(I might come back & add to this post, but this was too perfect not to post. And I think I'll go out for a walk now...)

I have been interested to see how many more people are in the park even on nasty days than I would 'normally' expect. For avoidance of doubt: not in a bad way or overcrowded, no one who doesn't look like a "legit" being-out-for-exercise; just that there are maybe 50,000 people living within walking/cycling distance of my local park and a lot more of them are going out for a nice walk at the moment!

See also: the mid-twenties lads playing outdoor table tennis in the snow last Sunday at 10:30am...kind of think that in a different year they might have been making different choices about their weekend activities? :)

Makes sense. Especially since no one is allowed to travel for exercise...

Uh-huh. It's like... X-box or local park.
