That actually happened in England a few months ago: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9165019/We-dont-watch-news-Lockdown-flouting-revellers-claim-ignorance-global-pandemic.html

"Lockdown-flouting revellers told police they had no idea there was a pandemic on because 'we don't watch the news' when their party was busted on Saturday night."

Seems legit.

So do you believe that all construction is open as you've claimed in the past?

So in summary:

Would anyone like to venture how the Gardai are going to police this county only travel from next week?

That's just a collection of lunatics. Most people will ditch them ASAP.

I’ll always fondly remember asking one of them mask loving numpties to produce some science to back up their claim of the effectiveness of masks to stop transmission of covid..... they pm’d me a “cartoon graphic” of droplets going into a maskless persons mouth.
Science indeed !

I'd imagine it'll be like the current people meeting up indoors, the larger groups outdoors, hairdressers open, and other "restrictions" not being adhered to... they'll either stop policing it or turn a blind eye...

Nothing is open - so what's the actual harm of traveling outside the 5k/20k/county... probably at no risk - compared to going shopping, meeting friends or family indoors, etc...

I'll be back on the road anyway this Friday - and will use any of the "exemptions" listed on gov.ie if stopped. Hmmm, grave, funeral or wedding this week.

Idiotic "rule" anyways...

They won't, considering you can travel 20km into a neighbouring county as well.

As far as I recall they've already said it'll be pretty much unmanageable once the 5km limit is removed.

And they ignore Peru, Spain, France, Italy, the Philippines, New York, and California all having the highest case and death numbers in the world while also having the strictest mask laws in the world.

Isn't it only supposed to be for exercise - not travel, per-se?
No matter - I won't be adhering to it.

Must check RIP.ie for a funeral 'to crash' this weekend...

Exercise is a loose term. If you park the car and walk 2 minutes to get to the beach where you then sit for 4 hours, the 2 minutes was exercise.

You're allowed to meet one other household outdoors for socialising so I figure you can travel for those purposes as well.

And I just heard on the radio that Peru has the highest per capita death rate in the world. It also has, along with Spain and the Philippines, the strictest mask policy in the world. But that will just be ignored.

No

Because of the success in reducing case numbers, we are now in a position to review the 5km travel limit for people. From 12 April, that limit will no longer apply, and people may travel within their county for exercise and recreation

Jaysus, very poor choice of words.

If its being ignored (which it should be given the other vast issues it has) how did you hear it?

I mean by those who won't hear a bad word said against masks.

They don't seem to be policing any travel at the moment.
Went through the checkpoint outside Maynooth a good few times over the weekend, they weren't stopping anyone.
I think the one near me down on the coast road in Clontarf is gone (at least hasn't been there when I have been passing).

The new travel limits also apply to recreational activities, not just exercise. Or so Leo says

I think there's a thread for all these 'words' on masks.

This isn't the thread for it, you're right, so I'll park it. I tried discussing it in the mask thread, but I got the impression discussion wasn't welcome there.

But let's move on.

Looks like outdoor Hospitality and Hairdressers etc will reopen in the north before the end of the month

I presume they'll keep some checkpoints open coming up to weekends at border crossings like the N7 checkpoint next to Blackchurch just before Kildare and in Limerick just before the Castletroy exit onto the M7.

That check point at the Blackchurch inn was a waste of time. Cant turn anyone around where its situated. Just there to annoy people

Genuine question: How do you know which "younger people" you see out and about in public have underlying conditions as opposed to those with "pure paronia"?

I don't know that why I said if they are wearing a mask outdoors and don't have any underlying condition it's pure paranoia. I've seen too many people wearing a mask outside at this stage for them all to have an underlying condition. Mind it seemed to peak in popularity in my area about two months ago in Jan/Feb and I don't see it too regularly anymore.

That's good to know. Even though we can go county wide from Monday I still don't really want to be stopped by the police if I am travelling outside 5km from the 12th..

They are opening in England on the 12th of April, so I would be surprised if they don't open up north on the 26th or before.

the North definitely doesn't follow England..

Last summer England opened in July, we opened in September..for a few weeks before closing again..
