I will be going to clubs and festivals so nope

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

no

[Ammi]

…in some situations, yes…similar to Annie…my mum is extremely vulnerable and for a year now we’ve been told these things help in reducing transmission so it’s something that I’ll continue for the moment at certain times and in some situations etc…frequent hand sanitising as well is something that I’ll continue …


…I’ve never worn one for full days for work, though and day after day…so I do understand what Jordan says and he’s screaming…get it off, get it off, get it off….…

Just saw them talking about this on GMB (it's the only morning show I can watch here) and I'm astonished, they're removing all restrictions but also just "expecting" people to wear masks on enclosed areas without it being enforced. Bizarre. Things should be getting stricter with the amount of cases over there.

Vaccinations are going great. Cases have been riding a little because of school holidays but it's not out of control either. It's definitely quieter with fewer tourists but it's not barren like I had expected either.

Hi Ammi

Hi Ammi

…yeah, it’s very similar to the things my son has been saying about Spain also…in some ways the quieter times are nice on a personal level but it’s the concern for businesses also…I do hope that those more reliant on tourism get through the difficult financial times….you take care, yeah……

Imagine being such a snowflake you think wearing a face covering in a shop is affecting your freedoms.

Wait until they find out that seatbelts are required by law . Slaves to the system for years and they don’t even know it.

there was a lot of resistance to wearing seatbelts when it first became law, pretty much the same arguments about personal liberty. There was even a market for devices that made it look like you were wearing a seatbelt to passing cops

[Calderyon]

Yes.

I was at the Turkish barber earlier, it was hot in that wee shop and i had to wear my mask till it was my turn then take it off to get my Barnet cut. I was silent waiting and then chatted in the chair. So when its advisory i will not be wearing a mask in there again.

Did the barber have a mask on

[AnnieK]

Looks like you'll be stuck with your mask for a bit longer LT.

[bots]

haha yep, it would seem wee nicki is intending to keep them mandatory in the medium to long term. I'm sure she is thinking of the ex health ministers family and making sure the ppe orders keep rolling in

[Crimson Dynamo]

already i have seen many not wearing masks in shops

this heatwave will see many many more..

i think most people started ignoring restrictions weeks ago. Its certainly my anecdotal observation. They watch the news, they see that millions have been vaccinated including themselves and have said **** it, i'm going to live my life as i want to. I'm not convinced now that there will be the big rise in infections everyone is expecting

expecting double jagged adults to wear a mask all day at work in hot environments is just stupidity

[Withano]

Probably not to be honest

I just can’t imagine intentionally carrying a mask around after that date

[michael21]

Not all have been wearing masks in shops the smaller shop need the money so don't enforce mask wearing


Especially when being Rob
