When you organise a party for a special occasion and invite friends round to social distance in your garden 6 at a time.
The first 6 have left now and they were lovely but now the next 6 have arrived and I cant wait for them to leave and the next 6 to come

It will really go pear-shaped when it turns out that one of your current guests is a member of AB too and he/she spots this thread online ;-)
You are lucky you can think of 18 people you want to socialise with. ;)
It could go even further pear-shaped though when one of your neighbours spots your gathering and remembers that the limit of 6 people applies to the entire group size (including yourself) and reports you to the local plod for having one too many people in your garden.

The blue lights are already flashing, Bob!

When asked if it was acceptable to do this a journalist was told no, it should be a total of six in one day... Just saying

Clearly not a journalist from the Spectator, rowanwitch
//When asked if it was acceptable to do this a journalist was told no, it should be a total of six in one day.//

I wonder who told the journalist that. Whoever it was they were wrong. You can change your five fellow guests as often as you like. So long as no more than six people are "gathered" together at any one time then it's within the law.
Have the last 6 arrived yet? What are they like?
Get a turnstile on the gate and charge admission Bob.

22.13 "Then it;s within the law" Is that within the law of the Land,or the Law of coronavirus . Think about it N/J.

The last 6 who become 5 are lovely and I felt so guilty turning one of them away but he understood and now we are sitting in my garden under my 30 square meter gazebo keeping 2 meters afart and watching the rain
You'd need to keep 2 metres afart!
Windy there then?
