    <10% may have perfectly legitimate reasons. I think the intent was to acknowledge the vast majority, not speculate on the minority

    I would think 100% of the idiots aren’t.

    Considering 12% of the population are asthmatic I'd say that's not bad at all

    Footfall massively down on normal. We've been twice recently, primarily for the cinema. Parked virtually next to the door.

    Think I'm the idiot for coming! Busy today but I suppose that's to be expected. Feeling very hot and claustrophobic but needs must.

    I remember once being on the train when it pulled into Meadowhall and the announcer had said "we are now pulling into Meadow Hell"... certainly gave me a chuckle did that :)

    The only time I enjoy going to Meadowhall is when it's shut.

    Suppose Saturday and Sunday before Christmas were always going to be busy even if the rest of the time isn't. The prospect of wearing a mask for that long would totally put me off.

    The tax-dodging Jeff Bezos delivers all my shopping - I need never set foot in Meadowhell again.

    I used to enjoy Meadow Hell when the train stopped there coming back from games against the Blunts to a chorus of "You're not getting on". Cue open mouthed shoppers who indeed had no chance of getting on as the train was so rammed.

    Why do you do that? Is it to make notes on the architectural features while in a tranquil setting?

    Cinema for a fiver and then a nice Thai buffet afterwards at ChaoBaby - what's not to like? :)
