By the way, welcome back after almost 16 years away Chalmondley Warner.

  We're in the same boat. I Have a one year old and it's my parents only grandchild. They've fortunately managed to come over 3 times in the last year, but the last time was in summer and the thought that they will have to wait again until next summer is killing them.   At the moment quarantining is required in both countries. You can in principle quarantine in the UK with your family and then on the 5th day you can take a covid test in order to be released early from quarantine under the new "test to release" scheme. You would then have to do exactly the same when returning to Germany. I have been heavily considering this.   But now with the tier 2 rules I am confused too. A support bubble between two families does not seem possible. But I don't know if being able to isolate with with your family (first link) trumps this.   It's a fucking shit year.

  Cheers. That is indeed good advice for the future. However, in this case, the new zone rulings don't come in to effect until midnight tomorrow so no testing was required. It's all about time of entry. It seems as long as the return flight is still on then there's no problem.

  Anyone got any info about this? My parents are literally checking in now and it's just been added to the risk list. I can't find any info about what to do if an area you have visited gets classed a risk area after you are already back in Germany.

I am going through something similar to Rob. My parents are due to come to Munich this weekend (Thur-Tues). Their region of England is not currently classed a risk area by the RKI and so, for the moment, we're sticking to the plan. Airport pick up - Our house for the whole time - Airport drop off. But what happens if their region of England gets classed as a risk area once they are already here? Will they be allowed back to the airport on Tuesday to go back home. I can't seem to find that info.

Hahahahahaha. Oh I hope it's true. I hope he suffers hard and this fat, narcissistic, disgusting cunt dies a long painful death. And that his whole sociopath family inherit nothing more than his massive debts and a prison sentence or three. It really couldn't have happened to a nicer person.
