IS the lockdown actually over?

It certainly would appear to be where I live which is in Lilliput, Poole.

The stream of cars going down Sandbanks Road today towards the dead end of the peninsula appears now to be constant and certainly not like it was last week when the police were actually stopping people.

In Wiltshire, my mother remains in her house locked down and without being able to see anybody and has remained so for the past five weeks. Next door to me in Poole there at least seven builders working in a single house, which makes a mockery of the sacrifice that other people are making in order to prevent the spread of this terrible disease.

People need to be reminded that they only travel if it is necessary. Vast swathes of residents and car drivers around me appear to have forgotten this. Somebody for goodness sake remind them before we have another peak of deaths.
