The impediments to ever be able to again travel seem to be increasing by the day . New strains of the virus pop up almost daily, prompting the question, are we ever to be over it. Even though my country is on the UK green list , there is as yet no timetable to again allow travel by the NZ government , our border remaining shut tight for the foreseeable future. Were travel possible , the staycation holiday for UK residents has blossomed, with hire companies seemingly booked out for the next 2 years . Bucket list dreams fast being poured down the drain ?
