Mounts Kipper Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 As it stands if you fly back from amber area, you need a pre departure test for coming home a 2 & 8 day test and still have to quarantine for 10 days, that’s tighter restrictions than last year, it really is madness, last year you just had 5 day test & release, this government are really going to kill the travel industry.

What are the rules in other countries? I know you have a love/hate relationship with Boris, but look at how a variant has managed to land on our shores with the tightest restricts of all.

It’s clear how the variant arrived, Boris allowed Indians and Pakistanis to fly while European destinations were locked down, methinks fear of being labelled racist allowed those flights to continue & that’s why Blackburn Bolton, Bedford and the rest have high rates of infection and clearly they don’t listen to social distancing, household mixing, mask rules and have low uptake of vaccinations, get a proper grip on these areas and it’ll soon reduce levels of infections.

Us palefaces aren’t completely gout free once the restrictions are lifted though. Last summer, loads of surges from pubs etc.. Foreign travel is just asking for trouble this year. I’m as annoyed as you as I have a family place over there and am desperate to go, but I see the reasons for hanging on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want a holiday as much as the next person, but if we don't get away this year, and it's not looking likely, then it's not the end of the world really I agree that it will further decimate the travel industry, as Mounts says a couple of posts above.....it'll be interesting to see if they announce another extension to Furlough in the next week or so, if they do, then I think that tells us al we need to know about what's happening for the rest of this year. I already suspect the "unlocking" on 21st June is already going to be pushed back into July Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, if they lock us down they seem to do it for everyone and then let us out first. Which is nice of the government. Some extra good news as well ahead of the easing, Bromley was the only borough in southeast London recorded to have a lowering rate, with the latest data putting the infection rate at 13.8 (46 new cases), down from 15.0 (50 new cases) in the preceding week and Lewisham has the lowest number of cases in SE London. Anyway, what's this rapid response team that's been sent to Bolton? If anyone sees a Donald Sutherland lookalike, I'd leave.

Greater London - it's a big ole place... Love this place - start an arguement about postcodes 😄 Basically, you can be a london borough and use a country address if you're not central.

Well, this is a minefield when it comes to Enfield! With an EN postcode you can be in Essex, various London boroughs or Hertfordshire. You can’t be in Middlesex, because it doesn’t exist; however, various websites state Middlesex as the borough when you put in an Enfield postcode for delivery. 3 hours ago, DirtySanchez said: Enfield was Middlesex As you correctly pointed out - “was”.

marple whites Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 So hit and miss, don’t know what it will be like when you are there and the airport hassle etc don’t think we will bother - plus the fact we quite often miss first couple of games - so every cloud !! don’t really understand why everyone is so hung up on getting a road, I love going away, but what’s a bit longer in the scheme of things - let’s get this virus sorted and then go from there......
