Is that for real, and if so, can I ask where you have seen? We are training down from Pisa that day.

Thanks. Here’s hoping!

I did see there was a National strike yesterday/today so not impossible!

See link above National Strikes (If I'm reading it right) don't affect public transport.

Blimey, that looks like everybody EXCEPT transport.

Let’s hope it stays that way, going via Milan and train down

Can we please do due diligence on this thread.

My sphincter can't take another workout - after yesterday it's applying to be on next seasons Gladiators.

That article is headed "04 MAR 2022 | 04:43 PM UTC" There's a clue part way down when it starts talking about covid 19 social distancing measures being enforced in demos.

Ah, gotcha. My Google-Fu is lacking

My son looked at booking some train tickets and it came up with information regarding strike action but then it seemed to be removed? There have been strikes but hopefully they have finished.

Phew!! Really don’t want to hire a car now having booked trains.

It looks like there is a strike on the 8th.
Not good for us, need to get back to Milan for flight.
