I’m back in quiet hometown village right now, where there’s a quiet skate park at normal times, so I’d imagine it’s dead right now.
Would popping down there for an hour on my board for a bit of exercise be seen as taking the p1ss? Obviously if it’s busy I’d go home but you could easily have 5 people down there and obey social distancing still at least.
Thoughts? |  |

Funnily enough, 'too cool for school' sneering at people enjoying themselves is also for teenagers. |
I think cricket is sh1t but I don’t feel the need to remind everyone who loves it that I believe it makes them incredibly dull. | |

There is a simple decision tree for things like this:
1) Is it essential?
2) Will it get you off TWTD for an hour or two? |  | | |

Yeah, but you've got have some standards though.
American Football is TERRIBLE and I will never understand why people want to watch so many adverts with their sport. |  |

You’re entitled to that opinion. You are wrong, but you are entitled to it. | |

You've gone too far now, up to your bedroom and have along good think about what you've done. |  |

I imagine skate parks are supposed to be closed too.
I’ve been threatening to make a crossfit rig in the backyard for a while now, this might tip me over the edge and do it! |
I'd like one of these in my garden if possible...

How dare you. Waiting for the NFL draft later this month is the only thing keeping me sane. |  | | |

Shame about surfing. I could go down to the local beach here and there’d be no more than a few out, very far apart. People would be closer standing on their doorsteps clapping for the NHS. And it’s a better form of exercise than jogging (surfing, not clapping!).
It’s a bit frustrating, as there are many things you should be able to do legitimately except for judgemental busy bodies grassing people up or an overzealous police not enforcing the law properly. |
Not sure that's the point though. I would like to open my beach hut today and am certain it will be empty along the seafront as everyone else will do the correct thing and stay home. However, why shouldn't everyone else then also be allowed to go if I can. Hopefully this will pass in the next few months and we can get out before the best of summer is over. | | | |

That’s not a relevant comparison though, as going down to a beach hut isn’t a form of exercise (unless the door is jammed and takes ages to open!). I haven’t been surfing this year, but often in the past I see fewer people doing that than I do walking around the block. It’s not inherently social. It can be, but that side is obviously covered by the ban on group gatherings, the same way that park runs are now banned. Yet we’re still allowed to go running alone - many sports you can do alone without having to travel.
It’s not a biggy, I’ve just noticed there are some inconsistencies that defy logic. Blanket rules lead to these inconsistencies, but I suppose using discretion would be a harder way to police things. |  |

My mate has built a little mini 2 ft ramp in his garden out of some old bits laying about.

Not quite the same feat but I’m pretty jealous of it.
Note the rescue chickens too. All about that vegan skate lifestyle. | |

My boys went out on their bikes and I dusted off my old Toy Machine and skated along with them. Was brilliant fun, totally took my mind off things. |  |

Saw that last week, a man can dream.
Since moving back this way I’ve had a few skates, most enjoyable. | |
