I’m a bit perplexed with some of these restrictions. Surely if people have been fully vaccinated it’s ok to resume normal life? I was of the impression that COVID is never going away and always going to be somewhere in somebody, like the flu. Now hospital admissions are low in the UK that curve has been flattened.

anyone who has recently booked to go on a foreign holiday, should have their heads examined and serves them right if they're now having problems going.

I agree. It takes a certain kind of stupidity to book a foreign holiday right now. The vaccination does give a guarantee at all

Many folk are flying in to Portugal and going on holiday in Spain, no border control, you can just drive over. Italy too.

When do you think foreign holidays should start? What about people who have to travel back and fore to different countries for work or family reasons etc?

This is an absolutely huge balls up. No country should have been off the green list 3 weeks after being put on it.

A colleague booked a week in Portugal leaving next Thursday on Wednesday. She's stuffed now.

It effectively pulls the rug out from under the travel industry for the entire summer season. I was hoping to get away this summer no chance I'm going now, not even on a very late deal.

I'm hoping I can go on last years trip to the Canaries this October but these variants have changed everything.

Easy to do and the chances of getting caught out are pretty low unless people get grassed up.
Whole thing is a shambles. Anyone booking a holiday abroad is afoot rental, things can change overnight.


Afoot rental should be radio rental. Predictive text I suspect.

Afoot rental?

Anyway, a colleague of my wife is going to an amber list country soon. She told work she was going regardless and she'd take the isolation period as unpaid leave. Now putting aside how barmy I think that is, when did workplaces get so pliable?

How can somebody demand the extra 10 days off even if unpaid? When this all kicked off it was obvious the rules would have to be relaxed because so many people were involved through no fault of their own, but to go away knowing beforehand and demanding the time off?

Just my opinion, but WTF do I know anyway?

Well it's amber list, holidays aren't llowed, it should be essential travel only. Then there's the extra time off work which her colleagues will be left to cover.

As it turned out she's not going, her tour operatro cancelled her trip. She's now having a staycation instead and will be back in work on time. You watch now, she'll probably catch covid closer to home and end up isolating anyway!

The thing about being fully vaccintaed is, it doesn't guarantee you won't catch and spread the virus, if she caught a new variant she could bring it home and cause problems.

Everyone needs to behave until Thursday, after Thursday I don't care!

Just my opinion, but WTF do I know anyway?
