Good morning Richard, I admire your creativity
Another different approach is seen here in central Kenya with male and female residents using thongs/knickers as masks. https://youtu.be/CoSSnH7E5FI Part of the battle against the virus is having to deal with ignorance and the ....“it won’t happen to me mentality”..... On Monday the President of Kenya announced another 30 days of night curfew. In his speech, he said because the police can’t be everywhere, if members of the public can report on each other if they see anyone who is not wearing a mask or refusing to wear one. |

I find if you move your glasses down your nose a bit this stops them fogging up.

Misting glasses with mask
After 3 or 4-months of wearing a mask and not being able to see much because my glasses mist, I've discovered an improvement. Pull the mask up so that the bridge of the glasses bears down on the mask. It's a big improvement. My mask has a valve.

If they have an exit valve, will that not mean that your expelled breath goes out unfiltered, defeating the whole reason for wearing a mask.

Cut a slot in the mask seam near the nose, then feed in a straightened paper clip so its central over the nose. It can then be bent to make a tighter fit around the nose. Fold over the clips ends first, to stop it digging in.

Ordered some once-only use masks from China on Amazon and they arrived yesterday. A bit more comfortable than a full-face rubber gas mask while wearing a charcoal suit and they meet the requirement. Three layers and 100 of them for ~ six quid.

Valved masks should have a filter supplied with them. I have purchased some and they have three layers of material plus a replaceable heppa filter, so the exhausted air is filtered.

Went to Tesco’s in Callington this morning and all the customers, and the staff on the tills, had masks on. Social distancing is the norm.
