Half the customers in Tesco wearing masks! Not round here they don’t.
Even in Waitrose it is only around 1/3rd do - and virtually none of the staff in any of the stores, including Waitrose and M&S.
Lol, where's that then? (In the broadest of terms?)
I'm in a posh(ish) bit of Wiltshire but even so, I'm constantly surprised by how many people around here still mask up to go in shops. And this was before Omicron pitched up on the scene.
Bedfordshire/ Cambridgeshire/ Hertfordshire - all around is similar, with the the only noticeable exceptions if you venture into major towns, where depending on the demographic it is significantly higher or lower.
