The pubs open lads and lasses

[chriswallace85]

The Saltgrass have posted on Facebook that they’re opening at 10am.

Aye - they've been keen as fuck for weeks. In fact, I'm not wholly convinced they've ever been shut.

I do think it’s the point of no return, now the taps of the economy have been turned on again, I can’t see them being turned off in the future. Normality is needed.

Yeah I don’t think they will lock us down again if I’m honest.

 

[Botchie]

I'd be surprised if they hadn't been serving just about every day since lockdown began.

I was in there on Saturday to get me a fatha a keg of rivet catcher. They certainly weren't serving then as I chanced my hand and asked for a sample.

why open on 4th july- a saturday, surely 6th ( monday ) would have been more sensible.

The cynic in me suspects they'd prefer to get the 2nd peak out of the way in time for Christmas.

Well he wouldn't sell me a pint on Saturday

People saying there'll be massive queues for table service, I'm not so sure that'll be the case everywhere. In most central pubs yes, but I'm not entirely sure that many people will stand and queue for a table to become free. Assume most pubs will allow people to reserve in advance.

Fair play, though they've certainly been more open than most.

Bouncers all ower. 20stone & 3 months of pent up aggression on every door.

Table service only? In WMCs?

Don't know how that's going to work - lucky if you can get the steward in our club to pull a pint, never mind bring it to the table for you.

Well it wouldn't be like them to sail close to the wind. But fair enough, even stopped clocks and that.

Have people started to moan yet?

 

[hank williams]

Think I'll stick to my off licence

3 litre bottle of cider £3.99

A pint of cider £2.50 in club

 

[Ciro_DiMarzio]

Can't wait for a pint with my mates but I'm going to give it a few weeks and see how it goes. Will let the professional drinkers have their fun first.

 

[T S Garp]

It will be interesting to once again peer through the windows of the Britannia in Newbottle Street at 10.30 in the morning to observe the old folk ordering table service via their smartphone app

Hew Kev! @Stormo

He’ll be too busy cleaning the fuckin toilets.

 

[rubberface]

Does anyone reckon they’ll do table service in the steels

..i can imagine table service being served in my local Hylton Castle Arms!!!

I might just stick to zoom, save a fortune

the world and his wife would just take the 6th off, whenever they open it will be chaos
