No I wouldn’t.
People can meet up with 1 person now and I don’t see the difference of meeting someone in a park 2 metres apart or in their garden 2 metres apart.

KitNCaboodle · 16/05/2020 11:02

Maybe they’re viewing their house.

BossAssBitch · 16/05/2020 11:03

One person? No, of course not.

Don’t be a dick

Get a life Hmm

Mrsjayy · 16/05/2020 11:03

Nah I can't be arsed worrying about other people and what they are too, if you are concerned report them they might get a fine then what somebody else in your street has a visitor.

Who has time for all this sticky beaking? My living room is at the back of the house. Grin

Nicknacky · 16/05/2020 11:04

Mrsjayy They can’t get a fine. There is no offence committed.

vodkaredbullgirl · 16/05/2020 11:04

No

Certainly not … there maybe all sorts of reasons, like your daughter is working from home and not furloughed because she cannot take her daughter to the child minders 'cos it is shut but she can work from home (physically). She is sitting on a ticking time bomb juggling working from home with looking after the child and all the rest that goes with it (with a child of 2) who is restless and wants to integrate. That person needs the support of her mother /father where and when possible purely for the protection of developing mental health issues such as depression due to stress and isolation. There are lots of reasons why people break the rules but sometimes they are necessary (distancing within a home/garden is possible for one or two) … Barbeques with family, mates and others in a group is not acceptable; however. Would I/Wouldn't I, depends on the circumstances. Nothing is pure black/white there are grey areas. I am self-employed and work from home in any case (for the medical sector) so I am used to be on my own. The lack of work currently is very depressing though as I still have bills to pay … but I soldier your on everyday. Positivity is the key to all.

Lardilizard Why exactly are you so obsessed with what others are doing?

Mrsjayy · 16/05/2020 11:07

Isn't a "street party" a gathering? Although I know lockdown restrictions are different in different countries.

Grumpylockeddownwoman · 16/05/2020 11:08

No - unless we are talking massive party in the garden territory.

Nicknacky · 16/05/2020 11:08

Mrsjayy This isn’t a street party?

zscaler · 16/05/2020 11:09

Am no a grass

ParkheadParadise · 16/05/2020 11:11

No

LuaDipa · 16/05/2020 11:11

Absolutely not. If they have respected the rules so far I would assume there is a very god reason. How on earth do you know they have visitors anyway?

LuaDipa · 16/05/2020 11:11

*good obviously.

ReturnofSaturn · 16/05/2020 11:17

Nope. Couldn't give a shiny shit to be honest.

Campervan69 · 16/05/2020 11:19

No. FFS.

Weallhavevalidopinions · 16/05/2020 11:20

No

Lardlizard · 16/05/2020 11:21

Seems like I’m right to swing toward no then

Nicknacky · 16/05/2020 11:22

So why would you even ask the question? Genuinely, what is the matter with you?

And who were you planning to report them to?

Lardlizard · 16/05/2020 11:24

Maybe we are all unsure of the rules atm to be fair it’s as clear as mud 😂

Sparklingbrook · 16/05/2020 11:24

It's way more than a swing TBF.

NiceLegsShameAboutTheFace · 16/05/2020 11:24

No. I'd mind my own business Blush
