Well, no more shopping for me. Not sure what I'll do about food.
I've only been leaving the house for the past month to go food shopping anyway. Now I get to lose that. Or add £100 to my shopping bill.
I'd understand if I felt it would make any difference but most of the people wearing masks are doing so in a way that increases their infection risk, not reduces it. Meanwhile you don't have to wear a mask to go to work, or to go to the pub, or to go to the barbers.
So it all feels very pointless, which adds to the stress of not wanting my face covered, not wanting my glasses to steam up, not wanting the skin damage behind my ears that a mask will cause. So no more shopping. No more food. I guess I need to lose some weight..
get it delivered to your door! sign up for online shopping, just add what you need to your basket and on checkout there's usually a box to type in for delivery instructions.. type in that you are shielding (or self isolating) and they should leave the shopping at the door and step back so you can open the door and take in your shopping.
