Just in case any one missed it, the UK is now officially in "lockdown". This is in order to slow the spread of COVID-19 and hopefully prevent the NHS becoming overloaded with critically ill people. Prime Minister Boris Johnson said in his 2020-03-23 TV speech, that people will be allowed to leave home only for the following reasons:

  • shopping for necessities, as infrequently as possible
  • one form of exercise a day, such as running or cycling, alone or with household members
  • for medical or care needs, for example to help a vulnerable person
  • travelling to and from work, but only if you cannot work from home.
Meeting friends, shopping for anything beyond essentials, and gathering in crowds are now banned, with fairly substantial fines for those who break the new emergency regulations. Therefore, if you are still considering shooting then you may wish to study this carefully, and perhaps reconsider your position...
