If only we could make PPE out of plastic bags!

Lots of extra things. Double bagging stuff. Containing waste that might be infectious

Our shopping has come in the strong ones which will be filled with stuff for the charity shop or recycled at the shop later.

EllanVannin that cheered me up no end!

Well, not.
DD just said they are coming out of lockdown slowly. However, it is very chilly and apparently there was snow in the south.

What are you using them for notanan.

Im running out since lockdown!

Try Googling knitting crocheting things from plastic bags . There are lots of patterns and instruction videos online, from nifty tote bags to shower/beach slippers and sleeping mats for the homeless.

Just read that Australia have got a $billion Aus dollars worth stored in a warehouse in case of a second wave which would be deadly as it's coming up to their winter.

I know !And if course its essential but the thought of all the PPE used worldwide just as we were starting to tackle plastic pollution is depressing.I'm sure it's incinerated as clinical waste but I hate the thought of the millions of discarded gloves and masks there will be .

My spare room is full of them. Glad I can get online shopping but having used 'bags for life' for years I feel as though I have gone back in time.
I only had one or two plastic bags in the house before lockdown.
