Husband was in dire need of some new shorts to replace his fraying holey old ones so we took a trip into town this morning to go to M&S - sensible clothes for older people - and find him some.
We arrived in the car park and discovered Husband had forgotten his mask so first stop was Boots to buy one. There were in and out doors and some arrows on the floor to direct traffic but fortunately it wasn't too crowded. I say 'fortunately' because very few people - even among the staff - were wearing masks.
From there, now suitably masked up, it was off to M&S. For goodness sake! No entrance/exit doors, no arrows, and bare-faced people everywhere. I was getting so annoyed I was tempted to 'shoot' - in true Masked Man outlaw style - the offenders. But I would soon have run out of bullets: I would say there were fewer than one in thirty people masked.
I won't be going there again if I can possibly help it.
The Welsh government hasn't yet made mask-wearing in shops compulsory. I know there are concerns about the efficacy of them but, along with keeping your distance, they do help provide a level of reassurance at least.
I certainly didn't see anyone using the hand sanitisers - except me. And Husband when I reminded him.

People are being very cavalier about the few protective steps they can take, both for themselves and others. Like lemmings off a cliff.
Masks are not common here yet. Then again, we haven’t had any hospitalizations or deaths and few cases, all travel related.
Our local hospital has sanitiser outside the main door and inside the door. You then walk three steps to a young woman who checks that you have an appointment... after you've sanitised your hands. She directs you to another member of staff who explains where you've got to go, where you'll be greeted by someone else who'll will check your appointment before allowing you into the waiting room, after you've sanitised your hands. Next to this sanitiser there's a notice apologising for the lack of coffee due to the exceptional circumstances.On the way out, you're prompted to wash your hands before leaving and , once through, there's a final sanitiser by the parkingticket machine... oh, and there's two in the bike sheds and one by the bus stop.
No one , at any stage, is wearing a mask.
Nice blog, I will keep visiting this blog very often.
