So I have read the document but my brain is fried so any input welcome.

We would love to see MIL in the first week of the Easter Hols she hasn't seen the kids since the summer and we were in a high tier for most of the autumn so half term and Xmas were out too- this is the only time we have off so can't go after the 12th. She lives too far to meet half way... we are talking a whole days travel.

I think if we make a support bubble with her we could go down and stay on the 3rd of April for Easter weekend. We aren't in any other support bubbles although we have a childcare one with my parents who are local. She is a single adult house hold and does have a bubble with my BIL but he isn't local to her so she could not see him for 10 days plus before hand. MIL and myself have both been vaccinated, DH probably will have been by then.. That is within rules isn't it? I know stay local might be guidance still but as far as I'm aware it won't be a rule?

Please no haters I'm a front line key worker who has been in the whole time and has followed rules to the letter even through lengthy local lockdown. Just after input from people whose brains aren't fried!

If she changes her support bubble to you then yes you can do that. She’d have to not see her current bubble for 10 days before and she’s not supposed to keep switching bubbles so she’d have to stick with you really.

Yes, that's allowed

yeah @Racoonworld since the being able to see someone outside rule came in she's only been seeing him every month or so so it wouldn't be a chopping and changing scenario.

As long as she has the gap between bubbles this has never been against the law. And even the guidelines allowed you to travel to see a support bubble.

In which case yes, it’s allowed. And you can travel to see your support bubble so you’ll be fine to go at Easter.
