I visited a shop for the first time yesterday, small local village shop in Manchester, relatively quiet but impossible to be 2m apart from the 2 other people in their at all times, still probably better than being close to a lot more people at a supermarket I think. Weird going out into the real world again after 2.5 weeks.
first time out at a big supermarket for a couple of weeks... generally quiet, lines drawn on floor for queues, but no screens or PPE for staff which seems fucking unfair, and just about everything back on the shelves...
despite a couple of mask wearers (I had a cycling buff over my face, fnarr) customers just as fucking ignorant of 2m rule as ever, including old folk who should be trying hardest to protect themselves. Really seems like the majority just don't seem to think any kind of concessions are needed at all, or somehow believe that they're immune.
Really have no inclination to be going back out out for supplies for as long as possible, but then my bastard neighbour seems to have been completely furloughed this week and has transformed relative peace of garden into pounding beers (I say beers, he drinks Budweiser exclusively which I find pretty representative...) from early afternoon, now that he's finally finished finessing the decking, cranking up the BBQ radio pumping out 'Living Next Door to Alice' and the like so it's like being in what I imagine a fucking Butlin's lodge to be like or something.
Christ this is going to be punishing.
