I saw the Spanish news last night.

I believe that It stated that 2 people are allowed to travel in cars in cars now. Is this true?

Thanks for the reply.

On reflection they did say Trabajo, which I believe is work.

It is just sad that my wife is not able to go further than a small walk.

Yes it is only 1 person unless you are carrying a disabled person and then only 1 of you allowed in the shops.  And you have to have a valid reason (doctors etc) for carrying the extra body. The police are stopping and fining people who break the rules.  They were outside mercadona when I went out the other. 

As  you so rightly say 2 people are allowed if going about necessary work.

Just been on the news from today two people can now travel in a car as long as the passenger sits in the back, but only one can go in the supermarket

Do we really need your nasty questions/opinion?

This post started, "

TerryW"

The answer is yes, both must wear masks and the pasanger must sit as far behind the driver as possible and there must be a valid reason for the second person to be out.

In my interpretation of the "update" nothing as changed, it as just been clarified.

No i had not had a drink.

You are allowed your opinion but your opinion is not fact. 

My answer is an interpretation from the Spanish. Please note I did not use the word translate because all these new laws seem very ambiguous. 

Question, how long have you been a member of the spelling police?

I assume this was directed to me?

"Another 'start up business' that won't be around for long due to the attitude of the staff/ owner..... "

I started my very successful Spanish business back in 1992.  

"Chauvinist as well"? Please explain? Not going to scroll back but I thing I changed her to person. Is that chauvinistic? That is how it is writen  to in the law.

No, only one person, who must carry the reason for breaking lockdown, I stopped and you say you are going shopping then when you have finished shopping keep the receipt, this because some people still think like back in thexUK, you can just go where you want and say what you want, for everyone's sakes stay indoors.

If travelling back to the u k bay car, you must state your destination and that the reason is because of the request of the British Government to return back to your home country and you will stay there, travell for a holiday  is not allowed, obviously more than 1 person in the car if returning back to the UK, but, a heavy fine if you return or prison. Safe rules for everyone.
