"Hi everyone what’s everyone thoughts on clubs continue to staying open and putting people at risk from this cornaviurs as we got email tonight from club saying they will continue to stay open. We personally feel they should shut and not put people at risk what’s other people’s thoughts My friends and I are due at a swingers club event this Thurs and have been having this discussion tonight. I don't play at clubs, I only socialise and am wondering if I'm at any more risk there than I have been over the weekend standing in supermarket checkout queues for up to 20 mins at a time, in nine different supermarkets. I don't think anyone knows" I think after what got announced this evening by Boris and co I think clubs should be responsible and close doors until further notice yes we need do shopping and even go work but we need keep risk low as possible | |||

"It's for club patrons to make the decision. There are many clubs, across the UK, that would never reopen if they were to close for an extended period. Sadly it us likely that we will lose some great clubs if and when closures are enforced by government... They n They simply will not be able to survive without the income, as the bills will still be coming in as they don't have massive cash pots to fall back on." Yes ur right it’s up to the people if they will go along or not but even then people r unsure what they should do | |||

"Clubs can be a safer, cleaner place than supermarkets etc. Clubs have sanitizers available to use, are cleaned regularly. Plus how often do you go to a Swinger's Club compared to work or shopping." So u stop breathing for few hours but at least ur hands be clean then maybe not u might still have u hand full | |||

Many clubs accounts are so tight that they genuinely operate from month to month, with minimal capital available to cover shortfalls such as unforeseen closures.

Also there are a lot of clubs, ours included who have used the quieter months at the beginning of the year to do refurbs and make improvements, using any savings they had to undertake the improvements, hoping that the coffers will be replenished through the spring. Look at Le Boudoir... those guys have just moved to a new premises!!!! If we get told by public health to close, then we will close. But until then, we will remain open for those who want to use our facilities and maintain our cleaning and sanitising regime | |||

We personally feel they should shut and not put people at risk what’s other people’s thoughts " From what I can make out if you're normally fit and healthy there's nothing worse than the consequences of flu? I actually fall into the at risk category so won't be venturing out much. But come on the rest of you able body's don't hibernate yet unless it has really potential consequences for a vulnerable person in your life? Good luck everyone! | |||

"I have said this on previous threads... Let's say you are a couple who both work full time for the same company. You rely on that company for income and you have a mortgage, bills and a family to feed. The company says that you can walk out of work now for your safety and the health of others, but you won't be paid and you won't be entitled to any sick pay. Plus, there may not be a job for you when this blows over, so if you walk, you are walking into a possible dark future. Would you really leave voluntarily for the greater good and risk losing your home and putting your family at real risk of being on the breadline? If your answer is yes, then you are a bigger person than I will ever be but I think you would actually be paying lip service. please follow my green arrow and read some of my posts as it may give you our perspective and those of other clubs.

If clubs were to close they lose revenue, staff lose wages Who picks up that tab? It's up to an individual if they chose not to go. Why should many owners be left bereft of income and staff unable to feed their families? It will never be an easy decision for anyone to make but as one already stated are they at much more of a risk being in a sanitised club or a dirty supermarket?? | |||

But the sad fact is even if they stay open they'll have few/no customers, so it could cost them more to open (heating, light, staffing etc) than to make a conscious decision to close. | |||

"Well for now BoJo has only advised social distancing, the virus is spreading rapidly, hospitals will get overrun very soon, then people will start dying. 2 or 3 weeks it won't be advice from the government they will be forced to enforce all this. There will be greater suffering as a result, more businesses will fold. I don't think people have grasped how the world is changing, very rapidly. Half of europe is in lockdown, we'll be lucky if we don't end up with ration books for food If you're worried now about not being able to pay the bills than quite frankly you have no chance, it hasn't even started here yet. There is going to be hardship, businesses will fold, lots of them. Scoff and protest as much as you want, blame the media if you wish but this is going to happen, it's already happening in lots of countries, it's time to get used to the idea " | |||

