Surely noone is bothering with that pish any more. Couldn't even tell you what the rules are for meeting people, inside or outside. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've spontaneously been in a pub recently, for longer than 2 hours. It's a change on paper only. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Jean King Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 Looking forward to sitting in a pub all night again. Absolutely. Just getting warmed up when they called last orders at 9.30 was shite 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there is no evidence that the NHS will be overwhelmed by critically ill Covid patients, then the default setting should be 'normality'. No, I understand that no matter how loudly any of us shout, we won’t be listened to. That’s been abundantly clear for a long time now If having to wear a mask in shops and on public transport is the price for bigger crowds and pubs opening more or less as normal, then I’ll take it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yip and 2hrs slots and pre booking scrapped. Spontaneous pub visits back. Until you get to the door and every single spaced out table is taken up. Will be no standing at bars etc presumably? -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
super_carson Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 From August self isolation binned provided double vaccinated + two weeks and you get a PCR test? Progress, but still going to be disruptive for business if they have staff needing to take time off for test and waiting for result. Bit of shit-housing aimed at the Tories there as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes- because we just don’t know that hospitals wouldn’t be overwhelmed if pubs were allowed to open until 1am 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smpar Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 I've spontaneously been in a pub recently, for longer than 2 hours. It's a change on paper only.I’ve done that as well, but with every pub now operating as ‘normal’ but with far fewer people allowed in, I can see a lot of places having queues in busy cities and towns. Even some of the most ‘unpopular’ pubs near me have been fully booked during the weekend. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mizfit Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 Can’t think of many pubs in Perth impacted by not being allowed to open beyond midnight as our council is still convinced it’s the 50’s. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smpar Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 Until you get to the door and every single spaced out table is taken up. Will be no standing at bars etc presumably?I’d presume not if distancing is still a rule. Everywhere has a 1 meter rule now, so that nah increase the capacity for some but for many there’ll be no change. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Master Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 1 minute ago, oaksoft said: I'm afraid that it is looking very much like we'll never be free from mask wearing unless people are prepared to break the law. We're already in July. "For some time" strongly suggests not August either. Then we're into September and I just don't see why she would remove them at that point. Another year of this and she'll consider it unnecessary to ever remove them. I think we are stuck with them permanently. How the f**k did we allow it all to come to this? I did say “for now”. That doesn’t mean I agree that it should be “for some time”. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiG Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 Easing of the WFH "requirement" (for want of a better word) postponed until we "move beyond Level 0" around 9 August. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
