My parents came back from their house there a couple weeks ago (they did their full two weeks and not long out of isolation)- glad they got back when they did. Can’t imagine going back to needing a note to leave the house (not that we ever went that strict)

But the French do excel at administrative bureaucracy. Not sure I’d be too concerned about needing to have a pre-filled form. A bit like those honesty parking clock things in the Lake District. |

Avoided the news all week but talking to a colleague in Lanarkshire she said they are going into T4 from Monday. Looks inevitable for the masses given France and Germany have announced another full lockdown. See I avoid the news for my mental health but miss what I probably need to know. |

gg - I limit my media exposure. BBC website and C4 news seems to be enough to keep me informed enough to look up anything I want to know more about whilst managing my stress levels.
