Have done so much more walking this year due to lockdown. Went out Monday morning with a friend who is in her 80s and has a husband with terminal cancer.
Walking along the pavement as far apart as we could be, a young man ran between us without an excuse, by your leave etc.
Have now put my life on hold for two weeks because you just don’t know!! Was walking this morning with another friend who cares for her 93 year old mother. Can’t risk it.
So I sit in while this cretin terrorises the local area.
🙄😢😱😱😱

Good morning Hylda I'm sorry about that them joggers are quite annoying they come from no where and we always quickly lift our masks scarves up been wearing them outdoors since this new strain but not on if no one's around I have to wear scarfe in cold anyway as of my nuralgia problem I don't like breathing cold air in, it's the same old story that some just have no consideration, I'm sure you will be fine as was only near the jogger briefly and outdoors but I understand you can't be too carefull, 2 weeks seems long time but I know from how quick the moon's are full the come back to full, It will fly by and I stayed in 5 days on 2 occasions as I live with my mam and she worried about virus in air, I go out everyday now in park when quiet,when I stayed in I'd go up down tenfort with pixie it was better than nothing, hope you have a nice day hugs from us 💛🌟🐆xx

He could have looked behind him to see if a car was coming and then ran round up in the road. I spend enough time on my walks stepping off the pavement so people have plenty of space.
Hi, Hylda, In my locale, there are no consequences if people don't adhere to mandates issued by our gov and mayor. As a result, many don't comply with masks or social distancing.
Would hate to think that one rude runner would result in your giving up some outdoor time. Maybe you could choose another area in which to walk?
I expect you are cross, I would be too. We have just been out for a walk and every time someone came the other way we crossed over to the other side of the road, I felt safer that way. So we did a lot of crisscrossing 😀
Just a thought which might help you not feel so angry. Because of DH's immobility, we can't even go for a walk - well not more than 200 yards there and back - so we have been more or less housebound for the whole ten months , apart from when I had minor surgery for skin cancer on my scalp in in August, which entailed a few taxi journeys. DH came with me on the follow up appointments just to get out of the house for an hour. I think we are all fed up and as you say, some folk are in their own little world , without considering others. It was always thus, unfortunately. Stay safe.
Thank you. I’m just glad to get out with my friend as her husband has malignant myeloma and needs to be protected. I know there are a lot of people worse off than me, but I have been so careful, don’t want to fall at the last hurdle xx
So many of these idiots Hylda! The others are to be found in supermarkets, pinning you between the carrots and the cabbages and 'tsk' if you dare to ask for a foot of space to pass by. 😡

My husband won’t let me in a supermarket lately. xx
The thing is when we go out we are faced with this every day wherever you go this has happened to me several times when I go out I create space someone fills it I'm 35 weeks pregnant do you have a back garden You could venture into?not that you should have to but if the possibility is scary for you it may be just best for you to stay home and use your own outdoor space visitors are also allowed outdoors x
We live in a flat but have a vast golf course opposite us which is closed now so think I will choose my time and walk over there. Please keep safe with that baby xx
