Going to be a big increase in cases I reckon.
It's happening in other countries that have opened bars and restaurants.
People really need to stock to the rules but no one's bothering once they've had a few.

Can’t believe I just clicked on a Daily Mail link.

I’m off for a shower.

Alright, for those who went out last night, any reviews more coherent than a Dom one would be?

It was okay - most places weren't open.

Quieter than expected apart from the queue to the oak which I walked passed

Bars in and around Birmingham were quieter, majority of people respectful of distancing/measures, table service in two of the three places we went to. A few younger idiots, one group got asked to leave a bar we were in but if our experience is reflected across country I’d hope there wouldn’t be a huge spike (would expect an uptick still) but who knows I guess.

The main pics being used by the papers are out in the street, Soho being a prime example. It then comes down to whether the virus is easily transmitted outdoors (still being questioned). We had massive street protests 2-3 weeks ago without a spike so hopefully this will be the same.

Because a usual Saturday night doesn't have a lethal airborne pathogen circulating.

Although I agree it's fake shock. How many people genuinely expected people to distance themselves? They wrote the stories ages ago - it was just a matter of finding the places where it happened.

I'm sure most people were reasonably sensible but there was always going to be a few that weren't and others that forgot themselves after a few drinks.

I mean headline news that there's been a fight at a pub or somebody being sick.

There have been gatherings for months.

Not a chance I'm going anywhere near a pub as soon as they open. At the very least will be giving it a few weeks to see if there's a rise in infections.

And when they do reopen zero chance of me going in a Weatherspoon given the way he's treated his staff.

100% agree with this.

union asking not to boycott Whetherspoons.

Fair play for trying to protect their members but I'm with you on this, Martin can get to fuck.

As pubs open, BFAWU says: “Please don’t boycott Wetherspoons”

Had my first pub pint at the oak in baginton. Well ran, good organisation and a cracking pint(s) of Moretti after a long windy ride. That itch has been scratched so not bothered about going to pubs now until it all calms down
