Covid and travel discussion

A tall Bhaang Lassi should help the mind recreate those happy days - Miss traveling in India, it’s just so bad it’s so good

Me too.

Not been away with the family for two summers now, jus5 had a look for a lodge type place in Cornwall in July 2022, £2700 for 7nights self catering, well they can just fuck off. No wonder people go abroad normally.

Plus it will be pissing down in Cornwall.

I have got around not being able to get away, by recreating my time in India by hiring beggars to hassle me in my garden, emptying my bins on the grass and digging up the pavement. I have four cows being delivered next week to cut about nonchalantly. I drew the line at drinking Kingfisher beer. Im not fucking mental.

Might as well go to Piccadilly gardens for the more authentic experience

Some cheeky packages doing the rounds with day flights both ways. Twenty one days self catering in a one bedroom 4* apartment in Cala Bona for the princely sum of £290. Whats not to like. Any cheaper and you'd be in a fox hole in Mons. Tempted

Got to do our tests
on weds night to travel to Lapland on xmas eve. To say im shitting myself is an understatement.
been doing LFTs regular anyway and up until yesterday was a big negative. Still shitting my nick-nocks though

The reality of it that you will get pinged when you get home and have to go for a test, which will bring a period of isolation with it. How that is managed all depends on your employer I suppose. Mine have said that we have to have the day 2, which is standard, and so isolate til the result, but even if negative we have to do a day 8 test and so isolate until the results of that are in even if first one is negative. That time has to come from you, not them. So more annual leave days needed. My leave year is April to April, so if I wanted to go away I have a week left, but not the extra week to cover the isolating days

I guess by that time omicron will be well spread in Thailand..well behind in vaccination and not much booster rollout. How much restrictions will the thai government bring in ?

Just make sure your insurance covers dangerous sports.
