I feel the context here is recreational boating, not permanent residence

Bound to be mistakes, everyone having to learn new things, including the government. I have just received a letter from my local council, reitering what the government has decided, they can also fetch food and medicines if you need it, they will not take money, they will sort it out when crisis is over, how serious does it seem now, every residential address in Sandwell received same letter.

Well yes maybe cycling could be abused.
However, it can be undertaken from home, there is no need to stop and potentially contact others to buy fuel or need to find a parking area with potential contacts. |

Maybe true but thats why you cant just ban people from using boats. People who live by the canal might pop a canoe in and got off for an hour or so - it maintains social distance, doesn't bother anyone and means one less person walking in the local park. I don't think anyone is suggesting or condoning doing anything not in the spirit of whats - rightly - been laid down by the powers that be.

Another classic 'spirit of the rules'... either way, you look like you're ignoring them and it's hardly a show of solidarity to your brethren is it?
Anyway, with flexibility comes abuse, and every b**tard is a runner/wlaker/outdoorsy type now, when they only left the house once last month to get a new iPhone charger. |

You are allowed to drive or cycle to work, so not the same as exercise anyway. |

Actually we have been banned by our Harbour Master from using our boats. Much though I would love to go sailing, I really don’t think it would be sit well with our local community, so I will settle for an hours walk or jog ... on the scale of things not much of a hardship

Millions will be able to stand tall at the end of this, let everyone at the very least not get in there way.

Perhaps we should just follow the rules.
