Just read a report in The Times saying that France is coming off the Amber plus status and will be just Amber from 4.00am on Sunday. It describes how travellers will not have to quarantine for ten days. We are on the last day of our quarantine and are awaiting the required negative test result email. Good news for others and us next trip. So both your day 8 tests activated ok then ? Yes, JD, they activated correctly on Monday and posted in the local Priority box. Then the wait! Today is day eleven and no result has arrived. I phoned them and got to talk to someone within two minutes. She checked progress and found my wife’s package arrived yesterday and to expect her result today. My package has not yet arrived and she said that it would probably get there today and to expect a result tomorrow. Did anyone phone you during your extended period in quarantine? It’s been a total waste of time, money and resources.

Thanks for that. I hope they just give up but in our case maybe the test results will turn up and finish it off. If the new conditions remain in place we may get a less expensive and troublesome trip in September.

If your travelling from France to the UK you will need a negative covid test done 72 hours before you depart and a day 2 test booked and entered on the passenger locator form. The published rules are to England not to all the UK. That also assumes you have proof you were fully vaccinated at least 14 days before you travel.
