I was annoyed to learn that when our store opens to the public, we will not be requiring customers to wear face masks. This is made worse by seeing the customers going to the stores that are open, only about a quarter of whom (and I am probably being generous here) could be bothered to wear masks or even to take basic social distancing measures.

I'm a bit shocked to note that roughly half of all customers at my supermarket do, in fact, wear masks -- and often ugly home-made ones like my own. As long as we feel protected, people don't seem to care what they look like, which is half the battle. (The other half would be machismo.)

Fleeting visit bimble? Or are you taking up residency? How's Facebook these days? I should imagine I'll be around for a while! I don't do the XTC facebook pages, and most of my small group of FB friends are remaining sanguine! Oh well. Hope all is ok-ish.

People are acting like idiots unfortunately, not everyone, just enough to make me dig in on the isolating for now. I shop weekday mornings when the stores are empty. Still haven't done takeout yet. Older people almost all wear masks. Middle aged men and 20 somethings, not so much.

I live in a region where Covid has dropped off dramatically, so I've noticed a concomitant mask-doffing effect. Plus, the temperature has been blisteringly hot. You hope there is no second wave, but things aren't looking very promising in that regard.

I don't mind a second wave as long it is like this.
