How will Border force Bob know when you left the country? I see this being 'enforced' like the Tier 1-2-3 restrictions in the UK, and I quote a London Restaurant 'we do not care if you mix indoors, it is not our job to police.' So looks like a 'we'd rather you didn't', and I am sure if you are famous or are all over instagram and appear on DailyMail showing off about it, you'd get an FPN of 200 GBP by Police after you'd returned if that assuming you didn't have to quarantine of course!
The lockdown will discourage people for travelling for no reason anyway, especially as travelling for holiday is quite limited given most of Europe is in lockdown, Asia is almost impossible to get into without quarantine, and the USA isn't much easier.
