Robbie, please do not be put off by the few that we all know are nasty pieces of work, the positive side of the Forum is that you will find plenty of others who will give good accurate advice.

I know,and will not leave this time. You and your family will be back here before you know it.  On our plus side, we are just one house away from the communal pool,so we will have a delightfully quiet summer!! Adios Michael.

Sometimes shouty capitals are needed for those who are hard of hearing when it comes to the truth.

Sorry, what was that......

Please refer to my previous post where I suggest that as this is obviously an exceptional circumstance that you obtain a note written in Spanish to explain this to any Guardia.

Gracias.  That is definitely worth looking into. Appreciated.

I think you have me mixed up with someone else, I have gone no where and am happily resident here in Spain.

Missing the point here?   My husband drives,I don’t.  I am unable to walk,with Arthritis in both feet. He would take me to the shop,wait in the car,then both return home. 

Simple solution

1.  get taxi there

2.  Do shopping

3.  Get taxi home

=   you get some excercise, you also get the essentials you need.

2 Happy bunnies, 🐰🐇  excercise done,  ✅

shopping done and problem solved ✔💯

Husband would be going from house,and back again,without leaving the car. No way could he infect anyone in those circumstances. Why pay 15 euros for a cab? No prob,I won't be going anywhere till LD is finished. Simps!!!

Just an update, had my weekly solo trip to Consum this morning and notice a Police car driving round the supermarket car park checking if cars had only one person, good to see and hopefully anyone breaking the lockdown conditions were duly fined.

So in that case, what is the point of two people going? 

Maybe one can't drive the other can't shop . Happens!!
