It is people taking the p*ss like last weekend flocking to beauty spots that authorities are trying to prevent, not an individual walking their dog alone away from anyone else.
That's true to a degree mate, but just to add some clarity to it, alone or not you are not allowed to drive to the hills to walk your dog.

Aye, but keep in mind they are doing a lot of these policies on the hoof and trying to make things that will work for people and be adhered to yet still have a meaningful impact. So although by the letter of the law you could do that, from a point of view of trying to pull together and do the best you can to reduce the chance of spreading the virus, you shouldn't. A lot of the choices we make for the future will need to be based on that, not just what can we legally get away with.
