Another vote for face masks from Really Maria on Lordship Lane

1. Local - you can buy in the shop or click and collect - no delivery delays

2. Good for large masks - my husband always has trouble buying hats and spectacles as his head is larger than average. Really Maria?s large was a better fit than the extra large he ordered online. The elastic can be adjusted to give the fit you want - masks with straps round the head not ears are better for spectacle users

3. Only washed once but no issues

Also happy with mine (?10) from Really Maria.


If you're like me and prefer the straps around the ears, she'll happily do them that way.

> Karavan Eco are selling cotton face masks for ?3.00


Were they possibly these, the only one I could find on their website, but marked as ?3.99, and only Large left? https://karavaneco.co.uk/products/facemask?variant=34753450836134


If not, any idea how they compare, on grade/thickness of cotton, and number and type of layers

Thoroughly recommend Vanessa and her sister?s masks from SE22Breathe

She delivers locally, very reasonably priced. Friendly and responsive, you can drop an email or an instagram message to place the order, and payment can be via PayPal.

Thank you Esme, glad you liked your masks.

Jen works Monday to Thursday and was making these masks in her spare time for friends and family, but some neighbours started asking for masks on our road's Whatsapp Group, so she began making additional masks. She buys the material locally, and makes reversible, washable face masks. I have attached photos of the material she currently has, if anyone is interested.

They really are lovely, well made and look nice (unlike most other masks I've seen) and tho I know it's about health and safety from the virus, I also think it's nice to look bright and summery in these times!

    • Sadly, but not unreasonably, councils find it difficult to justify such expenditure on their current budgets. My family, which does like fireworks have been enjoying the displays by those still with disposable wealth by viewing them from Hilly Fields. Other hills (Dawson Heights) are available. For children who have autumn and winter birthdays, a firework display is some consolation for their birthday climate. My grandchildren, being summer babies, can enjoy garden parties and picnics. Without the need for explosions and dazzling display. 
    • Hey - I’ve got a spare adult ticket if you want it?
    • Not sure what you mean by "involved with firework enjoyment"? I'm all for others enjoying themselves, and I like fireworks, but if they were limited to public displays then people could still enjoy them? Having said that, I see that tickets for the London New Year fireworks start at £20 (Dawson's Heights it is,  then!) The fireworks in Brockwell Park used to be free. I don't know why those don't happen any more?
    • Really interesting discussion here. It's difficult to respect the views of people who support Farage, Trump, Musk etc. Why should we, when their views are deplorable. But then that exact 'deplorable' label, as we know, is counterproductive and drives people to double down / switch off to more progressive views. How do you actually help change minds? We're currently spiralling into dark places culturally and politically imo. The amount of open racism, even amongst front line politicians here and in the US is astounding to me. Feels like we're going backwards. The influence of social media and the tech billionaires / bros, is a powerful and largely malignant one. There was an enlightening (and frightening) bit of journalism by Sky this week about Musk's influence on British politics. He has a strange obsession with the UK and London in particular (as do many on the US right wing): https://news.sky.com/story/the-x-effect-how-elon-musk-is-boosting-the-british-right-13464487
