We have “North Wales is Closed” on the gantries above the A55. Bet we still have plenty trying. They may get a surprise as the old bill are stopping people and turning them around.

Me too. I fear the ignorant and selfish are going to **** this up.

Potentially two weeks of good work will be undone in a weekend

I really hope not

Well, I have just had a look at several webcam sites ranging from Bognor to Bournemouth,and quite a few in the West Country and I have to say that the beaches and seafronts are pretty damn' well deserted.

Luckily I have a west facing back garden, so I can enjoy the sunshine outside all afternoon. I'm outside now, sat at the patio table with my laptop.

I really do feel for people who are stuck in flats with not even a balcony to use for a bit of outside space. I'd guess a large proportion of the people who are out and about in the decent weather don't have their own outside space to enjoy. Not that it excuses it, but I really would go bonkers if I was trapped indoors all day every day for weeks and weeks on end.

A few people about but not many...

I hope those that are walking live on the seafront. If not, why are they there?

And not a soul on the beach in Tenerife

Patrick McGoohan has got a lot to answer for!

Number 1: “You will all stay in your cottages this weekend”
Number 6: “ I won’t do it”
Number 1: “By hook or by crook you will.”
Number 6: “What if I need a number 2 and need to visit the village store for loo roll?”
Number 1: “Borrow some from Number 3 next door.”

Maybe they live 10 minutes walk away and have gone out for a half hour walk ..I can see a fair number (how do I judge that amount) on Hove seafront ..walking getting some exercise..light relief from it all but from what I see acting sensibly

We can see the A27 at Arundel and it's like a normal weekend, loads of traffic, cars parked up in Arundel and people milling about with not even a foot between them, bloody idiots.

Don't think people get it, the sooner we all conform the sooner we can get back out save lives, save our businesses, job and help the NHS, f***ing idiots!

Drove to the plot for my daily exercise and saw more people out and about than I would have liked. I really hope we don't blow this.

Some people just not taking it seriously, already seen 3 houses in my street taking visitors today.


We’re they family members, or carers, or somebody doing their shopping for them?

Did you ask them?

Having done my daily exercise this morning, I do think there needs to be a clear ‘instruction’ for adults not to do their exercise with other adults, even if they live in the same household.

Far too many groups of people out walking four or five abreast down pavements.

Daily exercise for adults should be a solo activity.
