This week seems as an appropriate time to thank some folks, Nicky Gilmore from Point East Battlefields Tours, Adrian Rolston Cairncastle Ulster Scots Group, the first Group Orginiser's to enquire for October & November 2021 ! Recovery is going to be painfully slow but we thank you for your enquiries 6 days to Belgium & France, 4 days to Fermanagh !

Probably sums things up !

It's been a while since we posted ! The main reason is there was nothing left to say, our business of 20 plus years seemed to be slipping away before our eyes, thankfully financially we were sound enough to refund every penny of our clients monies held on deposit, after the three month vehicle finance repayment holiday was over the worry started again as new Covid regulations took away any hope of getting people back into coaches, we began to accept that business wise 2020 was dead, with not much to look forward to in 2021 strangely Coach Hire or Coach Tour business owners did not qualify for any of the support packages offered by Government, effectively leaving the industry to sink or swim ! I honestly never thought I'd ever direct any form of praise to the folk on Stormont Hill, but they seem to have listened and are leading with the first offer of financial help in either the UK or Ireland to the Private Coach Operators.
Maybe Christmas might not be so bad after all .

Thank you for your messages of support during such a difficult period.

Stay safe and keep your distance .

Robin, Fiona & Rory.
