What's classes as non essential social gatherings? Can I still meet friends with my toddler?

We usually go to baby groups then for a coffee. Baby groups are now cancelled and I'm not sure I'm happy to go for a coffee now either, not sure I want to go to peoples houses either! So is a meet up for a walk safe?

Are people avoiding friends now?

'Not a proper christening' he said. Oh do fuck off.

Hi Orange89, we hope you don't mind but we have withdrawn your post as you mentioned you'd posted it on the wrong board.

We're hoping everyone can remain optimistic.

Sorted and cancelledSmile sil facetimed and dp mentioned parish sec ringing. I interrupted to say i think we need to cancel etc. Dp actually has seen sense agreed with me.
As suspected sil pushing for it. Dp chewed her out when she started suggesting babysitters for the other 2 kids we cant take in. Fking stupid woman. I reminded her mil had already baptised them when she pulled the 'this could go on for months and them boys need christened' crap.

I run with my friend. I think I should be stopping that and running solo. Is that right?
