Will anything actually change? I am thinking not except more businesses will go to the wall and we will end up with even more eye watering support bills that will have to be paid off.
I was off to South Wales during half term to spend money in the country for a week until I was banned. That’s 7 restaurant meals lost plus 7 trips to 7 safe pubs gone from the Welsh economy. Plan B is to rebook and go to probably Norfolk. Now I dare not book anything with only 10 days to go.
If anyone was thinking of a last minute trip to Europe and a safe country, they won’t be now.
Now let’s look at Christmas, seems a good opportunity for another 2 week lockdown seeing that schools will already be closed. Anyone thinking about booking their Christmas break?
I can see BJ making a U turn and insisting on the circuit breaker, but for how long?!
As for the Christmas holidays, everything is booked for 8 of us to Malaga. All paid for prior to March and as long as flights are operating I will do my best to ensure I go! No quarantine on arrival and when I return I will be homeworking for 2 weeks.
In the meantime, I need to get home to the UK first...
