Don't say that 😕0

Testing positive after 10 days is irrelevant thankfully - the isolation period remains at 10 days remember but can now be shortened to as low as 5 only with negative tests on days 5 & 6 - if those tests are still positive on day 11 you’re finished isolation regardless (but would be well advised to maintain social distancing from others, and avoid vulnerable folk completely).Hopefully you will both be clear in not too many extra days over the 5 though RS! 🤞🏼🎉 MORTGAGE FREE (First time!) 30/09/2016 🎉 And now we go again…New mortgage taken 01/09/23 🏡
