    Yes how is your Local area reacting since last Weekend? * Weekend as I call it.
    Well here in Greater Llandudno where in I live the reaction is far more positive.The vast majority if not all are shopping sensibly in all 3 major Supermarkets.
    All the people I have seen out walking are showing true respect to this. And no groups of children in my immediate area,cannot speak for entire area on that one? However must have improved for at the Weekend and Monday in greater area there were complaints of children in groups,none since that I have heard from.
    Not say my area is perfect but the reaction is noticeably much better.
    From my local
    Patch where I leave early in the morning for now ,just one daily Big walk of course with Ruby Roo i get a good view of Llandudno from above and seafront is very very quiet,scattered spaced poeple.
    How are your areas doing??

    Live in a relatively small coastal town, about 11,000 people. Haven't seen anything concerning, have been to the chemist and everyone queued with the appropriate social distancing. Although the health centre had to put a post on social media reminding people not to ask "stupid questions" and have huge signs outside explaining everything :56:

    There is park a stones throw from my house I expected to see kids kicking a ball about but no, nothing like that.

    Also, yesterday there was police van doing the rounds. My street is pretty quiet but still saw it pass a few times and when the mrs was out for a walk in the afternoon they had a good look at her too when they passed.

    Better than I expected anyway. Only folk I’ve seen out are fellow dog walkers or folk in cars. And folk are crossing the road rather than walking past one another.

    It's like a ghost town here. When you do meet people they appear nervous and not their natural selves. We awkwardly dance around each other in the street. I find it amazing that so many are actually complying

    Could be wrong but i think the numbers coming out of Italy and Spain have really hit home the seriousness of the situation, death on this scale hasn't been seen since the second world war.

    Behaviour is pretty much exemplary and I’m personally shocked.

    Thought I’d see all sorts of numpties charging about acting the goat.

    I think/hope it’s making a huge difference.

    Twice I've been out in since the lockdown on the 13th the shops have been fine. Got stopped by the police going to the chemist so they are checking everyone.
    My wife works at a supermarket and things have calmed down but they're all fed up dealing with numptys who just refuse to follow the guidelines without complaining or 70 year olds who come to shop 4 times a day.

    We're up to 19 dead now in Majorca so people are taking it seriously. Especially with the news coming from Madrid.

    Pretty good actually. Place is pretty much dead apart from dog walkers and one or two people going for essentials. All shop workers are wearing masks and gloves and only allowing 2 in at a time, with set out places to stand while being served etc.
