Thank you
I'm very fortunate to have lots of beautiful views to point my camera at.

Just a wee walk in the woods today - WFH, kids at school, Mrs K at work. Is it wrong that my main concern with whatever is announced during the week is going to be around exercise?
If they go down the Welsh route I may finally end my flirtation with anarchism and take it on full time...

The Welsh route?

Yeah, the WG put time and distance limits on the amount of exercise you could do each day, and that you couldn't travel to a location to do your exercise, it had to be done from your door. In England it was legal to drive a reasonable distance to travel to X location and take your exercise there.
There's no evidence the additional Welsh restrictions had any greater impact on disease control, but they appeal to Facebook fascism and the Strongman look...

Ah yes, I get you. It didn't really apply to me as I don't drive anyway but it did annoy friends who live in town as they were used to being able to drive to the coast to take their dogs for walks. It did mean that people discovered nice places closer to home though and started getting to know other dog walkers in the area. So swings and roundabouts I guess

I think the rules are even tougher in France. You have to take your exercise within a 1km radius of your home. I'd struggle to get to anything other than a suburban street if that was the case here.

I have been swimming every day for the past few weeks, to keep me away from the pub during the very slow days at work. The pool closes from tomorrow night, so will just have walking and cycling. Have some winter cycling MTB shoes arriving today, but need some full length gloves I think. But if I can do two hours a day on the bike that should be pretty good at keeping me out of trouble.

One on one? You're crazy.
I'd be ok , the marshes are at the bottom of my road . Academic atm, I've been told to self-isolate as I have been in contact with someone who has now tested positive, so no #statesancionedexercise for 10 daysI think the rules are even tougher in France.

I'm lucky enough to be working full time (from home) but this does limit the time I have for exercise now it's dark when I stop work. I'm still getting out for a daily walk of about an hour but the bike has been relegated to weekends only. Even then the last couple of weekends have been appalling weather. The constant strong head winds weren't much fun last Sunday.
I bought some cycling gloves after having to ride through so many nettles so I've got that sorted but I'm just using sturdy trainers at the moment. I've designated one pair as my "MTB trainers" as I got stuck in some deep mud a couple of weeks ago and they haven't recovered!

Wind is a pain and it always seems to be a headwind, even if you turn around and go the other way!
By all accounts, these shoes...
Dry out really well, so when you get home and they are caked in mud and that you can hose/jet-wash them down and they're good as new. That's the theory anyway, will report back on that. But I know my regular shoes would be destroyed with all the gunk out there at this time of year!

Sorry to hear about the self-isolation. I hope you don't start showing any symptoms! I could get to the local SSSI if we were forced to keep within a 1km radius but there's only so many times you can walk around a chalk hillside without getting bored.I'd be ok , the marshes are at the bottom of my road .

We had a night out in the van - don't know when we'll be able tom do it again. Last lockdown there were near lynchings of anyone seen in a camper van 
We ended up putting a big 'locals not on holiday', sign in the window before we drove anywhere. Don't get many big trees down where I live, so it was good to wake up under an oak.
Went for a walk with my daughter this evening. The Mount is closed, the tourist have fucked off and I'm looking forward to having where I live back for a bit

My first official walk of Lockdown 2.0 this morning. I was surprised by how many cars were out and about on the local roads. It was quieter but nowhere near as quiet as I expected.
The wind and rain has stripped a lot of the remaining leaves off the trees round here but a few still hanging on some trees but others are completely bare.
Holly Berries!

The first aircraft there is the VIP Voyager, they put a velvet beanbag on top of the fuel tanks for Brenda or Boris to sit on

She had a boring day - flying in big racetrack patterns while an endless stream of fast jet pilots asked for a thousand gallons of four star...
There was another one this morning - TARTAN49, a rather dull grey job...

Much of flying does sound dull, one of my dad’s mates used to fly a B52 from Texas in a massive circle over the Atlantic, Canada, Alaska and back to Texas, about 20 hours with a mid-air refuelling, three times a week. He was well pleased that they started a war with Vietnam and he could go and do something a little more exciting...
