Lincoln Christmas Market - Sunday Cancelled

[Guest]

So what? Those making them out as laughing stock should be ashamed of themselves.

 

Never mind merely the weather IN Lincoln, what about all the thousands of people who would have travelled to it from many different areas.

 

When the Met Office are posting severe weather warnings and national motoring organisations are saying to only travel if absolutely necessary what exactly are the event organisers supposed to do. Just sit back and stick their fingers in their ears?

 

Yes, we in Sheffield may have got off rather lightly from the predicted forecast but many other parts of the country didn't.

 

Why the hell would the already stretched emergency services want a major event likely to put thousands of extra vehicles on the road taking place on a day like that.

 

Why should the traders be forced to set up and travel themselves in potentially hazardous conditions to an event where footfall could be hugely down due to adverse weather.

 

Some people need to look at the bigger picture.

 

The market could have been left open for the shoppers and traders using it from within Lincoln.

 

Why do those in charge of the market feel responsible for those traveling from further afield into Lincoln?
