    Actually its on the Amber list so two tests and self isolation for 10days on arrival in UK. Coming back only citizens and residents with 5-day quarantine in hotel.
    I came to UK for 3 weeks in May and spent 10days self isolating there and then 5days quarantining here. I had to have 6 PCR tests for the pleasure.
    Extra cost for testing and quarantining came to about 600quid.
    Going to do it all again in July with the added cost of beers for Chippy if this get together goes ahead.

    The costs of that aren't as high as I would have expected . Still a lot of extra money though!

    The traffic light system which is intended to make money from testing and to try and get one over on the EU by allowing travel to countries where next to no one is likely to go and not to our neighbours.

    But they're such pretty colours!

    That's all that matters surely?

    It’s either safe and you can go - Green

    or it isn’t and you can’t - Red.

    Amber = ****show

    Bearing in mind we’ve now somehow managed to attain one of the highest infection rates in the world again, after Johnson kept India off the red list as he wanted to go there on a trade visit, the truly dumb, irresponsible, sociopathic ****, it’ll be other countries who’ll be making the decisions on our travel shortly.

    A complete ****ing shambles

    100%

    The majority of places they have added to green - Caribbean. A favourite destination for the Tories and their donors.

    **** the lot of them.

    Its all good mate. They reckon by the end of July you'll be able to travel freely without quarantine to even amber countries provided you've been double jabbed.

    With a jab that doesn't work <laugh><laugh><laugh>

    Looks like Indonesia will be going to UK red status very shortly. Cases taking off here, hospitals packed to bursting and highest official weekly deaths since start of pandemic. New restrictions coming in shortly.

    I will have to rethink my trip back for 2nd vaccination at end of July but on the upside I wont have to buy Chippy's beers again.

    Bet you lot wouldn't be very happy if they started doing this in UK:
