No. I just follow the rules and do it. 1.5 - 2 metres apart everywhere.

... or ten times that distance from anyone coughing and/or sneezing.

Don't touch anything .... no seats, handrails, doorknobs, anything other people may have touched.

Damn, I never thought that anyone would spot my breathing kit, grey hair, wobbly legs, forgetting brain, etc.

My ride on buggy?

Does that mean if you’re not wearing a ribbon it entitles idiot people to walk close by to you. I shall continue to self distance.
I think that’s enough.

Razor wire would work better. Especially around a "vegetable trolly" aka mobility scooter.

We have a rescue dog, of which the breed has a reputation.

On our morning walks we find people respect our space, by 3 to 4 m minimum.... If only Asda would allow dogs in

Re: Would You Wear Ribbons To Indicate You Are Social Distancing?

Not many people know about the Yellow dog project.

It's a national awareness of Dogs waring yellow neck scarves, to indicate/warn other dog owners, to keep clear as the Dog has issues, aggression, in season, recovering from illness/operation and such.

A good idea you would have thought, but either people don't know of this or they're bothered......until your dog has a go that is.

You can breach the rules provided you practise the Houdini Breathing Technique.

I don't subscribe to the ''victim mentality''.
