Lockdown Travel

We have been getting our heads around the new “rules” on travel during this latest lockdown.

Todays journey was OK, it was for a medical appointment.

Travel for exercise is less clear. We are meant to stay in our “ local area”.

Our immediate area is an issue for us, the two significant open spaces can be too busy and the paths too narrow.

So what does “local area” mean ? It’s not clear from what I have seen, and some will apply a very loose interpretation. We are going to use the clearer guidance from Scotland, which is to travel within the local authority boundary and no further than 5 miles from it. We are certainly not going to go far, and where we cannot social distance from others.
