hi Trev,
Yes, on reading the article given as reference, The limit of groups of 10 people meeting applies until 24th June. So I think that must include restaurants as well.

I know a restaurant that we like and use, has declared today that they will not be opening until September. They are however continuing to do Takeaway ...
This is the Paradise Restaurant in Chloraka ..

Probably because space there is limited for social distancing....
i wonder if 'Tweedies' in Kissonerga will be also unable to open for the same reason?

Will the gyms operate as usual? How do you keep a distance e. g. in the changeroom/shower area?

It is indeed a large store with many many narrow alleyways between all their stock. This is especially so on the ground floor making your way to the cash desk .

Yes, Sports Direct tends to cram stock in on the ground floor. It would be wise to plan a visit there to times in the day when they are unlikely to be busy and to avoid Saturdays..

Sports Direct is a large store on two floors.
Is it not 3 floors?

I think technically one of them would be a Mezzanine.

Which floor would you class as mezzanine?

The little one. I may be wrong, I thought there was a smaller level up top for women's shoes. I always head downstairs.
I didn't even know mezzanine was a thing until I worked at Canary Wharf while they were building it. I had to go to a site office on the mezzanine level and had no idea what they meant.
What a sheltered, mezzanine-free life I had led until then.
