How long is it since you left the house?

[marlowe]

Only 23 hours so far but not planning to go out today but will need to tomorrow.. I'm sure some on here have already been housebound for a number of days even before the latest restrictions...

Is anyone going to forgo the allowable opportunities or let their partners go out foraging for the essentials?

Is there a danger of becoming too comfortable in your isolation so when restrictions are lifted you find it too daunting to go out, much like insitutionalised prisoners who can"t cope with freedom once they have served their sentence and commit crimes purely so they can be re-imprisoned.

20 minutes ago. Went for a 30min walk. Lovely day out there

Left at 5.30am for work as usual

Just about 26 hours now, and that was only to go to the corner shop to get some milk. Haven't been out for longer than 5 minutes since Saturday shopping trip.

Sunday morning, jumped in car and drove to in-laws to leave a Mothers Day card and present. Rang doorbell and jumped back in car until they answered.

48 hours so far - whole family doing “shielding” - so only 83+ days to go...!

Thursday, but I have a back garden. Still feeling cooped up, though.

I'll stay in for the duration if I can get the food deliveries sorted. Got one from Sainsbury's yesterday, but was that a fluke?

Around 30 minutes ago, bought and delivered essentials to the self-isolating son and girlfriend.

So triple whammy with good deed, essentials shopping plus exercise

Saturday, I think.

Went for a walk and did a bit of food shopping.

About 2hrs my friend's dog got out, only a puppy. We went looking while keeping our distance. Little girl found hiding under a bush. Very lucky as they live near the A21 and she had run across it, fortunately it was empty.

About 90mins and she's nagging already. Another 3 weeks minimum of this ... DOH !!!

About an hour ago as took the dog for a walk which obviously included my daily exercise. A few people doing the same but everyone keeping their distance.

Along, long week. Went out last Tuesday.

Mrs has me under house arrest. I'd like to walk the deserted streets of Lower Bevendean but she's a bit paranoid at the moment. At least I have a garden.

 

[happypig]

Went out for a stroll last night. Been in all day today. Will be going to the bakers and co-op tomorrow which will be both shopping and exercise.

about 115 hrs... i have popped to the flats communal gardens but not out from the block.

I am enjoying being lazy to be honest. I don't feel bored as i have so many odds jobs to do around the flat... but first i have a few films and series to watch.

I’ve only been out on one day in the last 8. Otherwise been inside the whole time.

Saturday was a relief; went to the supermarket and got enough in supplies to not have to go for another 14 days.

Then drove out to Al Qudra, where you can start to get a bit of desert on the outskirts of Dubai.

Walked the dunes in total solitude, and got some nice pictures of the thunderstorms we had over the weekend, as they headed out over the distant desert and the sun came down.

5 hours ago for exercise, before that, yesterday to get groceries plus an aborted trip to Hove recycling centre (a tedious queue backed up on the Old Shoreham Road).

 

[sully]

I’ve not used the car since Thursday 12th and have only been out for a few short walks round the park and a couple of runs. Trying to not get angry at all the idiots who think the restrictions don’t apply to them.

 

[WilburySeagull]

self isolated since last Wednesday so at home one week.

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

An hour ago, just got back from my mate’s BBQ in Coventry.

 

[Sorrel]

We went for our allotted walk at lunchtime, into the woods, only saw others in the distance. Tomorrow lunchtime I'm off to the allotment.

I do hope that the way everyone was obeying the rules away from the cities would mean that even if some of the population don't, that we can continue following these rules without too many more restrictions.
