Should I move this weekend

I moved away from my home town for a job. Well all be working remotely online.

I live alone down here and can’t drive. I could walk to a large supermarket from here but not carry a huge amount would have to travel by bus or taxi if there are any.

I have any option of going back to my hometown. I’d be nearer my parents who drive but not living with them. I wouldn’t be able to walk to the shops. However parents would then only be 20 miles away.

My problem is I don’t know what lockdown would mean. If my parents could come and take me to the shops as often as allowed I’d go, but would it be necessary? If I’m only allowed out once every two/three weeks I won’t have transport to either shops. I know more people in hometown who could help. Moving would be hard but do-able. Need to set up WiFi/tv, basics

My parents are both over 70 so full isolation.

I also don't have a car and can only buy what I can carry. I just go to the supermarket several times a week on foot. That in itself is not a reason to move. I think if you could move to be closer to your parents that is a good reason.

My parents are in full lock down so not going out. My worry is when we all go fully into lockdown so only allowed to shop occasionally.
