There's one well-established barber in Swansea who I (very occasionally!!) go to now -- he's just like that, and I'll go back to him again whan I can -- no rush though
I went as recently as November, after all

Let's make a really friendly deal shall we?
You stop disrupting threads needling me with 100% irrelevant digs (and stupid nicknames), and I won't order you what to do either.
Give that a go maybe?
You don't have to like either me or my posts, but you have a record of derailing threads by doing this.
Virtually all other Urbans** manage not to.
**Apologies to all them for my own detail here, but FFS!
(Hope you enjoyed the successful provocation anyway though, Mr Immature!)
That doesn't make you look good, does it?

Who am I to say you're wrong
Nah. That was your local Spoons
Actually don't know. Just made me sick in my mouth so thought everyone else should see it.

The closed one??
Well I suppose we should all have to suffer!
That is the national condition William old boy. All in this together and all that.The closed one??

Except the money, that is not for us
Key drinkers?
I am so sick of daily day drinking since March that the pub is essential and I am on the key drinker list.
I had a dry April (bar The Four Days of Easter!) but not a single completely dry day at home in either May or June ... festivaldeb the same.
Superb-value bottled beer, some of it delivered to the door, doesn't help (it also does!) .....
But TBF, starting before 5 or 6 pm is vanishingly rare here, and we'll make ourselves drink pretty slowly too .....

It's already getting roudy round here, presumably garden parties or something (the weathers a bit shit though?) so it'll be interesting to see what happens tomorrow

Sitting on the bok of the day
Have done a poll about returning to pubs if anyone's interested. I did a poll on another forum and 83% weren't planning to go any time soon, which is not what The Scum and The Daily Heil would have you believe.

Because people live where pubs are and encouraging street drinking without having the pub provide a loo would probably mean turning the residents' front gardens or doorsteps into toilets. If the pub provides a loo, which usually means walking through the whole pub, they might as well open the pub.

No amount of cajolery...
Yeah true, some of the pubs round here have outbuildings for the loos or have them right by the entrance but it's not the case everywhere. We definitely have a severe public toilet shortage too

My wife thinks I work too hard
I'm just going to come out and say it: I've been properly anxious about today. I live in the SW and my mate has a tiny AirBnB place in Cornwall and reckons he's been swamped with interest. There are already camper vans everywhere. I live next to a street full of pubs. We've already had a load of trouble from massive gatherings here. Out R rate is on the increase already.
I know it's silly but I don't feel at all happy about this.

Never ever get the first pint of the day in a pub, it never tastes right. Always get a bottle first and let someone else have the dodge pint.

Don't you think street drinking has been encouraged by keeping offies open and pubs dispensing take aways? Certainly I've seen no absence of street drinking in my recent walks round London

nanook rubs it....
TBH it's the toilets that give me the fear. People in and out , one at a time, to an enclosed cubicle. If you were queuing up and heard an echoey sneeze from within would you really go in next? Yes, it probably would be hay fever, but a game of truth or dare just to have a wee isn't selling the idea to me.

Keep your distance and you will be fine. Let others worry about themselves.

Yeah. In my old flat I'd have been preparing for huge amounts of noise and potential trouble. Too many people acting like they don't know there's anything other than pubs, like on NYE but worse.
The weather's looking bad though - that might mean people make trouble at home instead. Or maybe the pubs will actually be able to manage it. It'snot impossible...

That's true in a way but the added complication is that my elderly parents are trying to move down here at the moment and I just don't think it's safe for them right now.
