How can anyone tell for sure? The uk imports raw materials for all sorts of things and if there’s a reduction in the drivers of UK haulage firms entering the EU due to not having the necessary paperwork there will be a reduction in them returning with other goods?

Or is it just because we are now making more PPE?

At Christmas my niece was travelling home to Spain from her uni in Wales. She arranged the Covid test 3 days before but the results still weren’t through by the time she was due to board her flight. She had to book a hotel overnight. The negative result came through the next day and she managed to book a flight to a city 4 hours from her required destination., an expensive trip!
That's the problem with the tests, the PCR one takes a couple of days and if your flight is on a Monday and they're not working on the weekend it's a very small window. It's not even clear when to get the test, I read on the Irish government website that it should be taken within 72 hours of travel but I believe for the UK it's the result has to come back 72 hours before travel.

Or just get a fake certificate, met a guy in Mexico who did exactly that when he realized the test wouldn't be back on time.

It was on the radio this morning that people were making dental appointments with dentists in Benidorm. They would show an appointment confirmation letter at the airport.

Jesus, the lengths people will go to for some sunshine.

Good for them, people need a bit of sunshine. What a depressing time we're in, you have to keep your self sane and if that's a trip to Spain then great if you can do it.

They love each other so much. But it's tiresome going into every thread and seeing the same some pikkering, they should just embrace the love and go on a date.
