Just hairdresser/salon type places. 10 minutes ago, Ron Aldo said: My barber only brought in a booking system after lockdown 1. Helps them with track & trace and to control the number of folk in at one time. Same here, only they realised people quite liked it since all the available times are in green on their booking site so you know when to go and it won't be busy, so they decided to keep it. I like it as well, good just turning up and being served straight away. 15 minutes ago, Marshmallo said: That's quite incredible And quite simply going to be ignored even if it were true. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What we have proposed at the moment doesn't look too much better than last summer. It only seems really good because of how shite the last 5 months have been. It's a decent start to move away from the ultra negative tone, but ultimately this still falls way short of exiting covid restrictions and putting the pandemic behind us. You and Jason can go for a pint with each other and discuss when you were relevant 27 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mizfit Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 That was the positivity we needed. Fingers crossed evidence allows us to move forward slightly quicker. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd also like the evidence for a game of fives being held off another two months. Though being back at the gym for a few weeks beforehand might be a good thing. Overall positive though. You're allowed to go out within your local area, for as long as you want, rather than it having to be for a series of essential reasons as it is now. Most people are likely already doing this, but as with many other restrictions, some people are following it to the letter and therefore basically remaining housebound. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Provided that’s not taking the piss too much, I think that’s fine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bairn88 Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 When dealing with the "hospitality sector", do the gov think all bars and pubs are some trendy brewdog Edinburgh new town gaff with an online booking system? Try coming to any local with working class punters and telling them to leave after they've been there 2 hours and have had 5 pints. No fucking chance 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
