I’d be interested to hear other UK ferners views on freedom day. Locally to us, it seems not much of a change in attitudes and application. A bit less mask wearing, but similar social distancing, a little more flexibility about which doors we go in and out in public places (Ok I mean the pub), by otherwise fairly much as you were.
-
@catogrande Only difference to my life is not wearing a mask in the pub or a cafe.
Most people seem sensible, some reports of people on the Tube not wearing masks.
-
@catogrande No change around here much at all.
I help out in the local community shop and everyone still wears masks and social distances. I've heard pubs are bit more relaxed but people still don a mask when ordering from the bar or going to the loo.

Update: Was in ASDA this morning and plenty of people weren't wearing masks nor social distancing. Seemed to be a mix of locals and holiday-makers. Unsure if the likes of Waitrose or Tesco are the same.
Also my dentist has relaxed procedures a bit in their reception area. Pretty much the same PPE for the dentist himself though.

You do realise that this is a public forum don't you?

They do great pizza flavours like "Cheeseburger and BBQ Sauce" and a wide selection of cheap whiskies - as well you know.

Now I'm conflicted. I'm sitting somewhere between <shudder> and <ooh, cheap whiskies>

I just had a flashback to riding halfway across Georgia, the day after discovering the delightfully named "Hankey Bannister" at the Turkey/Georgia border duty-free - stocking up on it, and then consuming it that night to free up luggage space.
