All activities 18-20 of Feb suspended

Just a heads up for those that haven’t seen the announcement.

all RAFAC activities (including parade nights, courses, outdoor events etc.) planned for the period 18-20 Feb 22 are to be suspended

Watch out for that weather folks.

Why 3 days, even though only a yellow warning for North England and Scotland?

No warnings at all for North Scotland Wing.

Kneejerk much.

Not normally one for saying things like this, but yesterday’s amber warning for Scotland and North England didn’t trigger any response.

Wait, does this include my first aid course inside?

According to the announcement, yes.

It includes literally everything. Parade nights, courses, the lot. For the whole country. For some wind.

I can understand it in the wings covered by the red warning. But UK wide for 3 days is a bit extreme?

Also, why Saturday and Sunday too? There are 0 weather warnings in place for both those days…

There’s my afternoon gone undoing an indoor weekend course that is nowhere near any Red/ Amber weather warning, which in any case are not in force on Saturday or Sunday.

What about cadets that are prepositioning for activities next week?

This is beyond idiotic.

Exactly…ridiculous logic at play here. Understand reasoning if it is the area affected by a red warning…but the weather in the South West is going to be vastly different in Inverness?

Stolen meme, thank you to the person that shared it with me.

They clearly have no regard at all for how much effort people have put in to things happening this weekend. No consultation with anyone. Joke.

The reasons for going paperless are all the more clear now. It’s not to save money, it’s to prevent papercuts.
