Why am I so stupid?

I have to check everything because I literally don't understand anything.

I'm in T2, I want to book an AirBnB for the weekend of the 11th (13m away so same tier).

Can I do this? AirBnB will let me book but then how is a weekend away essential?

The tiers seem to be more about limiting contact with other people, rather than on what is essential or not. This makes a lot of sense - you wont be transmitting the virus any more by spending a weekend with your immediate family in an airbnb, compared to spending a weekend with your immediate family at home. Going in a car doesn't spread the virus if you're not in touch with other people.

Thanks. See, that makes perfect sense. I can not even make simple decisions since this all started!!!

Basically things that are allowed to be open in your area are allowed to be used by you, as long as you use them within the guidelines about who you're allowed to be with while you're using them!

As long as the air BnB is in Tier 2 or 1, you can go there. If it is in Tier 3, it shouldn't be open.

If you live in Tier 1 or 2, you are fine to travel. If you live in Tier 3, the guidelines ask that you don't travel, but there isn't actually a law prohibiting it at this point.

Ok I've managed to get my tiny brain around this. Have seen some in T3 open though, how very naughty!

I've got a weekend away booked next weekend, we're in tier 2 and so is the apartment. It's a couple of hundred miles away but we're going as we'll lose the money of we don't.
