Re: Coronavirus
Just received an email from Kennedy Space Centre (I asked for a refund on 4 tickets and parking, due to them closing for an indefinite period from 16th March, and our tickets were for the 19th March - didn’t feel the need to point out we weren’t in the USA on this date...).
Thought CF-er’s might find this amusing.

Aye, they've gone further than even Corbyn wanted to, but I applaud them for doing the right thing.

That is actually amazing, they're throwing everything behind trying to save this situation as best they can.

Who the hell has a fax machine these days! I wonder if it's designed to put you off from claiming??
ISTR that there are/were sites online where you basically sent an email to a fax machine and it came out the other end as a fax. Maybe this would enable you to do it this way Hugh?
