Masks

Quoted from aldi_01

I think we all know the reasons for not sharing data/correct data and the like.

Haven’t there been legal challenges to the lockdown in Leicester?

The handing of power to local council to enforce lockdowns is simply another way of central government shifting responsibility which is consistent with their approach throughout. They’re now doing the same with face masks. If they’re so important it’s 4 months too late.

People can try and say that it’s been made clear why and where but it’s easy to see why folk are just sick to death with it all. Wear one. Don’t wear one. We can enforce it. Police won’t. So on and so on.

I’ve seen folk wearing material masks that haven’t seen a washing machine which negates the point. There are people using disposable masks all day when the people that make them and professionals say they have a limited time frame of effectiveness.

Then we have those who simply won’t wear one. We’ve those begrudgingly wearing one. Then we have the potential for the public to turn on itself (government will be loving that) and then multiple shops etc making clear statements that they will simply ask but not challenge because , understandably, they realise it’s actually putting their staff at risk and isn’t their job to enforce the law.

All in all, as with the whole thing, it’s a clusterfuck.

Anyway, back to GTFC masks, I’ve heard several folk saying they’re on the tight side. Could it be the material? Are the designed for people with tiny heads?

It was somewhat ironic that on the same day masks in shops became compulsory, the ONS released statistics that 9 out of 10 of us live in localities that have had no new cases of infection for over four weeks, a situation achieved without the compulsory wearing of masks and largely since the relaxation of distance rules.

So what is the aim, save the economy or ten out of ten? Shoppers in my local Tesco yesterday were all good little citizens with their masks on though there were at a guess 50% less of them than on a usual Friday morning. If that is going to happen places like  Freshney Place will lose a lot more shops.

On the GTFC masks, mine fit alright but they are very warm to wear especially indoors and easily fog the glasses. One other thing, it can be hard to tell what people are saying. In the chemist I had to drop the mask so the assistant could understand clearly what I wanted and though there is a funny side to a lot of this, a pharmacy is not the best place to have misunderstandings.

Cutting a mouth shaped hole around the mouth area cures this problem in 100% of cases.

Don't worry if you look in the Telegraph on a Monday at the usual  photographs taken on a Saturday night and see all the twits hugging and squeezing together at the tables in all the bars down Seaview Street, you'll soon catch up

I know what you mean, I've seen the pictures. Never seen so much cellulite in my life.

Yeah, a similar thing happened to me. I bought a M GTFC home shirt (Lotto/Europe’s Food Town) in 1996 when I was 15 and I tried it on this morning and it’s so tight on me you wouldn’t believe.
