Are masks working? Things don’t seem to have gotten any better since we’ve had to wear them.

Will take a good couple of weeks to start seeing any differences

They will when everybody, or as close to everybody as possible, follows the advice.

Very high percentage of considerate people in Tesco earlier today, it has to be said.

Although I had a Covid related 'symptom' at said store. The antibac gel in the foyer was at eye level so I put my hands under and a jet of the stuff hit me straight in the eye.

Bastard stung for a few seconds, I can tell you



Wore off surprisingly quickly however, and at least I know my left eye is now Covid secure.

Have you seen people wearing them, I mean, properly. Noses visible, taking them off to talk, putting them around the chin when at the checkouts.

The day after they became compulsory some old nag was bemoaning other people for not wearing them but frequently pulling hers down just to gossip. Was also blathering about the war making trite comparisons. She must have meant the Falklands as she wasn't old enough to have been around in WWII
