The daftest thing I've done whilst wearing a mask in a shop-buy a gooey cake,get cream off bag onto finger,attempt to lick finger... Exit shop with a big blobby mess in the middle of the mask. I love book shops ... charity or new. I find it infuriating trying to read wearing a mask, but it's a minor annoyance Rog

I've tried everything. You'll not be surprised to hear I have a huge nose which has been broken many times ... perhaps such an icebergish style nose will ALWAYS create problems . Being someone with a MASSIVE head, you'll no doubt sympathise Rog

A woman once asked me to put a black mask/ headcover on. Did she beat you to it?

Uncomfortable with wearing noddy face masks in a shop or pub?
You should try one of these bad boys.
My head gear at home - currently preparing the ceilings for the plasterer to skim over the naff artex, got to be very careful in case they contain the same nasty shit as Johnson and Johnson talcum powder......
Each room is bagged up with tape and drape and the girls exiled whilst I do my thing, it’s hot, sweaty, horrible hard work and I’ll be glad to see the back of it. Poor old Henry is getting an arse kicking at clean up time, need a new bag every room, so that’s 5 hepa vacuum bags, 5 9030 moldex filters, untold plastic waste along with a service wash of my work clothes after every room.
Replacement filters are £12 a pair distress purchase from Amazon, I need a pair per room and will run out by Saturday so am down £36 to complete the house.
What price your health eh?......

Thanks @gazza ... could get my nose in there but I'd look rather silly in Waterstones.
Sounds like a twat of a job you're on ... hope it's over soon.

I was lucky not to have to pay for the damn thing, my personal left over PPE from a now redundant production process at work, we sold the facility to one of our licensees in Spain, the poxy thing had been hanging on a hook for two years waiting for a chance to be used in anger once again.

Did you have the Artex tested? When we did ours 2 years ago got a chap to come out take samples and get it analysed, it was benign. Our plasterer did all the prep as well

Just to lighten things a little more, I'll share a gingerism with you that happened last week in the Bleeding Wolf Pub.
We were sitting outside having some drinks but bladder alert was amber so I decided to go inside for a wee. I put my mask on like a good citizen - so as to protect any vulnerable person who might have been in the pub...(no one in sight however anyway)... no matter. ONCE in the loo, I saw a bloke at the stand ups so - like a good boy rather than stand anywhere near him I went into a cubical for my wee. Inside there I took off my mask and began said task.
On auto-pilot, when I'd 'finished' (it's not always a guarantee at my age) I instinctively went to dab the end of my todger with what would USUALLUY in this position have been loo roll - to minimize the risk of leakage when returned to it's holding carriage... ONLY to realize Id just dried my knob with my mask!
Suffice to say, on exit I did NOT put my mask on as sniffing my own urine is not something I really want to do for the sake of hysteria compliance.

If you sit down, you dont need to dab at the end, let gravity take care of things.
Although pub loos are not really the kind of place you want to sit down.

There is a cure for the last drip, nasal hair follicle grafted onto the end. Sniff. Job sorted. Mind you, as you get older it's the first drip that gets you.

Our plasterer did all the prep as well I've treated it as though it isn't benign, seemed the safest bet! Besides that, i'd want the level of protection i'm using anyway. Only way we could get the spread in was to do the prep, he hadn't time enough in the diary to do the lot. if we ever move again and need plasterwork doing i'll be damned if I'm doing any prep a second time around!

I didn't know about the dangers in Artex when I removed it from every wall in Horror House... Once I found out...I tried not to think about the what if. Also one day I sat in clouds of choking dust as a plaster wall collapsed behind me
