If not, dangerously close. I can see why people would decorate them, businesses have their logo. The young 'right on' crowd are embracing them, will they continue even if no need?

Is there a problem with wearing them? Since they are a necessity I see now reason to make them look a bit more interesting!

Quite like this for £7.95 on Ebay, but it's out of stock at the moment. frown

I had some made in various designs for our daughter - unicorns, rainbows, etc... makes for a more desirable use rather than a plain FFP2/3 mask which can look more intimidating to younger children

Aren’t the young helping you old people by wearing them. You should be thanking them.

You're right, I'm forgetting my manners.

Thank you. wink

Can't say ive seen any "young" people wearing them TBH.

Apart from the odd older person in Tesco, or the odd taxi driver, ive not noticed anyone else wearing one.

Mask wearers are certainly in the minority around here, compared to what i see on TV in London...

They've been compulsary on public transport here in London since June 15th.

Had to put one on last Saturday getting on the Central Line, ticket bloke wouldn't allow us through the gates without one.

I've got a couple of biker type ones like this, but plain black. I haven't bothered shaving since March so it covers the face hair. Tried it for the shopping on Saturday morning and it's a bit warm when it's on, but it was pretty hot here on Saturday morning anyway. I am the polar opposite of anything fashionable, so plain black was fine by me.
