Actually one of those walking bubbles would be a better solution.

As long as you keep refreshing the air inside.

In some places they are increasing pavement widths with temporary barriers..

I foresee a rise in sales of gazebos so people can group in gardens even in the rain...
Lucky we've got a large open barn!!

Actually, how many people do have a garden big enough to accommodate 6 people socially distancing?
Modern houses only seem to have tiny outdoor spaces.
Going to be very noisy for the neighbours if they're all shouting at each other...

Congratulations on such a great workout! If life gives you lemons, make lemonade. 
They say that the best way to get maximum exercise form swimming is to splash aimlessly. Good technique is aimed at conserving effort.

Paradoxically, my Mum who hasn't been out of the house since lockdown, is desperate to go to the supermarket again.
Whilst I am keen to be able to have an internet grocery order again so I don't need to spend so much time going to the supermarket.

Staying in the house leaves something to be desired. Just don't ask me what.

Big garden & fresh air? I'm glad we've got those. Just other things I'd rather do than shop!

I've been visiting foreign lands while on lockdown.
First I spent several weeks in Hyrule 
. For the last month and a half I've been in Skyrim.

I doubt that those places have the virus.

And getting peeved at how many extra visitors we have had since Monday to our part of the coastline.. Raining now so that'll see them off.

It's lovely but only spitting. Still warm and there's no wind. However the sea front is empty and us locals can go about our own business without having to step over bodies. Even our local detectorist is able to amble along the beach finding what ever it is he's looking for.

What do beachconbers do when they find a bald beach?

Wow... Mr. X. That was quite interesting. I'm not a W.o.W player myself, nor a player of any multiplayer games, so I'm still safe in Skyrim. But that online pandemic was absolutely fascinating.

Teasswill Posted Jun 4, 2020
Fascinating!
I don't do multiplayer either. I wish I could say I'm safe in Skyrim, but I'm so rubbish at these games - even on the easiest level I can just about beat basic foes. I even managed to accidentally drown myself in Skyrim.
