In Wales no more than six people can meet up indoors, unless you're under 11 years old.
Changes to the rules mean that from Monday, indoor meetings of more than six people from an extended household will be illegal in Wales.
It was also announced that people will have to wear face coverings in indoor public spaces like shops.
However the rules do not apply to children aged under 11.
Outside you can meet up to 30 people from different households.

Ministers in Wales have brought in these new restrictions after an increase in coronavirus cases linked to people meeting indoors.
Since late August, up to four households have been able to form an extended household in Wales. This has meant that people who live together in one house can join up with three other households and meet each other more freely outdoors, indoors and sleep over.
However with this new rule, no more than six people from an extended household can meet indoors.

The new rules will apply to restaurants and pubs as well as people's homes.
These restrictions will not apply in Caerphilly which has been placed under local lockdown.
There people are not allowed to meet friends, extended households or other families indoors.
