chartpolski 23,817 Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 Well, I certainly don't see it as "freedom day" ! The big supermarkets are still requiring a mask, so I don't really see today as any different from yesterday. I still can't go and visit my grandson in Saudi, and he can't visit me here. These are the only things that have affected me during the lockdown, so no change for me today ! Cheers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jonjon79 13,358 Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 I've never really worn one anyway - my job has me outside, away from other people for most of the day and, the local shops have never really enforced it. They put signs up but, they've never asked. ........... I'll probably still put a mask in my pocket if I'm going into a shop - if some old dear looks worried and I can't avoid her, I'll put it on for a bit. I don't mind wearing one if it genuinely puts someone else at ease but, I definitely won't wear one if some little Covid stasi starts acting like a dick. My own feeling on it is that 99% of the masks don't do f**k all anyway - they're a security blanket, no more, no less. It's not natural to walk round with one on your face - your health will benefit from breathing fresh air. It's nicer when you can see someone's face when you speak to them - that said, I don't like having a conversation with someone wearing sunglasses either. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My local Tesco, Asda and Aldi have signs saying "No mask, no entry". Asda used to have the security on the door hand you a free mask if you forgot yours, they charge you for them now. From what I understand, from today, it's up to individual shops to enforce the mask rule. Transport for London is enforcing masks on the tube, but not on trains on main lines, further adding to the confusion. Cheers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

chartpolski 23,817 Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 I went to my local hunt show yesterday and the lady on the gate said " I need your name and phone number for track and trace, it's the law". I gave her a completely fictitious name and number, she didn't ask for proof and waved me through ! More officious nonsense........ Cheers. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They all say that mate, I haven't been in one shop that has governed it though. The only time where we've been asked to wear masks is some pubs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chartpolski 23,817 Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 I'm of the "Angry Young Men " generation, and was a bit of a rebel in my younger days, but these days it's anything for an easy, peaceful life ! ! If wearing a mask for the five or ten minutes it takes me to shop puts some old, worried people at ease, and doesn't put the staff in the invidious position of confronting me, then I'm happy to conform Cheers. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mole trapper 1,693 Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 My serious health issues have not gone away over night, I will continue to keep people away from me where possible and wear a mask. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
