I do know this about masks. I don’t wear one when out walking, or in house or garden, but do when in the market as it is unofficially ‘the law’ hereabouts at the moment.

I prefer bandanas but back when I had four-legged companions they nicked them all. ;)

Had no idea about the crystal or the Gregg Braden thing. The crystal interests me. Perhaps whenever I am in that area. I’m a bit surprised that he’d be allowed an in-person, given that things are sort of officially unofficially closed hereabouts…unless that’s another notification I did not get. You have to love those! I’ll take that as an encouraging sign, though! And thanks for letting me know about alleged humongous crystals, always!

Friends in New Zealand report that while social distancing is definitely the thing, masks are neither encouraged/discouraged nor enforced because a) the CO2 thing, and b) most masks are not sealed and so a cough or sneeze escapes anyway. They prefer common courtesy, a thing desperately lacking in this country.
