Piping in on the conversation here @crucialweb and @dandays - I was in UK last year two, got locked down within 2 days of arriving in country. My husband's English, his fam is in Somerset. I wonder what would have happened if I'd overstayed my visa - I'm not sure, I did live there along time about 15 years ago (six years). We stayed 3 months and then got out on an Emirates flight in June, got home to Australia to two weeks HELL quarantine in Melbourne a week before they made people pay for it. Now, in many ways, I'd rather be in the UK. Funny, I was in UK for Brexit vote too. I'm beginning to think it's me - lol.
We're so twisted what to think. I don't know if you caught the previous part of this conversation but Pura and I got locked down in UK for 7 (seven) months. Seven. My passport expired... couldn't loop hole through the spousal residency clause in England Cuz they paused it due to covid, what a mess!
Nobody knew what to expect when we left Heathrow, nobody could tell us what CDC in Florida would be like. England's like "get out!" The airlines weren't leaving the ground so I'm "I can't!" Didn't know what they would do to us in Florida.
Had the whole 777 to ourselves across the Atlantic. That was nice. Landed in Florida and nothing happened. Even took our national security pictures in a face mask. Uber asked us to remove our masks, all the gyms, salons, restaurants were open like nothing ever happened.
Fast forward to now, 1 year later, Everything is still wide open here; amusement parks, concert venues, etc. Thought we'd be outta by now. So much for that!
