'Face fashion?' Maybe they are just socially responsible citizens, unlike the majority on your commute, including, presumably, you.
Coronavirus - how is it/has it affected you?

About 75% on my commute in London, none of us looking particularly fashionable.

The end of the line for testing. We're closing down on 31Mar, which has come of a bit of a surprise - we all thought that there would be a bit more of a winding down period.
Oh well, I'll have to go back into the real world now and find myself a new job

About 10% on my commute home still had a mask on. I was in that minority. Forgot to take it off coming out of the station and walked into the town centre where I was a rarity and hardly anyone masked which did surprise me. Thought some of the more senior folk (my age and above) would have been a bit more vigilant at least for a few days/or week or so
Didn't Richard Harris sing a song about that?? Something about leaving his cake out in the rain.

Nope - as of today you are no longer required to isolate if you have covid. Thats for everyone. There "guidance" to stay at home but it's entirely up to you.
As many will know most kids are only ill for a day or two. Then feel fine despite still testing positive for days. So rest assured those infectious kids will be at school. So yes - from today in your kids school and on the train or bus you use - you will be sitting beside people that 100% have covid - per one of the other post 80% of people that shop at Sainsburys have figured this out.

Wrong. The guidance is for adults however for the DofE the guidance for schools is still as is until April 1st. Any child with symptoms (or has a positive test result) is not to attend school until they have isolated for 5 days and have 2 negative tests.

As the link says - not after 24th Feb. There are free test available until 1 April then after that you can buy them from Boots for £5 - unless you are in Ireland then you can also buy them from Boots for 70 cents
There may be guidance from the DofE. But I think they also have guidance that you should get your 5-a-day. So you know, their covid guidance has about the same weight as that.

Well the schools in our area are all following the DofE guidance until April 1st.
Anyway, doesn’t really matter, most kids have had it, all grandparents etc should be up to date with jabs so crack on.

Saw something today that I really struggled to get my head around....
A queue of people at Tesco, waiting to get to the hand and trolley sanitiser station......and none of them were wearing masks....
They al, wiped down their trolleys, sanitised their hands and walked in....without masks...
Am I missing something..?

They see masks as protecting others but sanitising protects them? AKA selfish...
Waits for comments about mask police etc etc!!

No, they are; grey matter between their ears.
Wasn't covid on surfaces discredited a while back? A test on London Underground or London rail services from memory.
