Reminds me of Not the Nine O'Clock News in the 80's - "Come home to a real fire - buy a holiday home in Wales..."
If they'll have you and there are any left to serve you.Yes, but they'll be grovelling for our money once this crisis is over. Me? I'll go abroad.
I think a lot of people who live in pretty areas with no industry might start to disagree once this is over and they start to wonder how to replenish their bank accounts.
I've huge sympathy for locals who are priced out by {insert preferred epithet} for whom a barely affordable home is pocket change to the tourists, and would have no problem with councils who doubled the council tax on second homes, but how long would Cornwall or the Lake District last without tourists?
