Well, surprised that those from tier one and two are welcomed into Wales now and Vice versa. So if I want a pint I can grab a bus into Chester. I don't by the way.

Looks like I may well get my annual walk up Snowdon this year after all. Just the weather and my own fitness to stop me now.

Meanwhile, Italy prepares for Christmas. A different approach.

 

Travel between Italy’s regions will be prohibited from December 21 through January 6, with people barred from travelling outside their own towns on December 25, 26 and January 1.

The decree includes the “strong recommendation” to avoid hosting those who do not live together. 

Other regulations set to be signed later on Thursday are expected to mandate a 10-day quarantine for those arriving in Italy from foreign countries, beginning on December 20.

The move is in part designed to prevent Italians from travelling to ski slopes that are still open in neighbouring EU countries.

The government is expected to retain a colour-coded risk-based system that imposes varying levels of anti-coronavirus restrictions on different regions.

Bars and restaurants are expected to remain closed in regions in red or orange zones. A current 6pm closure in yellow zones may remain, as may a nationwide 10pm curfew. 

In yellow zones, where eateries are open but required to shut at 6pm, the government is debating whether to allow restaurants to serve lunch on Christmas Day and December 26. 

Ski slopes are expected to be off-limits, as well as cruises.

Interesting that the C&CC have stated (on their Web site) that they are allowed to open their sites in Tier 3 for the Xmas period, and are doing so, from 22nd Dec through to 28th Dec with your support bubble. Restriction is that you can only arrive on the 22nd and must leave by or on the 28th. Any info forthcoming from this club..

Anyone with bookings on Welsh CAMC sites or CLs should note that Wales will be going into a National Lockdown from 28th.December. This will include the closing of all holiday accommodation unless in exceptional circumstances.

You may need to alter your plans.

Indeed, the full details remain to be published but the FM announced that Wales will enter the new highest level of restrictions (Level 4) after Christmas (Dec 28th) this will be nation wide . Some restrictions come on the 24th (non essential retail), hospitality at 6.00pm Christmas day, then full lockdown on 28th. This is likely to be even stricter than the first lockdown in March. It will include widespread travel restrictions, and last for an indefinite period in the first instance. Let's hope we can welcome members to our lovely sites in Wales asap. Hope everyone has a safe Christmas where ever you are in UK.

The latest that I read on BBC news says Wales is in tier 4 (lockdown) from midnight but we can meet on Christmas day only. There may be more of course.
