Dear Sir,
I don’t usually contact newspapers, but I feel so strongly about this that I just HAD to. My husband and I have been following the government advice and staying at home. We sat in the garden this afternoon (after all, it was a nice day), to get some fresh air. Imagine then, our disbelief when we realised that TWO sets of neighbours in adjoining properties were entertaining visitors, family/friends in their gardens, despite the stay at home advice. This was wrong on so many levels:
One visitor was obviously a grandma – she was putting herself and her family at risk!
Government advice is for everyone to stay home unless for important reasons I have diabetes and am at risk of complications if I get the virus. I was social distancing in my own garden and yet these people were putting me at risk, wandering close to the fence near our garden.
These rules are for EVERYONE, stay at home, means exactly that!
