So they have issued a licence with "And Then Nene" as your home town? Even so, you have filled in the fields. Has anyone obtained a licence by being totally up front and insisting on the truth, i.e. they don't have a postal address? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite the obvious error in your comment above, you appear to be suggesting that because your daughter is one of the 0.1% of the population who live in a high-rise, the government’s advice on social distancing is wrong. Amazing logic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No gatherings over 2 people Glad we have a garden Yes I agree. you and I are very lucky. Being locked up in a high rise flat will be horrendous. my dreadful choice was my fab boat on a fabulous mooring or this detached cottage with large garden in a lovely village. I came to the house as it would have remained empty and some scumbags would have broken in. Many will have a horrible time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might have a fair long walk to get any decent food in. Recent experience is that all our local shops are rubbish, no stock, people standing considerably closer than 2m, Morrisons, Sainsbury, Teco, Waitrose , maybe Asda is OK I havent tried there I can't imagine your village shop is any worse in fact probably much better particularly if they only have one or two customers at any one time.

Will I be able to get garden peat and plants delivered????? Anyone know where I can find the small print??
