Seriously though - I'm more concerned that we all just keep chatting and keeping up the Blitz spirit!
OH's cycling group have cancelled their forthcoming trips - as much because the average age of riders is about 75 and the lunch and coffee stops are an important part of the trip and that involves cafes and pubs...
True to form though a couple of them are more or less saying "Nobody's telling me what to do" and trying to organise outings with other members. They really don't seem to get that this is a serious brand new disease to which nobody is known to have any natural immunity - only that bestowed after actually contracting the virus.
They probably also don't get that they might soon be forced to make only essential (food, medical and work) journeys as is happening in France and (I think) some other countries. I believe people there can be challenged by the police if they are suspected of making non-essential journeys.
Re the £1000 fine LB. I think that's definitely been discussed as emergency legislation if sufficient people don't voluntarily comply with government advice and the virus spreads out of control.
College isn't closed as far as I know but I'm probably not going in.
Treated myself to some birthday seeds,
