Does that mean you can't leave and sail away.

Here in Lagos, we have been advised that the lifting bridge will remain shut TFN so all boats with a reasonable air drought won't be going anywhere.

So you can't go sailing for a day alone. Or fishing for a day alone. And you'll stay ashore, go shopping for food, come into contact with others and pickup the virus.
I say again, the worlds gone mad.

Over 65s are limited to shopping in the first 2 hours that the shop is open so no more layins for the oldies

Canarian marinas have been shut for a week. No movements permitted at all. This is being actively policed. No appeal, just fines!

Not the case around here, we've been out shopping this morning, Lidl and Continente, just normal spaced out queue for everyone, one out, one in. A couple of supermarkets are reserving the first 2 hours for us wrinklies but I prefer to stay in my pit until a reasonable hour. Those who intended using the lock down for decorating are disappointed, DIY stores closed - thankfully

Are the buses and trains still running?

Yes buses are free. Enter by the rear doors - well away from the driver.
No cases reported west of Portimao so with any luck Lagos will stay clean.??

Wonder how long before it follows Spain. Late start but still an exponential curve, fingers crossed the early stay at home will keep the curve lower. I might not see the boat for a while.....

Anyone know if non Portuguese people can still fly in to Faro with the european restrictions?
Irish passport which might get round that, but getting back down to Bruce's seems to be less likely as time goes on, suspect they might not be so welcoming at the airport. Anyone know anything?
Edit flight radar still showing quite a few coming in, might be hope for a little while yet...

Faro arrivals board is still showing flights from the UK. We have a flight out of Lisbon (I hope) tomorrow with Ryanair, the arrivals board still showing flights from London but not it appears from regional airports. Ryanair asked us to change flights from later date as they said route would most likely close tomorrow midnight. Easy train trip from Lisbon or Porto to Faro if you can't find Faro flight. Don't try to come via Spain.

Just been on national news, 16 people have been arrested for civil disobedience for breaking lock-down rules, two of them in Faro.
