Easy way to dissuade those who still think it's OK to travel many miles in their car for no good reason. Send them back home and then clamp the vehicle until the crisis is over.
A near neighbour works with elderly people undergoing rehab following falls, hip or knee replacement etc. She is also helping to look after her elderly father who is living alone. This afternoon her daughter along with her husband and kids has been visiting for several hours. They live about 20 miles away! Essential travel, I think not!!!
@KT53 -They [police] apparently stopped a family today who'd driven 200 miles from London to Devon - to go fishing. What is wrong with these people! You're right - but better than clamping - just crush their r*ddy cars.
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
Boris has gone to Chequers to recuperate, No 10 is just across the river from St Thomas. One rule for us plebs another for the elite- as per usual.
I'm no great fan of Boris, but he was just one of thousands who have been hospitalised, and is now simply at home recovering. The home may be somewhat different to most but he has to be somewhere.
My friend's grandmother died from Covid-19 last Sunday and now his Father has been diagnosed with it too.
Flu does get a lot of people of that age, I wish my mum could have caught it and died from pneumonia, better than spending six months slowly dying from cancer. Would have been a blessing for her.
Gardening on the wild, windy west side of Dartmoor.
These certainly are worrying times, but try not to think too much about the potential scenarios. All we, the general public, can do is comply with the distancing and travel advice. Thinking too much can be detrimental to our own mental health.
Found my first tick of the year Our garden is infested with them (thanks deer) so I usually pick up at least a dozen unwanted passengers every year. I really don't want to even think about getting Lyme disease at the moment.
