That's a relief!!! With this unseasonal superb wx forecast, we're doing the same tomorrow, at Blakeney! Need to think of a food shop en route now!!
Seriously though, in the van we have no need to be near anyone, certainly well outside 2m, we saw 2 other couples in about 5 miles of beach this morning, all walking dogs, miles apart from each other and us. scratch head

Have seen a number of 'headlines' on t'Internet this morning regarding motor insurance during lockdown:

...."Anybody caught make any non-essential journeys in England could land themselves with a £200 fine.
And according to the Mirror, making a non-essential car journey during lockdown could also prove to be a costly mistake, as your insurance could be invalid if you have an accident"...

The advice is to contact your insurer if you make a 'non-essential' journey!

I would take that 'advice' with a huge pinch of salt.
Insurance is an agreement between underwriters and client based on the risk involved. I'd like to know in what way do these 'headlines' alter that risk?
Like lots of reports during this pandemic, it's just scaremongering.

Yes, I tend to agree. Not sure how enforceable this would be and whether it is 'legal' under the present legislation for Covid? Hope it's not tested in the courts however!
