Not the OP so can’t answer for him, but qualitatively the second (November) lockdown was quite different from the first (March) lockdown—much more leeway given on exercising outdoors, workplaces largely stayed open (even if people were working from home). In March, police officers would move people along if they were sitting on a park bench (as that’s not exercise); the second time round things were much less strictly enforced. Rules around forming ‘bubbles’ with other households also didn’t exist in March.
Tier 4 is essentially the same as the November lockdown but you can meet one other person outdoors.
A really key difference between March and November is that schools were open in November but not March. Though the UK is now in a third lockdown, and it looks like schools won’t be re-opening
