The previously gloriously clean air of outer north west London
is now (locally) polluted with the distinctive odours of unburtn hydrocarbons
as this years debutant BBQ-ers attempt to light garage/shed-damp charcoal
and revert to firelighters.(Just for clarity: I have not put any notes through neighbours letterboxes,
nor yours).

Yeah - this. Everyone our way seems to be obeying the rules. Anyone at the park is keeping a reasonable distance and not being a dick about it - it seems low risk to me (obviously not an expert). It's certainly lower risk than Sainsbury's.
The govt has managed to stop (I imagine) 95% of gatherings and travelling. My personal interactions have gone down from hundreds per day on the tube, to half a dozen or less. Is that last 5% worth the loss of goodwill?
In other news, I got an anonymous note through my door this afternoon referencing the virus and asking that, in this time of national peril, we refrain from using our barbecues due to, I assume, local asthma suffers.
Thought that was a bit over the top.
