So what do we do?

[icedaisy]

We are farming family, Scotland.

We have two houses, next door. Four in one, three in mine plus I'm pregnant.

Right from the start we have cross isolated, we work together and share vehicles etc.

Am I correct in saying that we cannot do this anymore? Like there would be seven of us total for lunch etc.

Nobody else comes in to the farm save for deliveries etc.

Or do we count as one household? Technically there is an adjoining door but we don't use it.

I've seen people say others were making up that they has large households etc and I don't want to do that but we genuinely do all live and work here.

You can continue to work together as work related gatherings are exempt. A household for the purposes of Covid means sharing a kitchen or bathroom so you don't qualify under that exemption for non related gatherings so the only time you should meet all together is for work.

I doubt anybody is going to be going to a rural farm in Scotland to count heads...

Thank you both.

Oh I know they won't count heads but I'm just thinking aloud.

It's ok it's my fault I misunderstood. Was reading a thread but it was England. We can continue as normal because two of the kids are under 12. Mother in law can't come for lunch/what are you all doing meeting though!!

Sorry to bother people!

Honestly, no one is going to be checking up on you anyway.

Open the middle door, et voilà one household.

If I was in your situation, I’d count us all as one household to be honest. Working together, living in close proximity with presumably no other close neighbours. I think most people in your shoes would.

Yes I'm a total over thinker and get carried away. Was just thinking technically were we wrong, but OK as kids don't count.

And yes, nobody will care, neighbours about three miles.
