Not this time .....
We'd devised a list between us, it was my time to go in today.

According to TfL numbers, around 162,000 unique payment cards – either contactless or Oyster – were used on Tube and rail services across London on Wednesday 1st April. This compares to around two million unique payments cards used on the same services on a typical day.
On the London Underground, including all other tickets, where there was previously around four million journeys per day at this time last year, TfL is now just seeing around 210,000 journeys per day on the Tube.
Reports of some overcrowding in the past week were put down to one instance of a train failure, and also some changed travel habits as people spread out their journey times so that the rush hour started earlier than usual.
Rail travel in London down by 95%, buses down by 85%
Since the order to avoid going outside unless essential, and avoid travel, passengers numbers on London's trains have plunged by 95 percent, while bus passengers are down by 85 percent.www.ianvisits.co.uk

I get the need for outdoor exercise but I don't think going out for a picnic is ok, personally and I'm a bit baffled that anyone would, although I do obviously understand why people would want to.
I've not left the house for 18 days, along with my daughter, but we do have a garden (and I've also managed to secure weekly shopping slots by some usual but also selfish planning ahead) and my family is also quite sloth like, in general.
On top of that my kids are older a
I'm avoiding the whole scapegoating issue until such a time as it might actually happen.
Because it strikes me that the things government etc are saying that people suspect are setting the scene for scapegoating, are mostly the same things that would be said in a desperate plea to actually get people to do their bit and adhere to the restrictions. Maybe there are some exceptions, but generally I'd say good luck separating these phenomenon.

bloody hell. So the ventilators will be allocated according to a "frailty scale". Anyone know what that scale looks like?
Learning disabilities patients told they may be ‘too frail’ for mechanical ventilation if they get covid-19
People with learning disabilities have been told by GP surgeries they are unlikely to be prioritised for hospital care if they contract covid-19, because they could be too "frail".www.hsj.co.uk
The point that so many miss is that policies to deal with major events such as pandemics take decades to develop. The genesis of the current UK policy seems to lie in the response of the Blair government in 2005 to a call by the WHO for increased preparedness for pandemics, with the production of strategy documents.
Going through several iterations, but with only minor changes, we ended up with the policy in its final form in 2014, supplemented by multiple planning documents for all levels of government – with the EU taking a close interest in developments. And, with policy essentially locked in stone, any government would have been committed to following it.
I have a really bad feeling about how this lockdown might play out over the coming weeks. Over 2,000 arrests in Spain so far apparently for breaking the rules. They close Brockwell park in Lambeth today, where only 1 in 10 people live in a house so 90% left with nowhere to go for their daily exercise apart from the narrow pavements?
When going for exercise I try and choose the days and times when there will be least people. 7am, 8pm, cold, dark, wet etc..
People thinking they can just pop to the park on a sunny weekend lunchtime need to clue up.

More on frailty here: NHS England » Identifying frailtyGoogle the Rockwood clinical frailty scale. AFAIK that's not the only way of allocating them if it's needed, it's just one of the ways that will be used to assess who gets the limited resources. Other issues such as current clinical condition, age, and co-morbidities will also be taken into account from what I've heard.
It's brutal but it makes sense I'm afraid.
Clue up how, by being fined / arrested ? I am not at all saying its fine for people to go for a picnic just that there is no way this will play out for weeks and weeks in densely populated urban areas where people have no access to outdoor space without very significant problems, of both enforcement and health outcomes for people including children living in tiny crowded flats etc. Just grim.
