Saw an article about flying SK domestic recently - the author was really upset about the mask policy and she tossed her mask off as soon as she got off the aircraft. She said it was a full flight so no distancing of any kind.

There was no mask policies in Scandinavia so people are not used to them. Coming from the south, I will have no problem putting a mask on. It is super annoying, but I have got a few months now to get used to they annoyance.

Actually, I find it neither annoying nor a problem. It has literally become a habit by now. I don a mask whenever I leave my home (or hotel room). Sure under the subtropical sun it is rather warm (uniqlo airism masks help a lot), but I still put it on. I don't recall ever really seeing masks for sale in Denmark, whereas here in Japan any supermarket and convenience store stocked masks even before the pandemic.
Can one now get masks in Netto, or the equivalent?

Masks are available, but not plentiful and (relatively) very expensive in Sweden. In Germany disposable masks cost about 1€/pc in retail stores and cloth masks around 5€. I buy a pack of 50 disposables for 20€ from chinese vendors on amazon.de and have them shipped to my inlaws in Sweden. They usualy arrive after 2-3 weeks. Sadly Uniqlo only sells masks in Japan

By the way, a black reusable mask and a pair of dark sunglasses does quite give the vibe of being a B movie villain.

You try wearing a mask under the Okinawa sun.

Maybe the few old Swedish people using them on buses can share their sources from a distance.

I haven'r seen masks in Netto/Fotex etc. I know CPH is selling them. In Sweden people order it from stores that import them from China (KN95), and honestly I don't trust them because there are so many fakes (found out by the authorities they sold to) and I know a lot of them are ready to be sold to people who don't notice.
In DK I don't need any sanitizing gel because they are available in malls and shops. It's a different story in Sweden, my local Jem & Fix has sanitizing gel which is impressive (they refill them too).

Denmark is opening up now to tourists from Skane and Blekinge in Sweden. Not that this will make any material difference for SAS.

1) The police at the border will say they knew nothing about the reopening and this must be a mistake
2) A few days after reopening, they will close us out again.

It’s like the rain in Copenhagen today, where it’s not all that easy to know when the next break from the day’s rain will come. Maybe this is why Danish homes for Copenhagen commuters are less likely to have a pool than is the case with comparable Swedish homes for Copenhagen commuters?

Denmark can rain on plans.

So now we have the chance to borrow your cars, splash into a pool fit for more than a Svalbard polar bear, go poaching, and all you want in return is to tap into the pile of crappy toilet paper and directions to the Malmo area vineyard within biking distance?
Of the Danish house owners whom I know in Skane, many seem to have pools. Makes me think that there is something else going on in Denmark that makes pools less common in Denmark. Danes in Sweden don’t seem to be any less smart than Danes in Denmark, but they often do speak an interesting version of what they must think is Swedish.

What do you expect? That Scandinavians will read and memorize all the rules implemented from above?

Sounds like an ice cover at 28. Or did you toss Fahrenheit under the bus before or after you had a potential chance to see American cars and “cars” go under a yellow Skanetrafiken bus?
