    My glasses don't fog up on mine. It's all to do with the fit so you've probably got a gap somewhere. Don't make the mistake I made of wearing upside down.

    It’s really not that difficult for a 5-10 minute period of time.

    Arsed being a key worker wearing it for 10-12 hours but as a casual wearer it’s annoying but tolerable.

    If my work said I had to wear one in the office upon return I’d be pissed though. No thanks.

    Our teachers aren’t allowed as it’s “better for the wellbeing of the children” to be able to read their facial expressions

    Definitely not enough slaps handed out in schools these days.

    They are worse than I imagined they would be to wear, but given shopping is such a horrid experience anyway they probably barely detract from the experience.

    Why aren't you people getting Tesco (or insert other name) delivery? It takes the aggro out of the process.

    I do, but sometimes you just need to pop to the shop for one thing. Friday was milk and yesterday was for some booze for a bbq.

    They’re like gold dust with about a 2 week wait last time I checked here. They also ask that if you’re not old, etc that you don’t get one.

    I normally just go to the local Super Valu for opening at 8am on a Saturday or Sunday morning and I’m out and gone before half past with the fortnight bought.

    Fair point.

    The deliveries seem to be getting slightly easier to book compared to a month or so ago. We did stop booking them during peak lockdown as my wife's moral compass kicked in... and available slots were as rare as rocking horse shit.

    It's a change. I haven't been on lockdown at all during this, and I've barely experienced any restrictions on my daily life (save for clubs closing) so flying into a place where you can't sit inside at a restaurant and where there are literally painted circles on the grass telling you where to sit was a bit of a culture shock. Not a huge deal tho and i'm only here for a month so if it gets real bad in SF i can just use my dual citizenship to gtfo back to Europe

    We already can't fly to America. They can fly to us though which sounds like a complete arse.

    It's a face covering and if they can't afford some extra fabric I'd presume they have no business in a shop.

    I had two morons behind me in the post office today not wearing masks. And I do mean morons, something not quite right with them. I gave them the British disapproving look, but they seemed too preoccupied on whether to choose recorded delivery or not.

    I don't know what deprived low socio-economic areas you people reside in, I've been gagging to come across some rebel cunts so I can point and laugh at them but even Lidl in these ends has full compliance.

    These 2 will be going to prison hopefully.

    Or lynched in Logans Town Square whatever is easier. Their lives in Logan are over anyway if their is an outbreak.

    19-year-old women are under criminal investigation after returning to Brisbane from Melbourne and allegedly failing to self-isolate before testing positive to COVID-19.

    New cases detected in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. Danang already in full lockdown. Government warns that it will be taking "swift action".
    Apparently it's a different strain to before, this time similar to the strain the UK and Europe (this one being more contagious).

    Apparently we've been in the news over there for sending quarantine breachers to prison (150 days per admitted breach or £3000 fine).

    This was from my Sydney dwelling friend who is planning a trip to Port Douglas in a few weeks if the borders are open . . .

    That's the story off our bbc local news but I doubt he'd have seen it on there, although it's possible.

    Doesn't sound like his plan to travel is likely to succeed.

    Thank you.

    The door will be shut for Sydney untill their numbers are under control unfortunetly. I have a bad feeling this 2nd wave of ours is going to be big.

    How many people do you know with a fondness to Port Douglas?

    In state of origin terms they are New South Wales as they lived there first, but yeah, I guess they technically could be (they aren't actually Aussie citizens).

    They're adopted FNQers.

    Speaking with a planning officer in the South East of England yesterday. Both he and his wife tested positive for CV-19 a month or so ago. Both had mild symptoms and were not bed bound. He has diabetes and said it was marginally worse for him.

    He said the worse thing was the fatigue and for a month afterwards he'd get tired just walking up the stairs. But he's now back to full fitness in case any of you were worrying about him.

    You okay?

    It's likely to be the worst now at the start of getting to grips with it. But this is the start of the unravelling of the global world due to rising temperatures so there is that.
