I visit a lot of towns and cities during the week and even though there appears more traffic on the roads the shops and the shopping centres themselves still seem far quieter than normal, perhaps due to muzzle wearing or people are simply still too scared and anxious to venture out. I notice there are far fewer people on public transport as well.

I agree with you dubs about this strange feel about the place when out and about. I'm now Seeing almost as many folk wearing bits of cloth on their face when outdoors as in the shops and for me this as heightened that feeling of anxiety and dread. One things for sure though beautiful women should and ought to be exempt from wearing a face mask, at least that would brighten the day.
