I am going a bit off topic here, but my frustration is completely going to go OTT with people when they simply aren't taking no notice of these measures. It's not just the people going to parks like we've seen on the news, it's the everyday going to the shop/exercising routines where people are so lazy to wait.
A trip to the local convenience - Just over an hour ago I popped to the shop, needed the usual bread and milk. The shop isn't huge, but only had three folk in anyway. I am customer number two in the door and go to pick the bread up. Of course, the older gentlemen behind me couldn't wait for me to pick the bread up and just went past as normal. Him waiting for me was just a few seconds.
A trip to Iceland - Twice in the last week I've gone to Iceland. I know that the supermarket is hardly going to be full of the most intelligent, but I always hoped this social distancing would drill it into people. Nope, people just can't wait. An elderly couple stood bang next to me to pick up some potatoes then did it again. To add insult to injury, I got to the till and there I was faced with 5 tills, only 2 open. But guess which two of the tills was open? The tills bang next to each other. The staff was barely 2m apart and I certainly was within a metre.
Tesco - I don't know if every Tesco is the same, but they've closed the end of the aisles, that means you get to the end of one aisle, and then have to go back up it to go to the next one. That means that you're still passing folk in that aisle because you're having to back on yourself or people have to come to the bottom of aisle to search, whilst you're still there because you can't go into the next aisle.
I am of course going to contradict myself here. But last week I received the letter to tell me that I fall into the highly vulnerable category of 1.5, it was pretty surprising. The letter suggests 12 weeks of not leaving the house. I can't do that, it's impossible. I'm keeping to the social distancing measures myself, which includes having to cross roads to avoid each other. But the problem is that some people aren't taking no notice, over what? A couple of seconds?
I get the feeling that this is going to take a very long time.

How often do you go to do convenience shopping Chompy? In a week, even in the current circumstance? Does your bread, milk and other essentials last you more than a week? I am pretty sure bread last 3 days max.
Perhap I have to go and pick up prescriptions too. Who knew?

Tbf. I go out for essentials like fags and the telegraph. I loudly announce how vulnerable I am at the door of the newsagent and the seas part.
