Week 183

Friday 3rd September 2021 to Thursday 9th September 2021

A big improvement in the weather so managed a trip down to Worthing.

The beach and pier

I gave the seagulls the last of me chips…

😀

We are off to Portugal on the 30th so I have been getting the van ready. I spent a good morning wading through French, Spanish and Portuguese government websites checking out what COVID related hoops we need to jump through to travel down to Luz and back.

The biggest pain is our government want us to pass a PCR or antigen test in the 3 days before getting on the ferry at Calais. If we fail it then we have to spend 14 days quarantining in France.

With 88,8%  of over 16 year olds having had their 1st COVID jab and 79.8% having had both jabs, with 100,000 people having attended the Reading pop festival the other week, with football grounds packed to the rafters and pubs and nightclubs open why on earth do I as a doubled jabbed UK resident have to take and pass a PCR or an antigen test to return to the UK from France.

As I told my MP, it’s a fuckin’ joke.
