    Spain is already saying they are going to allow Germany and France tourist in soon, but no mention of the UK. Spain will only allow brits in when the 2 week quarantine has been stopped and that other criteria has been met. Some areas Madrid, Barcelona and a few other locations are still in full...

That's if my vote, and the other 3 members of my family, manage...

So that SISU doesn't come up with 'our only option is some FREE land outside Wolverhampton':yawn: However I...
