"I am getting so confused about what thread say what..and where...will need a holiday to get me kind straight trying to unravel who says what on which thread.." My understanding is that the information given was a quote directly made from the Canarian Weekly. As a resident I read it all the time and was also confused because they posted rules applicable to Tenerife only without specifically stating such. One has to read other artices that refer to the spike in Tenerife which has not occurred in GC. There's another article which specifies the rules for Tenerife only. Unfortunately the statements are made by the Canarian Authorities which makes the restrictions seem applicable to the entire Archipelago. For the record Tenerife is red on the EU traffic light system whilst GC is green. These are very heavily concentrated in Las Palmas. | |||

"One of the major problems I think we all have, is that information changes so often, and rules can vary. The canaries have had different rules to mainland Spain so often as well. I mean, even mainland Spain, the curfew is 11-6 in some areas but because the government have allowed an hour deviation here, we have the valencian province midnight til 6. Many regions are closing bars at 10-10.30 for an 11pm curfew, but here in benidorm bars can ope til midnight with no new customers after 11. If I’m in a bar at 11:30 I can still buy a drink as long as I’m off their premises before midnight. We usually leave around 10 to as We’re only a few minutes walk from our preferred local. Had I stated in my original post this was for my region, the confusion may have been avoided so apologies for that. Hope you’re all well x" Bless you,I'm sorry your thread has been hijacked.
