Yes, the yellow caution ribbons are gone. Playground equipment out-of-bounds for months is again available to children in London neighbourhoods. And not a minute too soon I might add. Kids need exercise.
Balancing the threat of COVID-19 with the healthy promise of ample outdoor exercise was tough. I'm not sure the right balance was struck but we may have to weigh our options again at some point in the future. This viral battle is not over.

I agree and am still keeping my distance. I believe we will have a second lockdown.
You might very well be right. We don't seem to be learning how to deal with this pandemic very quickly. Our local medical officer waffled on the question of masks until this weekend. He highly recommended wearing a mask when shopping. He argued that masks cut the rate of transmission. But, despite all that, he refused to make them mandatory -- not enough science behind them in his mind. Huh? Four Ws: Wear a mask, Watch your distance to others, Wash your hands often and Wipe surfaces that may be contaminated. If we all followed the 4-Ws, we beat this virus. Good luck. Stay safe.
