In addition to the obvious:

Museums and galleries. I often combine a business visit to county towns with a nip to at least one.

Gardens. Meeting up with a friend or a colleague from the second job for a coffee and a wander.

The beach! I always drive out to the beaches between lambings.

Being guilt tripped into visiting the remaining older relatives [Edit: Weird, TFF's automodding protocols. I'm sure I typed something else there.]

I surmised they are shut? Seeing as McDonald’s and greggs have...I’ve not left the farm all week so not checked

Local chippy and kebab place next door are still open, enforcing the 2 meter etc rules but everyone is complying with that anyway.

How long for who knows!

But maccy d could open their drive thru, they only shut it because by doing that they can claim the 80% wage thing, if they kept the drive thru open they would have to pay all the staff on the restaurant side their full wages even thou they cant work.

This where the rules fall down - can still pop to chippy for fish and chips, yet "all non essential travel should be avoided".

Buying your fish and chips isn't a problem as long as distances kept, and clean hands.

It's taking your fish and chips to the beach to eat, for example, that's not permitted for now.

Missing my daughter, her mother (my ex) decided to take her off to a caravan of a friend in Wales on Sunday night, despite my best efforts to keep her here.
Naturally its all back fired, the site has now been closed and they've been send packing, I understand they are back home in town now, and she's very bored.
I'm not sure what the implications are for having her back, but hopefully I will see her soon.
