangerous than a spicy chilli dog or whatever floats your boat.
Of course I'm assuming you don't swallow it first, what do you think sensual?
Oops think I mixed up tortillas with Doritos
Someone kill me
Can't do that, your pics are too hot!!!

"The whole idea of this thread was that anything goes. So there can not be no off topic. Indeed we are fortunate here in GC where the infection rate is the low double digits to be lecturered on controlling a virus from people where infection rates are in the tripple digits. One glaring difference is that anyone in Fun4All is either a local with very very low infection rates or a holidaymaker who has had to pass a Covid-19 test. When the UK had the infection rates we have now you were all having raves, infection parties and eating out to help out and Boris was encouraging mingling. " Well said an excellent recap | |||

" Why can't you get tested in the Canaries before you leave? You could catch it on the journey home" From a statistical point of view the likelihood of someone in the UK catching Covid-19 from someone who just got off a plane is 41 310 times less likely than from someone already in the UK. | |||

"Because everyone on the plane going to the Canaries has a negative test result ?" But it doesn't work going back the other way? How does a virus know which direction the plane is flying in. If the plane has technical difficulties and has to turn around will everyone on the plane suddenly be at risk because the plane is flying in a different direction. Ok... seriously though. Either test on arrival is better or test on departure is better. But it can't simultaneously be both and neither. | |||
