Some people were wearing masks on the streets, others were not. Everyone who went into a shop was wearing a mask. The rules were not being broken at all but I do fear that the government will have to introduce some restrictions again, such as masks in the streets as well as in shops and other businesses. It is quite understandable if you think about it.
Last Christmas was hit by restrictions and this year people are trying to enjoy themselves as much as possible.
Everyone is following the rules but there is a problem, the number of cases are rising.

It is rather a strange atmosphere, it is life as normal but concern over Covid. If the cases continue to rise the government will have little option but to introduce new restrictions.
