Sailed on the 19.45 Douglas to heysham 24/4, Saturday total numbers.. 8 cars 1 motorcycle , 9 foot passengers must put a dent in the averages

Arkell v Pressdram 1971 perhaps the best response to threatening letters from solicitors for uncovering 'alleged' malpractice

Many join unions for the support provide should the shit hit the fan …..back up of good lawyers at no cost other than membership dues

They need the Embraer for the Gatwick route, Gatwick imposed a minimum seat criteria , the Atr is too small

That would suggest customs controls for the Dublin in bound at ronaldsway........or just a telephone to declare goods with the occasional visit by customs ?

Will that just be freight that is checked or will passengers be subject to customs checks ?

The lay-by Lills as they were known....

Currently on the fast boat,still no sailed for Liverpool. getting passenger charter leaflet from office at sea terminal ‘difficult’ steam packet do not issue vouchers for refreshments due to delay, you have to buy and then claim back this seems to be at odds with both passenger charter and eu regulations

If traveliing from uk ....... Chidlren over 12 no longer need to be vaccinated to enter Spain. Adults must be double jabbed if second jab is over 270 'old' on date of arrival booster needed. Spanish health form easy to fill in .....can fill in a single form for a family saves time entering similar details for each traveller as per the uk form, random checks at borders to ensure vaccination criteria met

WhEn I travel to see friends in the RoI using the IoM -Dub route I need to show my passport to enter the Republic, but when travelling via Bfs I can cross the Irish Land Boundary without showing any Id if the Iom government are worried about the importation of drugs and consequent exportation of cash then they have little chance of stopping the movement. How much commercial traffic is searched ‘rummaged at the border ....I doubt if they have the powers to do so. Put a few dirty boxes into a groupage load, wait a week and then send a numpty to collect said boxes from the carrier.

Will passengers/crew of private aircraft be checked on landing? Will all pleasure craft arriving be checked? Will all crew of commercial shipping be checked? will passports be scanned?

Was in Bosnia for operation grapple ................man’s inhumanity to man........more to tell ....but too difficult

looked at it, but we always carry letters showing proof of two previous jabs with us .............and given where we were jabbed is a talking point which tests my Spanish

but our booster jab is shown as 1of 1, caused much confusion when my wife had to show qr code for her aqua classes

currently in Spain but different experience to John Not had any requset for a QR code other than when my wife went to her aquarobics class a last week ............but she was already a member and had been going to the class for some time. Had to fill in contact details at a restaurant last week ........NIE number/passport number/ name and phone number .......but only after we had ordered and started on the wine ! masks in the usual places ...shops, taxis, public transport, about 50/50 on the streets where people cannot distance % of space taken up in in side largerly ignored in bars and most restaurants...............no enforcement of the rules by Policia Local, Guardia largely absent council setting up for NYE in local square !