"Just keep in mind that if clubs close for more then a few weeks a lot of staff won’t be getting paid. Bar staff, door staff, cleaners and admin etc It’s ok people who are working from home or on full sick pay saying clubs should close but some people won’t be putting food on the table for the next few weeks. " Exactly this! They might get sick pay if they are self isolating, but I think it's less than £100 a week. How are you supposed to pay your bills and get food for that? My question to all the people saying clubs (and schools etc) should shut is do you still commute to work? Still go food and essentials shopping? Or are you in a bunker somewhere, with thousand toilet rolls? I'm going to continue as normal until I am either told otherwise or until I start feeling unwell. | |||

"Me too .... well said .... I’m trying really hard to ignore the mass hysteria and carry on as normal " Same here, but it's getting more and more difficult to ignore it. I guess I'm lucky that I have no older relatives, and that if I do have to self-isolate, I will get paid. Not sure what would happen if my workplace has to be shut for extended period of time but I'll worry about it when I have to.

How long are you suggesting they should do that? Week, fortnight, month, 2 months? I'm guessing you've never run a business. | |||

" No you can't and I doubt anyone would ever ask you to until a full lockdown happens and the daycare services shut down all non essential services but in the meantime do you still put those people at risk by going about your daily business as if everything is normal? No of course you don't, you're looking after high risk people Make no mistake, a full lockdown is coming and the sooner people start acting with a real degree of caution the longer away and the shorter that full lockdown will be. Everyone is going on about how businesses will close, damn right they will but if everyone followed the advice given by the government there potentially will be fewer. It's a giant shit storm, there's little we can do now but try our best to lessen the impact in the long term instead of worrying about the short term. If you don't then you deserve all you get, it's no longer "IF" it's going to happen it's only "WHEN" now, lots of businesses will close, it is survival of the fittest, end of | |||

We personally feel they should shut and not put people at risk what’s other people’s thoughts " This sounds like it's predicated on the view that patrons are all sheep who attend clubs because they're open. Does the same idea apply to everyone who posts a meet? Every meet, club, profile that meets is the same, options for us to choose from. We're all sensible, liberated animals who can weigh the options for ourselves. If the government reduces the choices, fine. We will always have the final say with what we do or don't do. I'd rather have the choice than be dictated to locally. Like everything in life, people will have different opinions, just be happy with your choice and let other people make theirs freely too. Be safe everyone and enjoy today, tomorrow might be the zombie apocalypse! ?????????? | |||

"Public health is far more important than whether a club can survive being closed. Some clubs will survive and others won't. But new always grows from what was before. Respect to those that have put customer safety first a closed there doors. To those who haven't then it's the owner who has to live with your conscience.

"If your a club Owner and you rent the property that you are using how can you afford to close it you still have to pay rent, business rates, electric, gas, water rates , and so on So what ur saying it’s better to put people’s life’s at risk for a £ and would not like visit ur club This is the problem; your post seems predicated on the notion that club owners are remaining open to line their pockets with £, when the truth us that they stay open because if they close, they will likely be bankrupt and gone within weeks. Many clubs accounts are so tight that they genuinely operate from month to month, with minimal capital available to cover shortfalls such as unforeseen closures. It's not stupidity, it's the nature of the business." | |||

"It's for club patrons to make the decision. There are many clubs, across the UK, that would never reopen if they were to close for an extended period. Sadly it us likely that we will lose some great clubs if and when closures are enforced by government... They simply will not be able to survive without the income, as the bills will still be coming in as they don't have massive cash pots to fall back on. But the sad fact is even if they stay open they'll have few/no customers, so it could cost them more to open (heating, light, staffing etc) than to make a conscious decision to close." If a club closes voluntarily then they still have the same bills etc to pay and staff to lay off and without pay. However, if the Government forces or compels the closure then insurance comes into play. If anyone is concerned about going to a club at this time, that's your choice and I respect that but also if you decide to go, that is also your choice. Don't have a go at club owners for not closing, in fact praise them for being respectful and responsible by allowing their customers to choose. It's each person's choice, at the moment, to go where and when they want to and isn't that what we should applaud not condemn? | |||

