Pubs

[the other bob wilson]

Vastly reduced capacities; plastic screens between tables; table service only; one-way systems; limits to the numbers of people who can use the toilets at any one time; no mixing between tables; no standing or casual walking around; masks to be worn when visiting the toilets.

Thanks, that says to me they are safer than they were and precautions have been taken, but, when all's said and done, they are still the same enclosed, poorly ventilated environments and while they may be "Covid safer", I don't see that "Covid safe" can be justified - to be fair, that would be impossible.

It's a tough one for me this, because no one liked going to a pub more than me for most of my adult life, but I've found I don't miss them anywhere near as much as I thought I would - it seems to me what's needed here is clear, simple evidence on one side or the other to justify their viewpoint and, as the people changing the rules, the onus should be more on the Welsh Government to do so.

So far, I've not seen anything from either side to win me over to one side of the argument or the other.
