I can wait for the pubs to open without pre-booking, my priority is to get my hair cut.
I'll be down near Mevagissey next week.

Pics of my local pub's beer garden posted on a local facebook page show beautiful sunshine.but....
This is more likely to be the case!
No way am i attempting to walk down the darkened steps (I'm a last hour of opening drinker) to what'll be a freezing cold beer garden and paying what'll most likely be over 3 quid a pint (expected price rises to make up for their losses during lockdown) for the pleasure! I'll wait till (is it the 17th of May?) when we're allowed to sit in a warm pub. I like warm pubs and warm beer(with at least a half inch head on it,not that southern softy flat stuff!🧐
),not cold beer gardens and cold beer!🧐

When the pubs first went into lockdown, there was more demand than there was capacity to sell cans. When they came out, there was a shortage of keg beer because by then they'd all geared up their canning lines. My fear is that cask beers are going to be increasingly difficult to find. They have a shorter life and they're bigger quantities so they need a steady demand. It's possible that a number of the smaller breweries will opt to concentrate on kegging their beers rather than risk cask beer going to waste.

Snowing here in london but I may go just to tell the last year to go fark it/celebrate the end.
Was on a ride with a cchatter on a cchat ride yesterday who had booked a meal in/out a pub for this week - next week looking better.
Last I heard spoons weren't running a booking system* at all so I will favour them - one of theirs near me has one of the best pub gardens in London - a view, albeit from a distance, of the London Eye, so I may even go there - Richard burton and liz taylor at the height of their celebrity/notoriety once went there for a sunday drink, so good enough for me.
* You can also use their app to check what beers the individual pubs have on before heading out into the snow.

I plead guilty to that sinful pleasure when touring or after a night ride to the coast. By the by, i checked the beers - seems to be very restricted, ruddles and abbot even at some i know to be dependably excellent. Reasons understandable i suppose. May have to wait until May 17.. Pub gardens will be full of the type who wait for a Wetherspoons to open for breakfast.🤷♂️

A pic' of a pub's 'outside area'. I'm not criticizing them at all as they are in business and need to make money,but what's the difference between this and being in the actual pub? It's a pub with plastic walls instead of brick walls.
