Unfortunately, many of these smaller business will no longer exist soon. Big online sites will rule the world. Sad.

Very interesting to see this one! I didn’t know the stores we’re having teen mannequins. Last store I was in never had them by my house. πŸ˜€πŸ‘πŸŒˆ

Yes and add that same hissing sound, and the phrases "What ever", "What's the point", and "Why not". LOL

Oh, that is so true! The exhausted, worldweary look, and the slumping posture! My son (even at 30), looks like that if I catch him at the wrong minute!

Cheers, Midori

Imagine a bearded six footer, built like a bear, and add that to the petulant teen look!

Ok, I'm exaggerating a bit, but he is big, beardy and six foot!And he definitely has his moments!

πŸ˜…πŸ˜…πŸ˜….Captures the attitude superbly!Ive been in to shops a couple of times but I will only go in if its very quiet or empty.The first one I went into was a small mens clothes shop (the shop not the men lol) to treat my husband to a tshirt I'd seen in the window.I was very nervous but there were no other customers and I felt so pleased with myself that Id finally been in a shop after 3 months! Little things mean so much and it reminded me of how much I took things for granted before lockdown.

Yes !!!😁

I haven't been yet and need to go. I miss shopping and am tired of doing it online Definitely the teenage look. That's one depressed looking mannequin and really someone should put a mask on him lol. Not that this whole Covid-19 has been thrilling but just in keeping up with our wardrobe needs lately.

Oh you did make my chuckle!

Well done for venturing out -I haven't yet-every time I get cabin fever and an urge to go to a shop my hubby mutters darkly 'too soon ,I want you here for many years is your life really worth a tin of beans?'!

You are very brave or am I a scaredy cat. Just seeing the title of this post made me shudder. I can't imagine ever going in a supermarket or big store again. We're you nervous and how did people behave? I bet you were glad to get out. x

BazzakReading Rabbitsβ€’ in reply toSheila_G

If I'm honest, where I live, Victoria in Westminster, its mostly office and Goverment workers, the majority of which are working from home. I went for a walk on Friday and past a large Sainsburys with no queue, thought it strange so had a look inside and hardly anybody there, no queue at checkout, I couldn't believe it. Also any local residents doing serious retail shopping can walk to Oxford Street or Kings Road in twenty minutes so I must say it's pretty quite here apart from the helecopters all day every weekend with protests !😫 x

Hello Bazzak

I guess they had to make the teenage mannequins so the clothing would hang correctly. :)

Now that could really tip me over the edge Bazzak. It's bad enough seeing them walking around like 'Kevin' as it is! 🀣
