I also love in Cumbria (West). We are social distancing , but will do things like take a flask out and have in the car. Drove to Keswick yesterday , with idea to park near the lake. Keswick was rammed with people , market was on , lots of people coming out of the shops. Crazy.
Have been to Keswick when the market's on, can imagine what that was like! One of my favourite places, businesses are going to be so hard hit there over this spring/summer aren't they.
A drive to picnic in the car at a beauty spot is a good idea, wondered about driving DCs out to the coast at the start of the Easter hols. To stay in the car but see the sea, they love going out there. I worry about them not getting out of the city at all for weeks/months, we normally visit my parents in the lakes regularly but need to socially distance (though I'll see they're alright for shopping and be in constant touch online/by phone). Hard for everyone.
My street here in Carlisle is so quiet today, normally busy with pedestrians and traffic even on a Sunday. Been pottering round in my little front garden and it's just been me out mainly. A good thing people are taking the advice but eerie as well. Haven't been in to the city centre so don't know how busy that is. Just walking school run and driving to supermarket and vet this week. Staying home otherwise.
