    People are flocking to pub gardens here in Somerset and Devon.

    Should anyone be surprised? Pubs are a long standing part of traditional British life, part of communities for hundreds of years. People actually enjoy going to the pub.
    I know! Mad isn't it!!!

    The weather is helping that, let’s face it, it’s been the longest winter ever known to mankind. I’m all for going to a pub but I can’t be arsed with booking time slots, filling out details on arrival, pre ordering drinks via an app and all that guff....

    I've been to four different pub gardens after four different walks and:

    1. I didn't book a time slot with any of them
    2. I didn't fill out any details on arrival
    3. I didn't pre-order drinks via an app.

    In three of the pub gardens our orders were taken via table service and payment was taken by a remote card reader. Drinks were delivered at the table.
    in the remaining case I went to where a till was i.e. a few yards away

    It was a far more pleasurable experience in each case than standing indoors at a bar and trying to work out who should be served first - and then transporting the drinks outside without spilling them.

    Cheer up you grumpy so-and-so

    The last three pubs I went to, the pen and wig, the Heath and the Crwys were all like I stated....bollox to that spending 30 minutes getting in and getting a drink....the discovery was a bit different, we just rocked up sat outside and they came and served us. If they can do that I’m in....city pubs might be slightly different

    Not being able to go to the pub plus message boards on forums such as CCMB (it’s the only one I visit) has made me realise how lucky I’ve been to avoid the unavoidable twats you have to negotiate in pubs usually, during lockdown.

    You probably feel the same.

    Yeah, my nearest pub has this bunch of fat, middle aged, i'll fitting shirt wearing bunch of arseholes who stand by the bar drinking, blocking everyone else who wants to get a drink. The landlord has bants with them because they're always there. *****.

    I use to make the same observations but eventually realised that there were mirrors behind the bar....
