From all the pictures, looks like he’s with Kalvin, Tyler Roberts and a couple of the others.

There are loads of pictures of the more senior members of the squad together on holiday with their partners, not sure where they are though.

Suppose that's the risk of travelling the rules can change at any stage for any country.
Should have all gone to Bridlington :D

Got to feel for them though, young lads, just become millionaires, going abroad to celebrate winning the league which might never happen again in their lifetimes and this happens.

There are a few suggestions that the club may insist they come home in the next couple of days, so they can serve their ‘isolation time’ which would just about take them up to the time when training starts again.

We’ve a quandary it’s our silver wedding anniversary this week & we were going to have the girls, their husbands & grandkids round for an Indian. Not sure what to do now as we planned having the meal in the garden but people are going to want use of the loo.

Agree BB it's tough on them but these really are unprecedented times. On a positive not they said on the news that as infections are low on the Islands they are trying to have different rules to mainland Spain. This could change by day.

NW, If you decide to go ahead all you can do is minimise the risk. Follow some of the guidelines that cafe's are going by such as provide a hand sanitizer and insist people use it. Also Paper towels in the Loo for when people was their hands.

Can people bring their own garden furniture, we did that with the neighbours the other week and it worked well.

Still none of us can advise for each other its all about how you feel yourself. None of us know how long this is going to last and I'm much in the mindset its all about living with it, take what precautions you possibly can but its going on too long to put life totally on hold.

Interesting question.

Later this year we are supposed to be going to Italy for and holiday which was transferred from March.

If the tour goes ahead and the rules change while we are away (like it did with Spain) and we have to Quarantine on our return how do we do it initially ?

We are flying from Gatwick and planning to go down on the train. So when travelling back north how can we do it when sharing a train with others ?

I've nothing against the rule but not sure how its possible until you actually get to your own home.

I think you would be fine using the train with masks etc. It would be hard to impose any fine if things changed whilst away. Well I believe so and I would've wished you well if i'd have been policing today.

Some information here SW.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/explainers-52544307

What are the quarantine rules?

Travellers from affected countries - including UK nationals - are asked to provide an address where they will self-isolate for 14 days. They can be fined £100 for failing to fill in a form with these details.

One in five eligible passengers will be called or texted to check they are following the rules.

People who do not self-isolate can be fined up to £1,000 in England, Wales and Northern Ireland and those returning to Scotland could be fined £480, with fines up to £5,000 for persistent offenders.

Passengers should drive in their own car to their destination, where possible. If they don't provide an address, the government will arrange accommodation at the traveller's expense.

Once at their destination, they must not use public transport or taxis during the quarantine period. They must also not go to work, school, or public areas, or have visitors except for essential support.

Not are they allowed to go out to buy food, or other essentials, if they can rely on others.

People returning from overseas will not be automatically eligible for statutory sick pay during this period, unless they meet the required conditions - for example displaying coronavirus symptoms.
