ErnestTurnip Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Been in isolation since Tuesday and reckon I've put nearly 1/2 stone on, it's like being on an all inclusive holiday with the angel of death as your travel rep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bwfcfan5 Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 (edited) The advice is just not clear enough. Exercise in parks responsibly is bollocks. People don’t know what that means. We will be locked down because our government can’t give clear advice. Strurgeon, Sadiq Khan said don’t go out. Simple as that. Boris is waffling about exercise in green parks responsibly. It’s bollocks. Edit: he’s just been called out on this by a journalist finally. Edited March 22, 2020 by bwfcfan5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely it means you can exercise (walk, run, circuit etc) whilst maintaining the social distance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People are taking their kids to park. That’s what he’s talking about. He was asked if he’d ever taken a child to the park and told them they need to exercise responsibly. There are kids congregating in parks. A simple message would be ‘don’t go to parks’. Simple as that. He’s waffled on without saying anything remotely useful. There are lists being drawn up on Facebook with precise and specific advise. He’s now talking about preserving pleasure of going out. But the problem is simple you can’t go out and guarantee social distance. It’s not possible for most people.

Parks full of them. Why groups of adults have been walking and running together. If I went for a run I cannot guarantee I won’t come close to others. Not out of my house. People need to be told very clearly what this means. If you take kids to a park you cannot guarantee a 2m distance, it’s impossible. Therefore should be told clearly, not to.

peebles Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Tonge Park full of kids. 5 a side going, group of teenagers on the benches etc. Plenty on the playground, the young are oblivious to this its half term. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweep Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 (edited) I think we can take from that, we'll be in a full lockdown within a few days, sadly the public can't be trusted to isolate properly. At least now, those bell ends who kept saying "it still doesn't kill as many as flu" seem to have finally decided to pipe down, so you would hope that most realise its a pretty serious event Edited March 22, 2020 by Sweep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A sole adult can do a lot but you can’t guarantee what someone else will do. There aren’t many parks in Bolton on a sunny afternoon you can guarantee you will stay two metres away at all times.

Maybe, maybe not, but whilst the message is you can excerise responsibly in the park, people will go to the park, mingle, share playground equipment, not maintain distance etc Whether they are obtuse or ignorant, it's happening because of the vague message from the top Like urging people not to go to the pub, then having to shut them down, either because they don't care or they think they can maintain distance from other folk The message needs to be clearer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
