Return to Work

[Theoneandonly]

The way things are going it looks like Taxi drivers will be the only ones not fully back to work July 1

[Rat Catcher]

Govt should be investing a lot more in safer, healthier, environmentally friendlier alternatives. Maybe a 36% health levy on taxi fares?

[dalymount]

Why not go the whole way and make it 50% like F,N

[Rat Catcher]

50% was discount. I'm suggesting a levy aimed at reducing reliance on taxis with a view to eliminating said reliance in accordance with the trade's own belief that it should not be an essential form of public transport. A 50% (if you like) health levy would help push the sector to a luxury/discretionary position as desired by many taxi drivers and dispatchers.

On the first day Pennys reopened over 9000 million girls from the flats stood outside for nearly 24 hours waiting to get knickers and Pyjamas .In town yesterday no que for pennys or any other shop .I wonder will it be the same when the Porter Shops reopen everybody charge down for beer in a glass for the first few days then think fuck this im not a Goldfish drinking behind plastic screens .

Reservations only until the wet pubs open.If I have to queue to get into a pub I'll give it a miss.I'm not 17 anymore.

[Shallowhal]

Punters probably won't bother goin to the pub as the experience of listening to Ermy waffling on with a pint in one hand a betting slip in the other and a copy of the Sun in his arse pocket while he shouts at the telly while watching C4 Racing......just won't be the same!!

[mercenary for hire]

I just can't see the rules being adhered to after 5/6 drinks.I also can't see the barman ejecting customers because they won't socially distance.

The future is more shorter lockdowns.

[Shallowhal]

I reckon they'll be handing out those "your food is ready" devices that vibrate and light up when you enter....after 90mins....gerrout!!

[mercenary for hire]

You'll get folks booking two slots under different names until the wet pubs open.

You can drink 5-6 pints in 105 minutes?

[mercenary for hire]

I can but it's ugly so I don't anymore.I know couples who could easily finish two bottles of wine in 105 minutes.

Some people will see it as a challenge.

I don't think the time limit applies to the wet pubs opening.Or does it?

[dalymount]

I think the reputation we have as a nation of drinkers is richly deserved.we let ourselves down sometimes

[Rat Catcher]

Agreed, DM. FFS... get in that queue, MfH... and when you've swallowed 14 pints off stout in 103 minutes get yourself a big stick for to beat the wife with. Our culture is on the line.

[dalymount]
