Work are actually ok with me self-isolating when I get back but in a nutshell my dad passed away suddenly yesterday evening and self-isolating would mean we’d be able to go to his funeral but not the wake so a bit of a non-starter. I’d have knocked the holiday on the head if it wasn’t for my dad saying the other day how glad he was that me and my Mrs were taking my lad away so we’re determined to do it one way or another now and then be back in time for the funeral. All in the very capable hands of Lord Traf who will be having several small churches built in his honour throughout the north west if he manages to pull this off. Sorry to hear about your Dad mate. Hope you can have a decent holiday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So as far as the holiday companies are concerned, the Balearics and Canaries are still open as normal and tough shit if you can’t go to work (or your parent’s wake) when you get back. No idea how they track these things, of course, or how successful they are, but it would be a risk to ignore it really. Cheers for your thoughts gents.

birch-chorley Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 A couple of weeks back I had symptoms so did a drive through test, results were back the next morning, very efficient to be fair I’m sore they have good reason to say isolate for 2 weeks but surely you could get tested after say 4-5 days for an all clear?

Lets hope by the time the summer season starts next year that this has gone away, but i have a feeling its the new normal for the foreseeable. It's very green and with lots of lakes for a reason you know. On the other hand was up there one easter (late 80's) and was sunbathing in the morning, whilst it was snowing in Bolton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leyther_Matt Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 So 9 nights in Tenerife has become 8 nights Turkey and then 7 nights in Corfu via East Midlands, but words cannot express my feelings for @Traf right now. Worth his weight in gold. Here's hoping the rules stay the same between now and Monday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
