Do I bother travelling 10 hours this weekend (5 hours each way) to take dc to a fairly niche sporting event? It’s the national championship. How likely do you think it is that it’ll be cancelled following the death of the Queen? I need to leave by midday tomorrow.

Have you checked the event's Twitter feed/Facebook page? People are being relatively quick to get updates out about what is and isn't being cancelled.

Muchtoomuchtodo · 08/09/2022 21:47

Yes, nothing yet. I’m putting off packing just in case but it’ll probably turn into a mad rush tomorrow with a token 2 minutes silence,

I don’t think much will be cancelled. A lot of people are anti-monarchy, so it’s easier to say ‘she’d want you to carry on’ than have people protesting about things being cancelled.

All professional football.

Tomorrow’s tour of Britain bike race.

Tomorrow’s tour of Britain bike race.

They’ve announced it’s cancelled.

@weebarra professional football games went ahead tonight albeit with somber music playing and no advertising

TooMuchToDoTooLittleInclination · 08/09/2022 21:51

Just read several shops are closed ELC & the Entertainer. Some schools.

could go either way, I'd be refreshing the web page

Yes Tour of Britain cycle race is cancelled Friday and announcement to follow about the Saturday and Sunday stages of the race.

theoriginalteletubby · 08/09/2022 21:52

Quite a bit IMO. Remembrance Sunday wouldn't be cancelled in a period of national mourning, anything else - possibly.

OrangeBananaFish · 08/09/2022 21:55

I'm at the great north run on Sunday. Didn't really occur to me if it would be cancelled or not.

weebarra · 08/09/2022 21:56

@Beautifulsunflowers , probably too late to cancel. I'd be v surprised if they go ahead at the weekend.

NYNYNYNYNYNYNYNYNYNYNYNYN · 08/09/2022 22:00

Horse racing for tomorrow has been cancelled

SudocremOnEverything · 08/09/2022 22:04

I really don’t think cancelling stuff is the thing to do. Have an announcement and a minute silence at the start, but run the bloody great north run for your charity a

SudocremOnEverything · 08/09/2022 22:05

It’s not disrespectful for people
to acknowledge it but life to go on.

GNR have said on their FB page that they'll be making a decision on whether it's going ahead tomorrow

Muchtoomuchtodo · 08/09/2022 22:35

Such a mixture of opinion.
I’d like it to go ahead, I don’t think it’s disrespectful.

Football will be cancelled. Some matches have announced postponements for tomorrow stating it’s the football leagues decision so can’t see any matches going ahead this weekend.

Fantasticfroliks · 08/09/2022 22:42

I did read that Fridays sporting events are cancelled

Raindancer411 · 08/09/2022 22:57

Legoland is closed

Workyticket · 08/09/2022 23:01

Dh said League football matches were cancelled when Diana died so expecting them to be this weekend

Wondering about grass roots 🤔

mondaytosunday · 08/09/2022 23:14

Nothing hopefully. I imagine there will be some closures for her funeral on the 19th.

partystress · 08/09/2022 23:17

Cricket test match has been suspended. Although weather would probably have stopped it anyway for tomorrow at least.

That was only because they were European matches and the opposition teams & fans had already travelled so it was too late to cancel.

Our local brewery has closed all its pubs tomorrow. Back open Saturday
