Air bridges to be negotiated to enable us to go on foreign holidays by July 4
Tourists would have to abide by the rules on social distancing in the country they travel to

Families could be free to go on foreign holidays from July 4 under plans being drawn up by ministers.

Boris Johnson is expected to announce on June 29 that deals have been put in place for so-called air bridges with a “small number” of countries with low levels of coronavirus.

It would mean tourists being able to go on holiday without having to spend 14 days in quarantine when they return.

Foreign tourists would also be able to come to the UK without having to self-isolate on arrival.

Microsoft promises to fix Windows 10 printer problem

No date for a fix has been set but the company said it was “working on a resolution” and would provide an update as soon as possible.

Until Microsoft issues a fix, the only reliable way around the issue is to temporarily uninstall last week’s updates.

If you experience this printer/printing problem;

I had 3 PCs suffer printer issues following recent update.
In each case using Device Manager to uninstall the printer driver, then re-installing from existing drivers, solved the issue

Might help someone

If pretty beaches are your thing, visit Myrtos Beach too. Bear in mind this beach is made up of round, dazzling white pebbles so not much fun if you go bare foot.

A grim five years for Greek tourism

Greece may not repeat the tourism arrivals and revenues record of 2019 before 2025, according to an Ernst & Young report on the effects of the pandemic on Greek tourism, heralding a five-year crisis for the sector. This year alone the local industry is set to lose about 10 billion euros, it said.
