Can’t believe people really that desperate for a drink...

Went for my constitutional after work as per. Got talking to the security at the Stack while getting my coffee from YOLO, they're talking walk-ups so not fully booked. Two lads hoyed out while we were chatting, pissed and obnoxious. Bar88 talking walk-ups also. On the way back was accosted by some some pissed scratter wifey with a chihuahua stuffed in her coat near the white lighthouse. Kept telling me how dangerous her shitty mutt was and asking me for a couple of quid. Her sister (according to her) was passed out on the bench beside her, and the bloke with them was off his tits as well. Tesco carrier full of cheap cooking lager. Predictable, but disappointing all the same. Grannie Annie's quite busy, the corral area outside full.

Good luck to those wanting to get back into it ASAP, but not for me yet.

I've never been "accosted" by anyone in all the years I've lived here, are you sure this wasn't just a bad dream mate?

...that they’ll freeze their balls/flaps off by sitting in boozer car parks?

Any of the SMB booked into their nearest pub car park next week?

How much of a sad life do you have to have to make comments like this?!

People have, for the most part, been locked up for over 3 months with little to do besides going to work, watching TV and going to the supermarket.

It’s almost like people want to see friends and enjoy themselves doing something they haven’t been able to do in a while.

Just because you’re a joyless fuck, doesn’t mean other people have to be.

Yeah there are a few decent ones and I'll pop in a bit later in the year once things have quietened down a bit.

There is a culture in this country, I'm sure you will have noticed, to concentrate on getting alcohol on board. It doesn't seem to happen as much in most other European countries with some exceptions. Their culture is to socialise, maybe even in cafes without alcohol, but there isn't the obsession about cramming as many pints or shots down the Gregory as there is here.

My prediction is that even the nice pubs will have people in there who are a bit lacking in intelligence and emotional development that will just drink to stupid levels this week and it rarely ends well when that happens. They will have been bored off their tits getting pissed at home and they'll be straining at the leash this week. It ruins an evening out having to watch fights, beer glasses getting hoyed around, all the screaming and shouting and chimpanzee like posturing with the arms in the air. I'm just not in a rush to join the show.

Someone’s a little touchy today? Suffering from the chills?
