i understand, but we can t quarantine when we come back, for work. so we just had to cancel everything. frustrating. it s not a problem for me, i m retired. but my daughter was coming out with her friends on sunday. they ve now had to cancel. so four of them are really disappointed, i guess. i definitely can t quarantine - for ten days when i come back, due to business commitments. so i probably. i will make a decision very shortly as to whether i go at all. - in portugal, beach bars and restaurants have been steadily filling up. today s news was crushing for the seabrooks, who run a bar in the algarve. well, unfortunately, we employed ten new staff in the last week, and every single one of them will have to be made redundant. it s just terribly sad. and the suppliers, carriers, all of the testing centres, for the travellers to get back efficiently without queues, it sjust rubbish.
