Changes to lockdown rules mean you'll be able to read a book on the Common for the first time in seven weeks. You'll also be able to have picnics, play some outdoor sports with your households, and drive to the beach.

This has thrown up some rather bizarre ways that people could either take advantage of the rules unfairly, or be disadvantaged by them unfairly. Health Secretary Matt Hancock insisted the rules made sense - and that people should judge once they've driven somewhere whether they can be properly socially distanced.
