In your area? Haven't seen many people not wearing them in shops in mine, the only ones really are the odd small child

Yes its rare to see someone without. Its become almost a fashion trend I think. There are some really lovely ones. Mine is a brightly coloured floral one. I have a plain blue one for a spare when I'm washing the other. X

Yes, we've had to use masks here for quite a while now and you just don't get to enter any buildings if you're not wearing one. I see people wearing them in the open air too, which is quite nice to see.

I think I've only come across 5 who haven't been.
I've been pleasantly surprised to see so many wearing them.
...there have been a few people not masked that I’ve seen, but not many...I was at the supermarket earlier and I maybe saw 5/6 people not wearing none in quite a busy store/...the busiest I’ve seen it in ages ....so those guidelines are being fairly much adhered to...the coming within an inch of your face because a mask is worn, is not going so well though...a guy today had a mask on but he leaned over so close, our hair kind of brushed and touched and I felt quite ‘frozen’ by it for some reason...he was wearing camouflage stuff and looked a bit like Rick Grimes as well, so he obviously had no fear...
I love wearing mine. Shame not everyone feels the same! But definitely about 90-95% compliance amongst adults from what I've seen. People not wearing masks on buses and in big supermarkets stick out like a sore thumb.

Same for me. I wouldn’t want to be that person in the shop who isn’t wearing one because of the amount of looks you get :laugh:. It’s only like the odd 1 adult and mainly young children who I don’t see wearing them.

...yeah, I don’t mind wearing mine either, Jigs...actually it saves me having to apply the lip gloss/lipstick now if I’m wearing one...I’m not a ‘browser’ with it though, I have to say..I plan my route carefully for the quick grab/checkout /and gone...

Pretty much 99 per cent compliance, nice to see little kids wearing them too even though they don’t have to

95% are tbf. People are telling me stories about how less than half will wear theirs in bigger supermarkets in their areas.

Yeah. Although two older women walked in asda before without them on and quickly got stared out by people before they popped them on
Either they forgot and realised or they were trying to get away with it

They probably forgot.......I just walked to our local Asda as its such a nice day, got halfway there and realised my mask was in my car :fist: Bloody exercise will be the death of me :laugh:

I see a lot of people that do not, with the main offenders being teenagers and older people. I see far more older people not wearing masks than anyone else though.

It’s about 50/50% here in Manchester for shops, Half of customers don’t wear a mask
Manchester people in general seem to think they’re above everyone else so it makes sense I guess. Also probably why Manchester has the highest r rate and the lockdown..

I'd say easily 95%+, not including people who have simply forgotten.
I did walk into and half way round Pets @ Home last week without a mask on, wondered why I was getting weird looks from staff and went back to the car to get it :omgno:. They must have thought I was some sort of chavvy anti-masker :(

but then this is a nice area where people are considerateI have the joy of living in a nice area where there's currently a bit of construction going on, so I get to see all of the Glasgow commuters in suits and folks on their way from the school run to the cafe or Yoga, scowling at the tradies with their dirty hands and lack of mask. It's quite funny in all honesty. "Can they not read the sign??", they scoff "under their breath" but actually so loud you can hear them at the other side of the shop.
Obviously they should be wearing masks but I'm pretty torn because there are some right arseholes round 'ere.
No they ain't, the worst places are roadside petrol station shops. Especially today, but I guess its still hot..
Maybe people will pop them on to keep warm in a few weeks. You lot bullied me into wearing a mask, and I'm glad you did.
I want to shout at everyone in the shop now but I cant cause you would all bully me again for being racist if I described the story to you.
