I know it is not the law in the uk to wear masks outside, not like us in Spain that have to wear them outside, but my opinion it's safer to wear them outside as well, try to gett most people to wear them outside and there would probably be a rebellion that's why there as been so many deaths in th...

...e uk because people don't like to be told what to do !

Nope your wrong it’s nothing to do, with not being told what to do , I have said before we’re all individuals, and some people do wear there masks outside some chose not to and when I go to Spain ( like many others ) I do what the law requires ...you are wrong in judging people. Who you do not know .. which is what you are doing . I will be the first to admit boris got it wrong at first , but imo the uk is now far ahead of Europe in its vaccination program,  if you have.  Problem with brits comming to Spain  that’s your choice. But to not tarnish us with all the same brush as I do not you ...

Ho I'm sorry I wasn't aware that you are always right, it looks as if you are the sort of person that is never wrong, what I said was if borris had made it law for every one to wear masks outside it may have saved lives and the only thing he as got right is on the vaccinations that does not make up for all the mistakes of the past, the virus that is most prevelant in Spain at the moment is the one which was brought over from Kent  in the uk I remember in November there was some visitors from the uk over not wearing masks somebody said to them you should be wearing a mask and there reply was we don't wear one in the uk outside why should we wear one here 

That's the attitude they have Johnson is too soft and wants every body to like him he his such a Moran

I never said I was allways right you did , plus you say someone from Kent brought it over ? Do you have proof ? Your the one with opinions yours mostly again let me repeat myself so Maybey you will understand a second time .. lots of people do wear masks outside .. and if you keep your distance , ( like you should ) a mask is not needed outside. You sound like a bitter ex pat  and why ? You no longer live in uk so why the hate ? Is it because you have a boring life ? With nothing else to do ? I suggest you worry about yourself in Spain and not what others are doing you might find that your stress levels go down .. and as for Boris. What does he have to do with you ? You now live in Spain so you have nothing to worry about ...

We feel unsafe now shopping in Garrucha Mercadona since there are many tourists who are refusing to comply with the staff's requests to wear masks and gloves. They need security officers to strictly enforce the rules. Is there any way this message can get to the senior management before the numbe...

...r of viral infections rocket?

My wife and I arrived home in the Uk on Sunday night after almost 4 months in Spain. During that time we used Mercadona many times always being careful and vigilant and following guidelines laid down by the store. We thought the management and staff did a good. The many tourist's mentioned obviously arrived after we left. However, as we are now self isolating at home we arranged a delivery of food from Morrisons. 

It duly arrived delivered by a young guy not wearing a mask. Young people seem to have their own selfish agenda but responsibility lies with Morrisons who have the final say.

I was in mojacar in July and august and most if not all of my friends adhered to the rules that where in place . Wearing masks when walking along the playa , onto the beach and into bars until seated . The bulk of people who where not adhering to the rules where young Spanish people . Ok if they where in small groups but pier pressure seemed to take over when larger groups exited the beach blocking the playa and not wearing masks . It’s no different to football fans it only needs a few hooligans to turn a game into free for all . Our local area , Rother , in East Sussex had zero in 100,000 on Thursday with Eastbourne at 9.6 in 100,000 we must be doing something right . And I had my second Pfizer jab on Friday . Onwards and upwards

It was not a very small amount of people in Bournemouth and in North Yorkshire last week, it's nice to ear from one of the sensible ones hope you enjoy it when you get here

It was a small amount considering these idiots were coming up to a hundred miles to spend the day on a crowded beach......Youngest daughter lives in Bournemouth and will not go near the beach with the children when crowded..... and the eldest is in Weymouth and will only visit her beach hut (which is in gardens away from the sea front) when it is overcast and people stay away...... Most people are sensible....but it is not 'news' to show them!!!!!

Unfortunately as the driver was out of doors when delivering it is not the law in UK to wear a mask..... but it is a shame that common sense did not prevail! My daughter works in Weymouth Morrisons and she has to wear a mask inside the store at all times....
