Inside, yep. I can only hope that @Stonehedge is right, and that after getting their hands burnt several times lifting restrictions too early this is a very conservative plan.
However, the argument for spacing out the relaxations is based on making the changes then allowing time to make sure that they haven't resulted in infection rates increasing, as recommended by Chris Whitty.
Hopefully this is an exercise in expectation management, and if things go faster than 'expected' the relaxations will happen faster.
Personally I'm worried I'll go nuts if I have to wait this long for the relaxations.

I guess it depends on your situation.
Amongst parents of school age children (based on my Whatsapp chats with friends/family) it's bordering on euphoria. Getting children out of the house and back into school in a couple of weeks restores a lot of sanity for both children and parents. Relaxations in time for the summer holidays. The summer half term (May 29 - June 6) also nicely after another set of restrictions lifted.
this timeline seems so weird still, so basically I cant see my parents (otherside of the country) until May?
