Freedom Day?

I celebrated Freedom Day by having a much needed haircut, and I went into a couple of shops barefaced, as it were. I was the only customer in the newsagent's, and the man himself was not wearing a mask. At the pharmacy, the staff were masked, and the five customers split 3-2 in the Lone Ranger's favour.

I can see it leading to friction in some circumstances, and I understand that some people are nervous. For me, the wearing of the mask has been the worst aspect of the whole Covid experience, and I really needed to exercise my new rights. I will continue to play it by ear, and try to do what's right and appropriate in each situation.

I finished at 'You and Me', a café in the middle of Prestwich Village. There was room for about forty, but only two tables occupied. First time there, for me, and quite a good experience.  Proper coffee, for one thing, but the tables were too high for the chairs.

Will certainly try it again. Nice people.
