Covid and travel discussion

[SB Blue]

I agree with you but information is leaked and it's front page news in 3 papers in the morning.

The government have briefed the media too many times over the past year prior to announcements, although the press have also written a lot of stuff off their own back which turned out to be BS. Unfortunately this combination makes it difficult to tell which this story is, personally I think it’s the latter.

Maybe the reality will be somewhere in the middle with travel corridors again, ruling out foreign holidays until October at this point doesn’t really make sense to me.

If anything, this thread this morning has shown some have a very distorted view of what holidaying in the UK is actually like.

I love my hols in the uk. Equally love them abroad. Variety is the spice of life.

i work hard and my hols in the greek sun are my week to sit and do fuck all and rest my bones. My week in the uk is all about exploring, no rest on that one.

so we cant demonise people just because they desire a change and something different.

i hope to fuck i cam get on that iron bird in aug

If you all think one of the reasons behind the ‘holiday in the uk’ isnt money for the gov then you need to have a think.

remember cameron almost guaranteeing, nigh on promising, he had it off the top weathermen, that the uk summer was gonna be a scorcher so book a uk hol ...

it pissed it down all summer , but he got us spending our brass in blighty tho

Then I can guarantee,you will deffo need a coat,and probably a brolly as well to be honest

Let her come see him. My mum died 4 weeks ago, no way me and my 2 sisters werent together at her bed side when she passed.
Covid could fuck off

Not that easy. She’s not allowed to leave the UK and our borders are closed in this part of Austria. She booked a flight just before Xmas and then the borders were closed. All flights cancelled

Nail on head end discussion on this note

If I was thinking along the same lines as some on this thread I'd take a good look at myself and I'd feel pretty fucking ashamed of myself for feeling that way.

Me too. I was watching some walking programme the other day and we were jotting down place names on the yorks coast we need to visit.
But life is also about freedom and travel and the gov have to be careful about restricting movement too much

 

[Innsbruckblue]

Of course that's not selfish. I really feel for anyone that can't visit loved ones abroad at this time. It's truly awful.

Saying there could be public unrest because you can't have your two weeks in the Med for another few months is showing an incredibly selfish and entitled attitude though.

I agree with the selfish part. Plenty of them here too
