Are they going to have road blocks at the Welsh border? How many roads would that be?

[Holly Goodhead]

I don't know, don't think they could hope to do it anyway, the garage is in England where Bob is, and the farm is in Wales.

But I can't see a Police border outpost on the mountain road, not just yet anyway

And so far Lady-J has not been asked to Police one.

They may try some police stops on big roads into Wales, but there are so many ways round that if you know them.

Where we are there are no cases at all, and it's very low for Hereford, But Bob wont go out much, comes up to the Farm, sometimes but that is about all.
