A PINT DOWN THE COVID ARMS

The big news is not that the number of deaths in the UK from Covid have reduced, its not that there is a cure that's been discovered, it's not even that we are in for a heatwave or an economic boom. The big news is that the pubs are open!

Yes that's right, Wetherspoons pubs up and down the country from Dover to Hull have served that first pint of refreshing Carling to Terry off the Estate.

The length and breadth of this Sceptred Isle has seen men in fisherman's waistcoats and glasses on strings round their necks bolt their breakfasts in order to get to the pub 'early doors'

We've seen young men slipping into their pristine Reebok classics and heading to the boozer with no more than a slice of toast clutched in their hand and a sip of milk (just to line the stomach)

But not to worry, for those that have had a lie in, the other pubs have opened their doors to the thirsty populace a couple of hours later.

To make things even better Sky and BT are showing Five Premier League games throughout the day and into the evening; perfect to give those that have conked out at midday after having thoroughly imbibed from 8:04am, a second wind.

What a day this promises to be and don't worry folks, Boris Johnson is sure of one thing: That the British Public will show Common Sense!

Cheers!
