Having recently shared photos of Portugal, thought swallows in our barn might make a change. No apologies for colour, hand-held with shutter speed of 1/25, no flash as don`t want to frighten the babies.

Lovely, how do you get on flying with lung conditions as I am considering going away but haven't flown since being diagnosed with bronchiectasis asthma and emphysema 8yrs ago but consultant has said that I am OK to right now .

My wife is the one with Bronch and last time she flew France - UK, she was on a plane where everyone seemed to be coughing and sneezing. Result serious infection that took a long time to clear up and we think has left semi-permanent damage. So, she has no wish to fly, and I have to agree. You can have the best filters in the world but 180 people in small confined space could cause problems. So, we now drive to UK. We used to do it easily in the day but now take an overnight stop and leisurely drive to Dieppe, for 18:00 crossing. Obviously if you want to go to USA for example, you don1t have much choice. Whichever you choose, take care, take a mask and enjoy. Chris.

Wow my thoughts on this reply is what scares me into not flying , maybe Spain by driving down is a better option . We have been cruising until pandemic set in and butlins lol.I definitely need a rethink on flying. Thanks very much for your help 👍

Just make sure that the driving down is part of the holiday. You could of course sail to Santander and cut out a long drive.
