I can see exactly how it's going to go, people are gonna get over excited like they haven't had a beer before, all the idiots will be out and I don't think it's gonna be pretty. It's BBQ season and I'm happy having social drinks at home or round someone's. Not too bothered on restaurants either. More than happy to let everyone rush to them. The only thing I will do is get a proper haircut because it's so bloody hot now, I can't deal with it being too long Loads are going to get haircuts as their currently looking like the Jackson 5.

Much rather be in the comfort of own home/garden enjoying the beers. I can just see so many people going absolutely mad because they've been turned away from the pub even though there's quite obviously going to be capacity limits for pub owners and they didn't book ahead. Only time I'd go to a restaurant at the moment is with the other half but even then, might dodge it for that first weekend. Quote

Odeon is reopening on July 4th but I’m giving it a wide berth till we’ve had the baby at the end of the month. Quote

Maybe the most nonsensical rant I've seen. The last woman telling a doctor to go back to school and get educated because she doesn't think she's worthy of her credentials 2 Quote

It really is mate. But I would say expect a two steps forward, one step back situation for a while. Quote

Really don't like the idea of going for a meal or to the pub with distancing and everything else in place, especially as you'll have idiots who simply won't listen in general. Haircuts are fine for me as I just shave it off anyway (not to @DeadLinesman extent though). Quote
Honey Honey Posted June 25, 2020 Posted June 25, 2020 My take is that when rules change the first people to rush out and do what is now allowed are guinea pigs. The impact of their actions is monitored by scientists behind a glass so to speak. I'll give it a couple of weeks for the guinea pigs to show it's ok before I join in. 1 Quote

A bit like waiting a bit before going to the theme park to try out the new Rollercoaster.... give it a month or so in case something happens then when you know it's safe then go... Quote

Said it before, but Odeon re-opens on 4th July. I’ll be giving it till mid/late August before I go. Quote
Bluewolf Posted June 25, 2020 Posted June 25, 2020 Can you imagine what's going to be happening here if this gets passed... totally not thought this through at all Downing Street has confirmed that new laws will be introduced to allow drinking in streets, car parks and outdoor spaces to help the UK's lockdown recovery.

Lol, what the fuck? Why would this be a solution for lockdown recovery? Tbh this just confirms that Boris drinks even more than I do. Quote
Honey Honey Posted June 25, 2020 Posted June 25, 2020 To be honest people are doing it already. Pubs are serving takeaway pints. Walked past one two weeks ago. The village green type space opposite the pub was full of drinkers. People in central London are also doing the 3 common challenge Quote

Huh? Is that legit?! Street drinking and car parks is asking for trouble. How do they expect police to control that when things get a bit lairy? Quote

Can't really blame them if I'm honest even though if you look at it objectively they're definitely breaking the rules. Are there even rules now or are they just guidelines? I've lost track. The UK has been a total mess throughout this, it's bizarre seeing it happen like that when on the island we've just used simple common sense, done the lockdown properly, closed the borders and now we're two weeks into no more social distancing.

Of course not... It was more to have a bit of fun with @Harry when he was talking about the angle of the camera on Bournemouth beach.. Quote
