Even the single parents I know have the latest iPhones. And some of them tattoos too. Are you for real, there’s really bad poverty on the Iom & lots of it falls on the kids with some parents spending the benefits on drugs & drink 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You must also wear a face covering, and avoid crowded areas Not that big a deal, but police were complaining on Twitter last time that people were phoning and reporting things which weren’t illegal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slinkydevil Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 Do kids have to wear facemasks? My 4 year old won't even keep her bobble hat on at the best of times! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It reinforces the 'stay at home as much as possible'. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banker Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 Looks like the government website has been updated saying face masks strongly recommended so not mandatory except on public transport Face coverings are strongly advised in all public settings, and are mandatory on public transport.
