Genuine question, I'm not seeking to be clever or undermine government rules.
A real-life example of why I'm asking the question, I'm a member of several classic car clubs, all have cancelled all events at the start of lockdown, but in recent weeks a couple have tentatively looked to organise socially distant events along the lines of car runs where individuals head towards a common destination.
At the destination, typically a pub, members, as individuals, enter pub/beer garden as customers and comply with all required social distancing rules including giving contact details. Collectively the group attendance will exceed 6, so is that a gathering or a group of individuals?
As a result of the change to calling any more than 6 a gathering one club has cancelled a trip, while the other is going ahead with theirs. Different, well-intentioned interpretations of the same rules
