"Just come home from another Maclennans charity event. They sure know how to put an evening together. Well done to the live entertainment who gave their time for a worthy cause. ![]() Thanks for coming. It was a fantastic night. Roll on the tourists now. So we can start on our plans. | |||
"Just come home from another Maclennans charity event. They sure know how to put an evening together. Well done to the live entertainment who gave their time for a worthy cause. ![]() I hear the EU have agreed to let in UK tourist with complete vaccinations, but now need to devise a system to check the validity of this status. They may require PCR tests regardless until a system is in place. They are hinting at some kind of announcement tomorrow... | |||

But i don’t do 90% of what i did. before. I‘m fed up with the same old faces, calling me a lair and that I don’t know what I’m talking about... and having cheap digs. | |||
"Yeah looks like we will get more info on it tomorrow. Sounds like good things are about to happen. Please keep everyone updated, we're all desperate to hear as soon as possible ![]() For every glass half full, there's a glass half empty. As you know, I've expressed my scepticism, more so last year, in the early stages of the pandemic but things have definitely turned a corner(albeit a lot slower than anyone could have predicted) and I'm optimistic, to the extent that we've gone ahead and arranged 3 trips back to GC. ![]() | |||

"So are we good to go? Northern Ireland is permitting travel from 24th.....but when returning from a Green List country, you are required to have tests on day 2 and day 8, following your return...only 1 of which will be free. Different to England....why? ![]() Why does anyone who has had two vaccinations need a test at all? It contradicts the whole idea of vaccinations in the first place. My understanding is tests for the vaccinated are just a stopgap until a system is in place. | |||

Different to England....why? ![]() Because the vaccine isn’t 100% and no one wants new variants flying into their country. Plus the vaccine doesn’t stop you getting or transmitting the virus. A PCR test is the best way to make sure you’re virus free. | |||

Different to England....why? ![]() Vaccinations aren't 100% effective. But PCR tests aren't either. The argument for variants holds true for any new virus. On those grounds non essential travel should be permanently banned. Vaccinations are the best solution we're going to get. So either the world needs to accept them as sufficient or forever be stuck with what we have now. | |||

"Pepe Charingo's after a late night in the Cita. ![]() Haha love Chiringo’s it’s the Shirley Kebab House of PDI. They do a great cortado or leche leche largo for a caffeine kick with some cheap churros. Sultan Kebap is our guilty pleasure. There’s a few of them but we usually head to the one near the Irish Bar and Chinawhite in the Kasbah. Mixed meat kebap, chips and a drink for €7! Happy days! | |||

Different to England....why? ![]() ![]() Since the end of the State of Alarm the decline in infection rates has ceased throughout the whole of Spain. Here in the Canaries we have a situation where GC is doing really well with curbing infections but Tenerife is spoiling that data. Today for example there were 99 cases in Tenerife compared with 22 in GC. The entire municipality in which PDI is located has just 4 active cases. While infection rates are somewhat higher, hospitalisations and Covid-19 related deaths are on the decrease. As for vaccinations we have now hit the milestone of 50% target population having their first dose. The other day we got over 27 000 jabs done in one day. Vaccinations are no longer prioritised which speeds things up. It seems we are headed for 70% vaccination of target population by mid July. | |||

Infection rate up but(so far as I know) many less hospitalised....that has to be a positive. So impatient for it all to be over....as much as it ever will be over. | |||

Booked in there for dinner tomorrow ![]() | |||

"But back to the good news. Lbc today reporting uk gov looking at allowing double dosed people to travel internatiknally to amber countries without return quarantine.

"But back to the good news. Lbc today reporting uk gov looking at allowing double dosed people to travel internatiknally to amber countries without return quarantine. So as long as the islands don t turn red . Pdi here we come ??" I believe this may make the people currently not wishing to vaccinate rethink their perspective. All vaxxed up here and counting down the days. I even kinda started packing earlier, well, I wrote a list, that counts right? | |||
