Morning......only 4 degrees out there at the moment.
Off for a brisk walk after my cuppa.

It's getting more confusing as time goes on, and as people are getting increasingly fed up, I can see many ignoring the new restrictions.Good day. It's pitch black outside so no idea about the weather. Seems still and calm so should be OK. Awake early.....again.
Quite a lot of household admin to do. Also need to review our annual budget which I quite enjoy but is also a PIA.
Chorley, like the rest of Lancashire, is under extra restrictions. I've read the relevant stuff on the .gov website. There is so much which is very confusing. Try understanding the section on Sport and Physical activity!!!!!!! Team sports are basically allowed. Define a team sport. I have one view, Mrs P another. A clear example of how difficult it is to comprehend the rules, law, guidelines.
I very much agree, though do have dependents, my life though now missing something things goes on as normal. I am though very fed up.It's getting more confusing as time goes on, and as people are getting increasingly fed up, I can see many ignoring the new restrictions.
It's at times like this I am glad I am on my own with no dependents to worry about and retired. Life pretty much goes on as normal for me. God knows how some out there are coping![]()
I am obviously missing something.Effectively for people like me there is a ban as I stay with family. This means I cannot get to good cycle lanes and get in some distance at a reasonable time of day. As tourists seem to be able to come and go freely I cannot get triking from home either unless early morning when it is still pretty dark now.
Not a happy bunny as it seems targeting the wrong people. Ban everybody as before except workers who need to earn to live I would accept but this is an ill thought out mish mash which will have little effect on behaviour of the uncaring and careless.

On 2nd thoughts...... with this decrepit old shower she may be better on her ownHey, you've got us Mo, we're always here for a blether.
I am not allowed go and visit my son's house which is on the mainland even tho' I have a separate ensuite but shared kitchen. From there I have access to lots of quiet roads and good cyclepaths where I can cycle in peace and safety. I could stay in a hotel or B&B if they were not stuffed with tourists at silly prices but where is the sense in that?I am obviously missing something.
Are you saying that if you lived on you own you could cycle freely but as you live with family you are restricted ?
If so, why ?
