@Virgil yeah, I think people in NYC understand cos it's so bad there, but others still don't get it. Another aspect is that everything that is happening is from two weeks ago, so the longer they don't shut down, the worse it will be.
Can we put transgressors in stocks on the back of a ute, people can throw rotten fruit from an acceptable social distance.

Just got back from supermarket. Went 150 mins ago. Queue was 400m long through social distancing and limited people allowed in.
Very very civil and behaved. Everyone seems to be acting like adults should. It was nice, despite the wait to get in.
That's quite a long wait. One of Mrs CFs mates went to NZ Eastridge and there was a 2 hour wait. I need to think about the best time to go. First ting is too obvious, maybe near close...

First thing is a no go as it's for elderly and those with underlying health problems.

Mrs TR went this morning, said all very civilised, people maintaining distances, shelves full.

Right, I am having a few beers and trying to get to that level where you play outstanding pool.
I have to deal with an agitated Bull and need the beer for Courage and Dexterity/Timing. Have to try and get the Hip Cradle off him and his horns are a bit tasty.
Key is not to have the one beer too many where it all turns to custard.

Best post this morning by far

I think it depends on each store. I will choose the lesser used one in our suburb, knowing that the main one supplies a far bigger area and will be gutted anyway

@Machpants @canefan Has there been a directive to stay off the water? Or just the general instruction to stay local? I ask because exercise remains so important right now. We are into day 11 of our self iso, which is pretty much what the rest of the country is on now. And we are finding it pretty mentally debilitating TBH! Exercise is the one sanity check, that daily run for me plus a walk with the family, always being careful where we go etc.
But there are plenty of people who can't run for injury reasons, or don't have a garden to walk around etc.), and I would have thought they could easily maintain distance out there?
Does SUP'ing have a high instance of requiring assistance (serious question) ? People getting into trouble for example? Or do lifeguards have to monitor them? Obviously you don't want to endanger someone elsr if they got into trouble.

All Lifeguards are stood down and clubs closed. Only the coastguard is in operation and they are clear they don't want anyone in the water. Their argument is that even the best prepared excursion into the water can sometimes go pearshaped and they don't want to unnecessarily be put into danger and unable to achieve social distancing
