Made an appointment, got a text message back that they insisted I wore a mak for the eye test (fair enough, no problem with that). Got there, wore a mask, unlike most of those who were there. Pointless insisting on the wearing of one, then not enforcing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odds on police being called if I rock up at asda on my own with no face mask? Relatively high I imagine but I won’t be going to places that require a mask simple as that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And to keep the peace I’ve agreed I just won’t go into shops up here and she will take over shopping duties. When I’m back down the road I can shop to my hearts content. i just think it’s a very ill thought out rule and it makes no sense to apply it as they have Fancy the lovely Nicola being over officious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Spider Posted July 6, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted July 6, 2020 We weren't supposed to drive half way across the country because we were bored of looking after our kids, but the people who came up with the rules were amongst the first to break them, so it became a free for all.

Mounts Kipper Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 (edited) Boris got this completely wrong, deflecting blame, poor poor comments and the unsung heroes of the virus are care home nurses. He needs to apologise quickly and mean it and accept the governments part in the care home shit show.

peelyfeet Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 You might save someone, including yourself or a family member, from being seriously ill, or dying if you wear a face covering, regardless of what the guidance is or where you are when you wear it. That's all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
