Once again trying to set aside the bitching and politics... are they all peopled by idiots?
I had a Skype chat with a chum in France last night and, in passing, he mentioned his lot's latest rules on travellers to France and Covid tests. I was ignorant, so checked what he told me - not that he'd lie, it just seemed so unlikely - and he was right. All travellers entering France must show a negative test within three days of entering, except road travellers. Unless President Macron has discovered some amazing anti-viral property in tarmac the latter seems daft and as for the first bit, barn doors come to mind. My chum - French, not expat - thinks this is stupid beyond words, although he found some, and that it makes the curfew and the probably coming lockdown pointless...
It would be great to have a gloat about this from the smugness of a sensibly organised ant-virus nirvana, but our lot are as stupid; why on Earth are they still faffing about regarding quarantine for people coming into the country? Even PP has told us that we weren't strict enough in the first wave, so why repeat the bloody mistake...
Family, friends & news from elsewhere give me reason to believe that the UK & France aren't alone in this affliction.
