Can anyone honestly say

they haven't broken ANY lockdown rules?

When we were only allowed 1 hours exercise we regularly walked for 2 but as we never got within a 100 yards of anyone else we didn't consider we were doing anything wrong.

After we were allowed 6 in a garden my mate invited 2 couples for his birthday. Few hours later another couple arrived who had previously said no. Had we offered to leave it would have embarrassed us, the hosts and the interlopers who are good friends. So we stayed.

I consider we broke the letter of the law but not the spirit.

Of course you weren’t doing anything wrong, these extremely detailed regulations are, in my humble opinion, not needed. What if someone, in their solitude, went for a walk for 5 hours without meeting a single person in the Yorkshire Moors... FFS...

It's the morons who completely ignore the rules and regulations that are the problem and not the type of examples mentioned. Trouble is, we must have got more morons in Leicester than most.

Totally correct greyhound but it's not PC to say so!

Whether it was laws, rules or guidelines what was needed from us all was common sense and of course the problem with common sense is it's not very common.

I think that the majority have been fine with it and mostly followed the rules. I'd say I have 95% of the time. Its always the same though, a few ruin it for everyone which is why imho I think this virus will come back to bite us full on. I'm actually not sure what to believe about anything to do with it anymore but I do know we're all better not getting it especially if you're older.

Apparently 500,000 people turned up to the beach over the weekend. Add in the Scousers and the BLM mob and you realise just how many complete morons there are in society who will not follow basic guidance even at times like this.

I've been much the same as all of the above and I agree Stripes that it will come back, not sure how it will work for us as a society in winter unless the cold can stop it proliferating. In densely populated areas it's going to be a right struggle - personally I'm not going to be making unnecessary trips to the cinema or the pub. I'm lucky enough to have a group of mates who cycle so socialising is easy enough.
