Beer gardens reopened on Monday - along with hairdressers and barbers, for the first time since social-distancing measures were brought in at the end of March. As the levels of virus spreading through the community have reduced, the Welsh Government has moved to lift more restrictions, including introducing "extended households". What is an extended household? An extended household is the how the Welsh Government has introduced what is known in England, Scotland and Northern Ireland as "support bubbles" - an idea first introduced in New Zealand. It is designed to help families reunite and help support those with care needs. A household means a group of the same people all sharing the same home. It could be a family living together, flatmates in the same property, or even individuals renting rooms in the same house. There is no restriction on the number of people in a household - as long as they are always the same people. An extended household is when two of those households come together as one. For example, two grandparents could agree to become part of an extended household with their daughter and her partner and children. The two households could then visit each other as much as they wish, go indoors, and even stay overnight. Where's the catch? There are restrictions - and it could mean some tough choices for individuals. The main rule is this: Once you join an extended household - you cannot join another. If it is our grandparents enjoying Sunday lunch with their daughter and grandchildren at the family home, those same grandparents cannot then decide they want to join with another family member next week. They cannot decide they are ditching the daughter for their favourite son. Once you are in a extended household, there is no swapping members - you have to stick with your original choice. And a word of warning: If one person in your extended household develops Covid-19 symptoms, every member of that extended household will be asked to self-isolate. What if we share custody of a child? There are always exceptions to the rule - and this is one of them. If your child divides their time between two homes they can be a member of extended families in both homes. But I live in a shared house? In this case, where several people are renting separate rooms in a single property they do not have to form a single household themselves - and they can join other extended households. Of course, where you may be sharing bathrooms and kitchens in a multiple-occupancy house, the Welsh Government points out it will increase the risk of spreading coronavirus - so they suggest have a good think and conversations with your housemates first. Is there a limit to the number of people in extended households? No, there is no limit. But again, you cannot swap people in or out. Once they are in, they are in. I am in an extended household. Who else can I meet - and where? No more than two households can get together - and then they have to meet outside. It is exactly the same for extended households. Two extended households can meet - but they have to meet outside, and the two groups should also observe social-distancing rules. Two families - our grandparents and their son or daughter, for example, who are in a single extended household - can meet another extended family household - perhaps their other son or daughter and their in-laws who have decided to bubble together. But it must be outdoors. Is there a limit on the number of people in extended households getting together? As long as it is only two extended households coming together, there is no limit on numbers of people - as there is no limit on the size of a single extended household. Again, it has to be outside, and separate households should remain socially distanced. So yes, if you want to have a barbecue with your extended household and your neighbour's extended household you can - if you want. Can I meet more than one extended household at a time? No, you cannot. Only two households can come together at once. Your neighbour's friends cannot tag along to that barbecue in the back garden - sorry. Could I meet my friends in the pub then instead? You cannot meet in the pub just yet - indoor cafes, bars and restaurants in Wales remain closed until 3 August. But the same cannot be said for pub beer gardens. Outdoor parts of pubs and restaurants could open in Wales from 13 July. The latest regulations allow gatherings of "no more than 30 persons" - as long as it has been organised by: Of course, all those groups also have to meet strict health and safety rules before they can open their doors to you and your mates. Don't expect it to be a "normal" pint out. What else can I do? If it is not a beer or a meal you are after there are now plenty more things you can do in your extended household. Self-contained holiday accommodation is open for business and bookings across Wales, with all travel restrictions lifted. While they may be thinking about some sun worshipping - with Welsh weather, they may need a prayer or two. And you'd be in luck there too - as faith leaders are also preparing to welcome back congregations from this week. Fun in the sun Outdoor exercise classes, team games such as cricket and sports clubs can meet again. From Monday 20 July, there will be some playground relief for your youngsters during the summer holidays as they are allowed to reopen. Also opening on Monday are community centres, outdoor gyms, and funfairs. The great outdoors beckon on 25 July when campsites will be allowed to reopen. Stay indoors? On 27 July, cinemas, museums and galleries in Wales will be allowed to open their doors once more. You will also be able to get a beauty salon pamper - and if you've the urge for ink, tattoo parlours are opening again. And finally... A reminder from the First Minister Mark Drakeford himself: "We could find our hard work quickly undone unless we all go on playing our part, every day, and in every way we can, to keep Wales safe. "It is not over. Coronavirus is still here in Wales - and in the absence of a vaccine, it could be with us for some time yet."
As lockdown restrictions continue to be eased in Wales, many are asking what they can - and cannot do - under the latest rules and guidance.

