    So places with no supermarket within 2km do what for food?

    He didn’t say you couldn’t travel more than 2km from your home. That was specifically referring to exercise.

    Proud of these actions.
    Feel it's right.
    Good timing before the weekend and just after the applause last night.
    Back in our hands to make the difference.

    It's next level from where we are.

    We can all do this.

    Hahaha Leo just quoted Terminator: "There's no fate but what we make for ourselves."

    I really hope that was deliberate.

    it's possible to move within 2 km of your house. That's it.

    Walk 2km from your house and 2 back i suppose. 4km of a walk in reality. Some might do it twice a day. Loopholes, loopholes......

    Jaysus. We’re in the **** now.

    I don't think much is changing dramatically. More drumming home the message about non-essential activities/journeys. Some people needed it, the way things were carrying on. Zero tolerance policy in particular towards teenagers, who are especially fond of banding together.

    Of course shopping being exempt means that blanch will be jammers tomorrow. Be interesting to see how full howth (etc) is on a sunny day tomorrow. Cant see the Irish police policing this fully.

    In some areas in Italy you're not allowed to go 200 metres (not 2000) beyond your house. It's monitored with drones.

    Only one person per household is allowed to go shopping. And in some areas they are delivering face masks to each household.

    It's a fine art and I imagine it takes a lot of hard work to master. They deserve every penny.

    What a ridiculous and strange comment to make.
