The C19 test you take with you is £29 so competitively priced if that's what you want to do.

Has anyone been stopped returning to the UK without having booked 2 & 8 day test and having the references on the Locator form?

You can't complete the PL form without a code and certainly with Eurotunnel you have to download it to their site to get through the border checks.
You only need to book 1 test to get a code so if you choose a cheap day 2 test only you will get you through.
It's not the right thing to do but you will be able to complete the form.

If it's eurotunnel you'll likely not be allowed to travel if the tests are not booked or the locator form completed.

Not sure on the other crossings and how they are checking etc.

What's the cheapest way to book the day 2/8 tests (is day 8 still required)?

Thanks for that tip, I didn't realise you could do that

Save me venturing into town before returning home and as you say at £29 it's not badly priced either

Day 8 not required if double jabbed, this is from gvmt website:

France from Sunday 8 August
If you arrive in England from 4am Sunday 8 August, and you are fully vaccinated in the UK, USA or Europe, you will not need to:

quarantine on arrival in England
take a day 8 Covid-19 test
You must still book and take a day 2 Covid-19 test.

Cool, we will finally get to the farm lake on the 4th Sept now.
We are going by euro tunnel, has anyone risked taking food over for their trip and been stopped etc ?

Bait wise the lake supplies it so will be safe on that front.

Good luck to all those who can now finally get out there, with no restrictions on way home 🙌...

You can buy food in France believe it or not. And unlike much of the UK supermarket shelves are fully stocked😂😂😂😂 But on a more serious note I wouldn't have thought a few packets of bacon and sausage will get you a night in the cells.

Has anyone got the c19 test to take to France for the return, the government site says tests must not be purchased in the uk to test on return but on the c19 website it says theirs are approved all overly complicated and contradictory.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
