It's not 1990 fgs so no of course I don't own a bandana.jee whizz the very thought makes my head hurt

It's a bit hot for me to be carrying a scarf around and I have a nice silk washable gap mask that looks like a pair of skimpy knickers when on.


The point is...£5 bloody quid for 5 throw away ones in a high street supermarket is disgusting.

Sell by date is july 2022..and they are made in china


Made from high quality non woven fabric..which seems to go out of date by july 2022.


Hmmm..the very date the world gets back to normal no doubt.

Probably inbuilt with corona droplets..probably just paid a fiver to catch corona.

Yes, I'm sure Covid is just a conspiracy to sell disposable masks, that makes so much sense!

Or perhaps the masks aren't needed anymore so the government needs rid of the millions they were forced to buy.

Tom4784 05-08-2020 04:41 PM

Or, perhaps, all those medical experts telling the world to wear a mask are onto something.

Who knows? They're only medical experts after all.

Beso 05-08-2020 04:44 PM

Where have they all suddenly come from?

My expensive pack came from china.

Usually goods are cheaper if made in china.

also you can make own face coverings with a scarf, you can wear sunglasses too (which you'll have now since its summer anyway but protect your eyes too, it can also enter via the eyes)

Masks are to stop you spreading anything to someone else, not to stop you catching it yourself.

Whether it is or it isn't, you're not forced to buy them.

Because you forgot the one you already had. :nono:

I keep a box in my car for things like this.

A sainthood for making my own time at the shops easier?

Sure. :angel:

Beso 05-08-2020 05:39 PM

I need to also say that out of all the different mask I've worn..these ones are the worst for making the looking glasses steam up..even when I pinch.


32 degree on friday though..fantastic for the mask.

Beso 05-08-2020 05:57 PM

Covid 19 key facts that come up on sky says nothing about masks ..

It does say its transmitted by droplets through coughs and sneezes..

Would you sneeze in your mask?

Beso 18-02-2021 11:05 PM

2.99 for 5 now.

Ammi 19-02-2021 05:39 AM

...I always thought that the masks should have been provided free from the government when they became compulsory...maybe society sections do get them free, I hope they do...I don’t know about other countries in Europe but that’s always been the way in Spain, where they were compulsory long before they were here...

I still prefer good reusables. My wife has a massive pack in the car for her work (free), though.
