Today we are going outside...driving a few suburbs away...to a nail salon.
Nail salons have only recently been allowed to reopen.
The lone lady has a Covid-safe system for her clients.
She wears a mask, mrs bambu wears a mask, and between the two is a specially designed screen ...with a slot at the bottom for the customer to put their hands thru.
We agreed it was safe to do.
Then mrs bambu has to go to the doctor's medical centre...germs!... to have her eyes tested for a special reason.
She'll be wearing a mask. They are supposedly practising social distancing.
She's only taking the risk because she has to.
I am driving her.
I'll be dropping her off then driving away to a car park, staying in the sealed car, then when she phones I'll drive and collect her.
Only problem, I might need to visit the bathroom (toilet, there's no bath) in the 2.5 hours it will all take.
I joined a nearby club for this specific purpose.
I might have to leave the protection of the sealed car and enter the big bad virus world...wearing a mask and glasses.
With NSW having 14 new cases of Covid-19 yesterday (all citizens returning from overseas and currently in quarantine in hotels)...and 'no community transmissions', there's some chance I''ll /we'll survive.
