Their results at the end of July will no doubt heavily influence when our borders will open to outsiders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even more so now Google have got everything mapped. Except Google are no way near up to date. A lot of the mapping and related Earth seems many years out of date with a lot of new development not showing (Street View dates to 2010 for example). For planning purposes everything has to be up to date before the architects get to it. Where do you think they get their data from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bearing in mind that we are only talking about changes here (mapping having been done since the Vikings) - If 5 mapping officers went to work at 9am tomorrow, by 12 am would 15 man hours of mapping changes have occurred? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. And any changes, for example the new estates, are drawn by the developers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dog's Dangly Bits Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 Just now, Golfer said: Won’t really matter when we follow Jersey in reopening borders That isn't going to work very well in practice here. The next stage is for anyone to travel but have to self isolate (or isolate your entire household and all that involves) which is unworkable really.

Jersey have been idiotic through the pandemic. Guernsey have done very well, like us. I am looking forward to going back to Guernsey in a couple of months for a break. Great place. I have family in Jersey. They can wait a few more months. Borders with Ireland will be open before UK. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly will, do everyone who wants could just get ferry or plane to U.K. without restrictions. i would also expect Jersey/ Guernsey to allow ferry between them soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
