Pubs now allowed to sell takeaway beer in lockdown 21:44 - Nov 4 with 3075 viewsvapour_trail

Latest govt uturn.

Definitely more of a priority than kids sports.

Will be a relief to a lot of landlords I suppose.

If kids are dipped into a pool of disinfectant before returning home they should be safe enough?

It is hard to fathom when they've been together in school all week.

Are they allowed to do sports in school still?

So is Wilkos I found out today. And Homebase.

Not really a lockdown this is it. And not likely to work.

They’re allowed but it is hugely scaled back.

My boy plays for a good football team, they’re all in good nick generally, but a load of them came back from lockdown 1 overweight and unfit. They’re the active kids. The obesity issues we have in kids are going to be massively ramped up over this winter.

Definately a uturn, but one I actually support. It is also something that needs to stay in effect after the lockdown as the pub industry needs this kind of level playing field with the supermarkets.

Kids sports however, needs to be looked at - if school is okay, then so should social exercise and recreation.

Kids need to be tearing about, agree with that.

That's what they're designed for.

I used to be one and can categorically say I am no longer designed for too much activity!

It mixes bubbles so I get the logic. But:

So will opening pubs for collections. We’re doing that.

But not opening gyms where transmission is negligible. we’re not doing that.

So is opening non essential shops like wilkos. We’re doing that.

Not a lockdown, not a strategy. A shambles.

I agree, when BoZo came in on Sunday I was talking to Spruce and said "How is this a lockdown" - I really don't see it really changing much at all.

Wilkos and Homebase were allowed to open in the full lockdown in March and April. Home repairs were, and are, considered essential.

But no, its so ambiguous, that a lot of people will ignore it.

They were closed for March and April and reopened with restrictions come May.

Edit: Homebase closed through choice apparently. My mistake.

I was about to say can I ask a stupid question but actually I think the rules are so unclear that it's not that stupid.

Where do we stand with pubs and coffee shops? Pubs can now sell takeaway beer and the likes of Costa are open for drive through and takeaway. Same as McDonald's. So are these places exclusively for key workers and those returning from essential shopping/appointments or is it perfectly acceptable to go and drive through Costa, park up and drink your coffee in the car park?

I realise this isn't exactly vital stuff but is it allowed?

I expect so. The pubs that initially opened round my way in June quickly built up a cohort of pissheads remaining in close proximity.

B & Q were allowed to open from the get go but closed for a few weeks whilst they put in place what they believed were the best safety measures. First it was click and collect in the car park. Then it was a queueing system in store and restrictions on numbers.

This time they have all these measures in place so it’s easier to stay open.

It is going to boil down to drive through pubs for key workers only.

And that is all that will be allowed, if you want something from the supermarket then you have to ring them up and get it delivered to the pub, then persuade a key worker to collect it for you. Which they will do if your kids are prepared to run alongside their car carrying their beer.

Eh? Sticky summer exercise?

In the same way that it’s easier to have snowball fights in the summer.

For me, the sweet spot is Late September though to the end of October. Then March and early April.

Not too hot or cold. A nice breeze and a little drizzle. Get my best times in those months.

A scorching hot day is great for the first ten minutes, then it’s a fcukin hard slog.

Speaking as a top endurance athlete/cyclist* - am with you. Spring/Autumn perfect for exercise. Summer heat of day is a fcker, as is the freezing cold days of winter.

Its not hard to understand boss.

People, old or young, are far more likely to want to get outside when it is light and warm, than if it is dark cold and wet.

I guess if they are open they need more trade than those passing on essential journeys.

But this lockdown going to be totally different, and pointless - in the first one the roads were dead for weeks, that won't be the case on this one

so that's just a piss poor excuse to get out of exercising then. summer bodies are made in the winter.
