Not sure Matt but my glass at least half full.Hopefully no wave 2 and we get back on a terrace sipping our favourite tipple- from May 11 onwards.

Time restrictions for walking don’t make sense because you have a concentration of people all out at the same time.It would make more sense to leave it discretionary to the individual....

...

Beach bars should be the beneficiaries when relaxed rules come in.Looking forward to paella in AKU AKU -sooner rather than later.

Are we going to see hordes arriving from Almería city when travel within Almería province permitted?

This would mean you do not know how many times people have gone out.....unlike here in UK when it is abuse by just a few, (regardless of the few bits of media shown).....We are at a popular seaside resort on the South Coast and it is deserted)......makes sense to give them times to be sure they only leave when they should though.....

The difference between Spain behaving and the British is 'Guns' we should have had the Army out to stop the few idiots, that is the only negative in the UK......but now someone will say that is making us a police state!  I am proud that Oxford university is testing an immunisation programme, and that from today the Isle of Wight is to start testing an app to show if you need to isolate. Keeping the numbers down is phase one, but we ALL need something long term, until another virus jumps/ mutates of course.....We hope to be back in our beautiful Spanish Villa soon....

What popular seaside resort on the south coast? We are in Hayling Island! Just about to go for my daily stroll along the seafront. I prefer Mojacar!

We are in Weymouth.....Born here and have a Coach House just a stones throw from the Prom and Gardens....We have 3 of the P and O ships in the harbour at the moment, (they are sharing berths in Soton....one in and one out!) as well as many others....It is like a parking lot out there! Stay safe....

Apologies Guys! I started a post and went missing for over 24 hours. I had some internet problems.

To Answer a Few Questions Raised:-

1. I am in Ireland and unlikely to leave it for a while for a number of reasons (a) I am not too happy at the way CV-19 is being battled in most european countries especially the UK. (b) There is be self isolation of 2 weeks to anywhere I could travel (c) There would be 2 weeks self isolation on my return. Furthermore, I am limited to where I can travel even in Ireland. The 2 kms distance is being increased to 5 kms from tomorrow. 

2. Is what I have written based on news reports or just personal opinion? Answer:- Both. 

3. The "R" figure is at under 1.0 in the UK. If you believe that, you should still be reading the Beano. Even the full amount of Covid-19 deaths in the UK is pure guesswork. If you don't believe me take a look at some ITV news programmes; BBC coverage is as near to crazy propaganda as you can get. The Reproduction Figure is of tantamount importance and it needs to be accurate otherwise all other figures are just conjecture. 

4. Herd Immunity:- This has been proved to be too dangerous and useless. 

I think I've provided all the answers to questions asked by posters; if I've failed please feel free to ask again.

I think you can have two in a car as of today but they have to be as far away from each other as possible and you have to wear masks...

I believe you are correct there.  It’s two or more in a car, sitting together as of 11/5
