You would have to walk for over 2 hours though. Its all getting rather silly.Talk about giving mixed messages. We can drive to the countryside get exercise.
Coronavirus lockdown: Police guidelines give 'reasonable excuses' to go out
Long stays on benches should not be allowed but shopping for luxuries is okay, policing advice says.www.bbc.co.uk
From the article...
Exercise guidelines
On exercise, the guidance lists driving to the countryside for a walk as "reasonable" if "far more time" is spent walking than driving.
But it adds that driving for a "prolonged period with only brief exercise" is not reasonable.
That would appear to indicate that someone who drove for an hour to a beauty spot for a walk would not be contravening the rules.
Driving should be a necessity only only food medicine and work,give some people an inch,and you know the saying.You would have to walk for over 2 hours though. Its all getting rather silly.
My lad more or less summed it up by saying he could go anywhere now (not that he would) and use any of those excuses.Bit of a balls up here IMO, but the media are as much to blame. The problem is that the new guidance was not meant for the publics consumption, it’s was just ‘here are some example there might be ok, depending on context’ for officers to aid their decision making. So it’s confusing how the media have presented it as a public list of ‘dos and don’t s’. It’s to aid interpretation, not provide a definitive list of things that are ok, because you can’t do that.
I think so too.Noticed a lot more traffic about this past week. This stay at home stuff gone out the window me thinks.
The cops don't even stop me to check ID now. This does the trick. View attachment 1295385
Do you work at Timpsons?
Obviously, this is a joke.
I'd go pick her up. The round trip for my daughters is a similar distance.I really need to go and collect my daughter. She went to visit her boyfriend just as this all started and has been stuck there ever since. His family have not been sticking to the lockdown and have been inviting people around and she is quite anxious.
It is a 100 mile round trip, what would everyone else do?

Just playing devil’s advocate here, but under current guidance (might change this week), your daughter is currently not part of your household, and would have to to isolate before rejoining your household. Unless perhaps she had a test to prove she hasn’t the virus.I really need to go and collect my daughter. She went to visit her boyfriend just as this all started and has been stuck there ever since.