The MLitt has been developed by the University of the Highlands and Islands' Centre for Nordic Studies, which is based on the Northern Isles. Other modules will explore Viking history, runes and place names. Places on Orkney and Shetland and in parts of the Highlands have their roots in Norse. The new qualification can be studied online. Course leader Dr Donna Heddle said: "The Vikings have been incredibly influential in world history and culture. "It's great to be able to use the Centre for Nordic Studies' recognised expertise in this area to create this unique and exciting course on offer to students all over the world." The launch of the qualification is timely, with Norse god Thor portrayed as a superhero in new movie Avengers Assemble. Based on Marvel Comics' character Thor, he is played in the film by Chris Hemsworth. A new Doctor Who story written by Ayrshire-born novelist Jenny Colgan also has the Time Lord have a close encounter with Vikings on the Western Isles. In March, the Centre for Nordic Studies started work with staff and students from Oxford, Cambridge and Nottingham universities in an effort to expand knowledge of Viking culture. The project will include seven-day field trips for students to Viking sites on Orkney. The Northern Isles and the Highlands and Islands are rich in Viking and Norse sites and remains. Last year, a 12th Century Viking shipbuilding yard was documented on Skye. The UK mainland's first fully intact Viking boat burial site was also uncovered in the west Highlands. The site, at Ardnamurchan, is thought to be more than 1,000 years old. Artefacts buried alongside the Viking in his boat suggest he was a high-ranking warrior.
Studies of how the Vikings are portrayed in films, comics, music and the media form part of a university's new postgraduate qualification.

By Tanya Gupta & Minreet KaurBBC News Vaisakhi, which this year falls on Monday, commemorates the creation of the Khalsa, a collective body of initiated Sikhs. In past years, thousands have gathered in the towns and cities that are home to England's largest Sikh communities. But now gurdwaras have found ways to take Vaisakhi into people's homes. Two of the biggest events that would have been held later this month were in London's Trafalgar Square, where more than 30,000 have gathered in past years, and Birmingham's Handsworth Park, where up to 100,000 people were expected. Celebrations in Leicester, Southall and Gravesend have also been brought to a halt. In London, cultural advisor to the mayor, Manraj Singh Othi, said while Vaisakhi had brought together Londoners, Sikhs and non-Sikhs alike, public safety came first. Those feelings were echoed by the Council of Sikh Gurdwaras in Birmingham - and in Southall, west London, gurdwara general secretary Navraj Singh added: "No event in the Sikh calendar should endanger lives." At any other time, celebrations would have included colourful street processions, or nagar kirtans, and free food, or langar, as well as cultural activities including arts, crafts, entertainment and martial arts. But this year, religious worship has moved online and the Sikh practice of offering food was set to be taken out to the community, as people self-isolated and stayed at home. In Leicester, that initiative has been backed by the Leicestershire Police Sikh Association, which has been helping to cook and deliver meals, distributing between 300 and 400 meals to people each day. Meanwhile virtual worship included prayers direct from the Golden Temple in Amritsar streamed by Sikh2Inspire, meditation and talks by Basics of Sikhi, and a digital mass prayer on Monday, organised by Digi Sangat. But there have still been mixed feelings. In Hayes, also in west London, volunteer Sundeep Kaur Gosal said she missed the vulnerable people she would usually help with her "mind and heart", while Nari Sohal, from Slough, who volunteers for the charity Swat, said: "Life feels like it's at a standstill." However, as reports emerged that ethnic minority communities were being hit hardest by covid-19, Harjinder Panesar, chairwoman of Harrow Sikhs, said she was relieved events had been cancelled, adding: "We can return next year when we have a vaccination." Sukhjeevan Singh, from the Sikh Council UK, said special food production guidance compiled by the Sikh Doctors Association had been issued to gurdwaras during the pandemic. Before the covid-19 crisis, gurdwaras already had "langar-managers" who had food hygiene training, allergen awareness, and food handling and hygiene policies in place, he added. He said gurdwaras serving langar registered their facilities with their local authorities in a similar way to restaurants. In Gravesend, Kent, the gurdwara had expected about 10,000 people to celebrate Vaisakhi. Newly-elected president Manpreet Singh Dhaliwal said, along with the virtual prayers and food deliveries, the gurdwara had been taking langar to NHS workers in several hospitals nearby. Gravesend priest Giani Amerjit Singh said it was to say "thank you to all these people working on the frontline". Hardev Singh Sohal, from Liverpool's United Sikh Association and Guru Nanak Gurdwara, said: "We believe the whole human race is one. We are all equal. Our religion believes in service and humanity. We help everybody." He said all gurdwaras in Liverpool remained closed and this year he would be spending Vaisakhi at home with his daughter.

Celebrations to mark one of the most important dates in the Sikh calendar have been cancelled or postponed because of the coronavirus pandemic.
