We were surprised at the amount of people walking and running and the traffic on the road was almost normal. What happened to the lockdown? It did not appear to be any different on any other day, although not as busy as a weekend. What are all those doing out of their houses? I thought that we were all supposed to stay at home. It did not appear to be that today.:groan:	Roscoe (6288)

At noon today i passed a couple with a baby in a stroller -wife had on a mask, hubby pushing the stroller no mask and a few minutes latera young mum with daughter no mask. Ok no people near by but she did not have a mask "dangling on her for when se encounters other people. And a general observation some people still do not seem to understand or want to scan in-are they dumb or being deliberately arrogant ? And my hated phrase -The team of 5 million ' absolute bullshit -where is team spirit?	Neil F (14248)

However, I walk daily for an hour at these times leaving home at 6-6.30am and rarely ever see anyone. If I do see another walker, I usually cross the road until we have passed then return. I find this is the easiest way. Ken :)	kenj (9738)

I've seen a few cars, not as many, people still shop, go for their shots and stuff. Some out exercising which is permitted, some had masks, some not. As I said her next door got her usual weekly visit from the other one, but then she doesn't have a (drivable) car so probably bought her shopping over I guess. Both kinds probably....ahem. I waited on my mum at the supermarket the other day and 2 joined queue without a mask. I watched, and one pulled it out and donned it as she got nearer, the other I couldn't see, he got to door....but when he came out he had one on, lol....given one? The mask is for when you are near others.....fine if you're not.	piroska (17583)
1480056	2021-08-26 08:06:00	I have noticed more cars this time than last year's lockdown. I stood on the motorway bridge which is 10min walk from my place, I stood there for 5mins I couldn't get a photo with no cars in it. I have my vaccine next week been booked 6 weeks ago, yet the drive thrus are for people who haven't even booked .... meh.	Nomad (952)
1480057	2021-08-26 08:13:00	SWMBO and I both had our first today, it was organised through her work as they had more than 80 to do.	gary67 (56)
1480058	2021-08-26 09:30:00	I have to drive to Christchurch on Monday, P.E.T/CT scan Tuesday, then drive back Wednesday. Would have caught up with family and friends if there wasn't a lock-down, oh well, can't be helped. :(	KarameaDave (15222)