"Just keep in mind that if clubs close for more then a few weeks a lot of staff won’t be getting paid. Bar staff, door staff, cleaners and admin etc It’s ok people who are working from home or on full sick pay saying clubs should close but some people won’t be putting food on the table for the next few weeks. Exactly this! They might get sick pay if they are self isolating, but I think it's less than £100 a week. How are you supposed to pay your bills and get food for that? My question to all the people saying clubs (and schools etc) should shut is do you still commute to work? Still go food and essentials shopping? Or are you in a bunker somewhere, with thousand toilet rolls? I'm going to continue as normal until I am either told otherwise or until I start feeling unwell. " Excellent | |||

Easy to say when you're not in that position. Youve now lost your business. But you probably still owe the bank money, which they'll require you to pay back. Your staff are all redundant. You now have no income, so are unable to pay your own bills. You're about to have your home repossessed. You're probably a bit hungry too. Even if you had money for food, there's none in the shops because they've been emptied by empty minded idiots. You'll probably have to sell your high horse. | |||

"At the moment it’s mostly about common sense - people are being ‘advised’ to stay at home, this is totally different from being ‘told’ to stay at home – you have to consider your own circumstances, if you think you or your close family are at a greater risk because someone close to you has a medical condition, then do the right thing by you, it is your decision and no one has the right to say you’re wrong. However, we work in a sector where we have been told to carry on as normal – and with this in mind and until we are told differently we will carry on with our lives as normal, so yes, we would go to a club, pub, restaurant, theatre etc until we are ‘told’ to stay at home, it’s our choice. We use common sense, if we felt unwell we would do the right thing (both of us) and self-isolate straight away for the required time. In the meantime, we will observe social distancing and follow as much of the advice and guidance to ensure any risks are minimised as much as possible. People make choices, clubs will stay open, most just to tread water to minimise the inevitable impact forced closure will bring, people will still visit clubs, not to infect people but to live their lives as close as possible to normality before we are all effectively put under a curfew. So do what’s right for you – open, close, go out, stay in – but whatever you do try and understand it from another perspective and then post an opinion that not only puts your point of view across but is respectful to the person (or club) who you disagree with.

"Hi everyone what’s everyone thoughts on clubs continue to staying open and putting people at risk from this cornaviurs as we got email tonight from club saying they will continue to stay open. We personally feel they should shut and not put people at risk what’s other people’s thoughts " Will respect, clubs don't put people at risk, people put people at risk It's been done to death, and if someone feels strongly then go home, lock the doors and wait for 2022 when there will likely be a vaccine | |||

"Just keep in mind that if clubs close for more then a few weeks a lot of staff won’t be getting paid. Bar staff, door staff, cleaners and admin etc It’s ok people who are working from home or on full sick pay saying clubs should close but some people won’t be putting food on the table for the next few weeks. Exactly this! They might get sick pay if they are self isolating, but I think it's less than £100 a week. How are you supposed to pay your bills and get food for that? My question to all the people saying clubs (and schools etc) should shut is do you still commute to work? Still go food and essentials shopping? Or are you in a bunker somewhere, with thousand toilet rolls? I'm going to continue as normal until I am either told otherwise or until I start feeling unwell. Me too .... well said .... I’m trying really hard to ignore the mass hysteria and carry on as normal " It isn't hysteria, believe me. The current guidance isn't specifically about preventing you, me or anyone from bearing the health impact of the disease, in healthy people the consequences aren't likely to be extreme and the prediction is most of us will get it anyway. What the government are trying to do is control the rate of infection. A million people becoming infected in a week is impossible to manage compared to a million people contracting it over a year. The NHS will collapse and more people will die. Currently there is no vaccine, you and I are likely to be ok, but vulnerable individuals will pay the price of reckless behaviour by others. | |||

Italy at the beginning of this had around about twice as many ICU beds that we do......... if people are wandering around asymptomatic... you may be spreading it around to people without ever realising it, to people with immune systems not as great as yours!!!! but hey.... thats their fault!!!! right!!! | |||
