    the doctor has told me I am now not in the category of essential shield for me It’s advisable but if the rates stay low the doctor said I have more chance of rolling double 6 ten times than catching Covid now however I should remain vigilant

    Personal choice mate, I know you’re dieing to go :56:

    I just personally couldn’t spend 4 grand on a holiday during a global pandemic. It definitely won’t be your regular Benidorm holiday.

    But fair * if you go and enjoy yourself, that’s all that matters.

    Got confirmation tonight on a few things for anyone who has a holiday booked.

    jet2, Ryanair, tui and Easyjet will insist on using the FCO guidance for any flights in and out of Scottish airports they are the UK body which has ultimate say over anything in the devolved governments when it comes to border control.

    which means those in the green and amber section will be deemed as low risk regardless of what the devolved governments will say.

    Coverwise insurance and 99% of the insurance companies will also invoke said advice.

    spoke to both about quarantine perhaps continuing in Scotland for those in the amber section they have yet again confirmed

    go or lose your money the FCO have said it is safe - also Glasgow airport have spent £300,000 getting the airport Covid ready!

    * of a situation for everyone know a guy who is flying out to Lanzarote on Friday regardless!

    The whole holiday situation is a * mess. Looks like your best option is to go and do your best to enjoy it.

    Bit strange Thailand not being on the UK governments travel list.

    3500 cases 58 deaths

    Maybe the UK doesn't believe those numbers.

    Just watched a friend's Instagram story, on a Ryanair flight from Prestwick to Mallorca.
    Drunken carnage, about 12 faces are visible on what looks like a fairly buys flight, not one is wearing a mask over their face.
    A few have them wrapped under their chin, but are clearly drunk and singing and dancing away.

    If this is what they are like just getting on a flight, flights where masks are meant to be mandatory, and if this is Ryanair's ability to control it, then the Spanish are going to love us going over there and I'll expect both countries to see spikes and more local lock downs.

    Those getting the chance to go out, be sensible Bhoys. Take care of you and the family because clearly the rest of the population are Muppets.

    Why would you not go mate? I don’t know how things are in Benidorm and have never been but it would be nice to get away from here for a while. The travelling might not be much fun but it might be ok when you’re there. Decent weather anyway. I appreciate that Scotland seems like a bit of a safe haven just now but we can’t all just stay here indefinitely. Losing £4K would * me off.

    14 day quarantine remains in Scotland from Spain due to the high prevalence of the virus in the country.
