Its like the January sales.

Yep, it was manic. I kept well away.


The pubs will be the first to be blamed if the infection rate rises.


It will of course have nothing to do with gyms, shoppers or snotty nosed
school kids.


Thing with anything were alcohol is involved is that one of its properties
is to remove inhibitions. Social distancing may well be achieved with
everyone sober, but after a few many won't give a f**k about it. And it's
impossible for staff to control this.


That is why the table service was introduced.


Fines if everyone remains at their tables. But after a few, many won't.
