Hi I don’t regard myself as stupid but I really am having trouble understanding the latest restrictions! 

Firstly and perhaps most importantly are the travel restrictions relating to your immediate area ( ie in our case Oria) or Provence, Almeria or indeed Andalusia? 

We had planned to go to friends for dinner tonight but I now think that’s not permitted. Is that correct?

Any help would be appreciated! Confused.

you can travel in the area of Almeria but you are not allowed to go to a friends house for a meeting.  You can meet up to 6 people outside or 4 inside a bar or cafe.  This is because they feel that the closeness of family gathering leads to less social distancing and more chance of spreading the virus.

I understand travel, unless it’s absolutely essential from the uk abroad is banned. You shouldn’t be coming here unless it’s essential. We’re in a provincial lockdown until at least 9th April and the state of alarm is still in place until at least 9th May. To get back to the uk you will need a PCR test and will need to quarantine for 10 days once you’re back in the uk and buy a test pack for day 2 and 8. I wouldn’t bother until the restrictions have finished. In fact you shouldn’t bother really.

Yes I’m fairly sure you’d be fine but you may want permission from your neighbours to stroke their llama! 😂😂
