Yeah I rarely see them in Manchester city centre being worn by anyone other than international students. I always feel like the odd one out when I put one on to go to the shop. Vast majority aren't covering their faces at all. I'd be surprised if 1% of the country are.

When Spain was starting to relax some geographical areas the Government made the wearing of face masks in public places mandatory.
I have to say we rarely see people without one here. People are still afraid of fully relaxing to a new normal even though June 21st marks the end of Government control.
It is important to treat CV with care. Forget what others do it is not macho to do without one, the risk to you and your family is high.

People queuing for hours to get into IKEA, just to get into a shop! We must shop whatever the cost, retail therapy buying stuff makes us whole.

"But Ikea was forced to shut car parks at some stores to help ease pressure.

In Warrington, people arrived at 05:40 to start queuing for the Ikea store to reopen at 09;00.

The company praised shoppers for their patience."

I've never set foot in an IKEA store and probably never will, what's the big attraction?

Why go when the cafe is shut and Swedish Meatballs, Hotdogs and Rollmop herring are not available? Though I guess the Herring was available in the shop.

Yep. Wearing a face covering in an enclosed area MUST be made mandatory.
 
My relationship with this thread reminds me of the way I felt about an ex-girlfriend about five years ago. Started off obsessed, couldn't get enough; then noticed she was a bit erratic and repetitive, and by the end, some three months later, I was looking for the exit door.

Nice girl; a headteacher at an inner-city comprehensive; impressive, although not streetwise and tough enough - not for the school she was headteaching at; and surprisingly good in the sack tbf.

But were the 60p hotdogs available? But seriously a lot of those people may have been caught up in riots and had all their furniture stolen, hence the emergency.

You could buy the Rollmop Herring, Hot dogs (in a can), and Frozen Meatballs in the food shop beyond the main tills. I haven't got a clue if that was opened.
 
Worldometers have adjusted the deaths total for the UK down to +111 with a note for pillar 2 testing in care homes.
