Christmas mixing and Tiers

[meow1989]

I know we are all just guessing at the moment, but ..

I get that its likely we are allowed to mix 3 households total over the 5 days, but doesn't that become moot if your area is tier 1? Because in tier 1 you can mix up to 6 households technically (one from each). Do you think they will have the forethought to clarify this ir will it be more interpreting the rules as you go? (Fwiw I will follow whatever the guidance is, I'm not looking for loophole just curious as to how this would work)

This is the link

This is the paragraph;

*you can only meet your Christmas bubble in private homes or in your garden, places of worship, or public outdoor spaces

So yes, perhaps you can walk with your bubble together by the looks of it, I had interpreted public outdoor spaces as parks etc. but actually a pavement/track/local wood probably applies too?

The link was posted upthread, it is really helpful.

London in tier 2! We all know why that is, this is lockdown under a different name, Boris and Hancock cannot justify this, they are scum.

Will hotels and restaurants be open during the 5 day period in tier 3?

dont thinnk theres any tier restrictgions over the xmas hiatus but maybe someone else will correct me

actually no that doesnt sound right there will be some sort of retrisction in resturants

@GabsALot from the link

*you can continue to meet people who are not in your Christmas bubble outside your home according to the rules in the tier where you are staying

*You can continue to meet people who are not in your Christmas bubble outside your home according to the rules in the tier you are staying in.

*Once at your destination, you should follow the rules in that tier.

Tier rules will be in place during Christmas
