I’m so glad I’m not the only one with that going through my head Ian! It makes much more sense that the rest of it anyway 🙄

Luckily I'm in Wales and we don't have to understand what it means (yet) as we're on 3 more weeks of Stay home...but as of Monday we're allowed out more than once to exercise if we want, though still only leaving from home (ie, local exercise, no driving).

I like this site for the (usual) lack of political rhetoric .......

I found Boris very clear, at least concerning exercise.

Get as much SAFE exercise as you can! Safe means not doing it within (at least) 2 meters of anyone else unless you live with them. Driving to a safer place if you live in a crowded place is now okay.

But I'm looking forward to seeing it all written down.

Bojo and his entire cabinet are a bunch of lerts - I have no faith in his/their management of current crisis.

It’s like I used to tell the kids - maybe, we’ll see, it depends!! Except that then I really meant NO!!

Me neither, but at least I can now go for a run and a walk on Wednesday (and indeed a swim in a lake.,.).

I’ve just tried to send a post my daughter shared on Facebook today, which explains it clearly. Basically it’s this

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

USE COMMON SENSE

TRY TO TAKE SOME RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOURSELVES

F***ING GROW UP!!

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////

I think that explains it fully!!!

I just hope that “ driving to exercise” isnt read as “ loading all your kids and mates into a camper and coming to Devon for a holiday”

Perhaps we can hijack the term lerts to refer to covidiots or Wuhankers?

Well!! we all stopped being a lert and now we are suffering second cold in 3 weeks, there was something to all that hand washing and mask wearing me thinks. I still wear a mask all day at work but all that coughing and sneezing around shops and hospitals has let loose those cold germs.

I’ve been reading back a few of your posts Tim and having a lovely time while I lounge on the couch wondering when we can run again.

Thank you for your rich and valuable contribution to this forum, mine and many others running journeys.

Keep smiling
