Yesterday in Tenerife we were 'released' after a seven week lockdown, non of the relative freedom enjoyed in the uk. We now have time slots for take off, sorry to go out for walks and yes the 'oldies' (70 and over) have a different time to others. Being an oldie my time was from 10.00 til 12.00. and whilst the social distancing was maintained without exception all those that I encountered were happy, smiling and generally pleased to be out in the fresh air.
So in answer to the post by FFMAN, my experience was not of 'paranoid oldies' but quite the contrary. Probably tempered with the knowledge that the severe restrictions of the lockdown had produced the results of a much reduced infection and death rate.
Stay safe everyone, we will get through it !!
