In My Defence I was left Unsupervised
Around here mask wearing was still at 90% plus 2 weeks ago when it ceased to be mandatory. There have always been the odd self-centred cunt that reckons the rules don't apply to them but there was also a lot of people who didn't like them but did so because it was the done thing. On our way home from my parents on Sunday, we called at the KFC on the services and rather than go through the drive through as we have been doing these past 18 months, Youngest Q and I went in.
Certainly mask wearing is down to no more than 50% tops now. None of the staff were wearing them (though the screens are still up) and only about half the not inconsiderable number of people going through the services were.
Very varied selection though as many young as old were wearing or not wearing. I don't see anyone wearing them improperly now, I think anyone who did that would have just stopped wearing one now.
It's pretty inevitable the further we get from 'Freedom Day' that mask wearing will drop off, as more and more people stop wearing them, then more people will see others not wearing them and stop themselves.
The things is the vaccines do seem to be working and any upswing in cases isn't being matched by any sudden surges in hospitalisations/deaths and there seems to be an ever growing feeling that it's over (whether or not it actually is)
BoZo's mad gamble seems to have paid off more through sheer chance rather than any action on his part but there you go.
No-one has challenged me about wearing a mask, there must be something about me that deters the loons, I've never encountered a single anti-vaxxer in the flesh either. Every single person I've spoken to about vaccinations as either had it or been in the process of getting it.
