I do enjoy your posts, Alter. Always so honest, & the 'number 2' made me laugh. I wonder if she dashed out of the entire lavatory area because she'd done a smelly one & was embarrassed that you were there to smell it?
Why, thank you, SB. I do try to put a bit of a smile on things. I'm extra polite this week as I'm not in the throes of PMT. I apologise to anyone I insult sometimes. It's not me, it's my evil PMT twin!
She meandered out. Stopped to check herself briefly in mirror by sounds of it. Ugh!
I can't do links! It's techy and beyond me but I found it in a San Fransisco online article, Baynews9.com.
There`s a 5 litre container of hand sanitiser on Ebay for £999, yep £999 and there are some stupid silly prices for tiny little 30ml bottles too. Rip off Britain strikes again.
My husband works part time as a taxi driver so he`s at high risk from coronavirus with people in and out of his cab, coughing , sneezing etc, handing him money and so on and as much as I love him there`s no damned way I`d pay £999 for hand sanitiser. He has wet wipes and a bottle of Anti Bac household cleaning liquid and every so often he squirts some into his palms, rubs his hands with it and then wipes over them with a wet wipe. He washes his hands when he can do but that tends to be inbetween fares when he`s buying fuel , or getting his lunch or visiting the loo.
Can you give him an e-cloth wrung out in a plastic bag? I'm not 100% sure about viruses but it gets rid of 99% bacteria off surfaces and the act of scrubbing with a microfibre cloth will, at the very least, help.
He's probably more at risk from the virus in an airbourne state, though. Does he have a screen between him and the passengers? Some Dettol air freshener could help. It advertises that it kills bacteria but the force from the spray may blow particles away from him.
If I've been out then I wash my hands thoroughly as soon as I get home.
But if I am in all day on my own, apart from normal hand washing after the loo or before preparing food, why is there any need to wash more often than this? Presumably I can't infect myself.
Technically, no. But it's shocking how many surfaces at home we touch without realising when we get in. I did a walk around after my partner came in earlier this week. There's the door handles, keys, light switches work surfaces, the clothes we take off and the tap handle after we've washed our hands.
I watched my partner walk in, put the keys down after locking the door then wash his hands. He could have re-infected himself with the tap, the items he took out of his shopping bag and the handles of the Bag for Life just at a glance.
