Covid-19 requirements
At the moment government guidelines require you to wear a face mask when you go to shops or get public transport. There can be fines given for breach of these rules just to give you a heads up. Also there is currently a 10pm curfew on pubs and restaurants so you may want to try and get everything done before than as they tend to start asking people to leave.
Any of the above is subject to change and I'll try and keep it updated but apologies if I forget.
