The first lockdown, the roads were dead - yet you could still do all the stuff you've listed above. We also still drove out to some nearer woods, rather than walk in the busy park at the end of the road. So our behaviour hasn't changed compared to April, but clearly a lot of others has.
A personal difference for me is in the first lockdown I couldn't go swimming outdoors (West Reservoir mostly for me at the moment). I can at the moment and am doing so. I was going by bike or train but it's a little bit chilly at the moment and I'm not keen on trains right now so I'm driving.

Yeah - it was just an observation really, rather than a rant.
The concern I have is around why Tier 4 restrictions (and the Tier 3 that preceded) seem to not be working and what it will take to get them to work. This thread is pretty terrifying - https://twitter.com/chrischirp/status/1345834332183785472
We've got this new superspreadable variant, and at the same time, I think a the number of people who are nowhere near as "locked down" as they were the first time around, are up and about and doing stuff they perhaps shouldn't.
