| What a strange society we now live in. When you walk down the street, people move to the other side of the pavement to avoid you, but when your in a supermarket, it's a different story. People don't keep 2 metres apart, they basically stop in front of you breathing on you. Now from next week, Boris baboon Johnson is gonna bring in a new law, everyone has to wear facemasks in all shops(4months to late). It will be policed by the "invisible police", who will give out £100 fines if not wearing a mask. I was talking with a worker who works for a well known coffee shop(mentioning no shop name) the other day, she says "she's been told by shop management, if anyone is not wearing a mask, she can't say anything, just keep distance".. I'm off to buy a new hazmat protection suit. |

| I'm amazed there isn't a higher infection rate round Pendleton, very little social distancing in the precinct, with kids running round everywhere, and as for Aldi, people just aren't bothering at all. And why do people think it's acceptable for their kids to climb all over the packing shelf in there? Who knows what they've got on their shoes. |
